I responded with this email: Dear Sirs,
For fourth time I am explaining you I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ORIGINAL WITHDRAWAL CONFIRMATION EMAIL due to temporarily failure of email provider at the time.
Is it your position that this entitles you to keep my money?

This is response I have just received from BTC-E support: Good afternoon, and you though received one notice on this Email ( m8r-koe8rk@mailinator.com). If there is no that we recommend to replace on Gmail.com Ticket Details Ticket ID: MPZ-338-29139 Department: Bitcoin Type: Issue Status: In Progress Priority: Normal Support Center: https://hdbtce.kayako.com I do not want any patronizing lessons on what I shall or shall not do. I do not want you to tell me that I need to use another email (even if it might be a good idea). I do not want you to tell me to check my spam folder (as suggested by you in your previous response to my support request). I do not want you to explain me how to change settings on your website on profile page (as suggested by you in your previous response to my support request). None of those actions returns me 2.14 BTC you have [edited]. I simply want my 2.14 BTC back, that is all. No amount of BS will resolve it. You can do either of 3 things to resolve this matter: 1. Return 2.14 BTC back to my BTC-E account. 2. Resend the withdrawal confirmation email. 3. Send 2.14 BTC to original destination BTC address without any email confirmation. I understand your response as this: "You have lost your confirmation email! Haha! Your money are now ours you will never see it again, sucker!"

Still not have my problem solved either. I am a patient guy. But this more and more looks like fraud by refusal to provide essential customer support. I want my bitcoins back. BTC-E please fix this. Another ticket I have sent them using their "support system" Dear Sirs,
I attempted to withdraw some BTC, but have not received confirmation email. It was irrecoverably lost due temporary failure of my email provider. As result you have taken about 2.14 BTC from my account, I have not received it, You still have my 2.14 BTC and continue to ignore my multiply support requests as such depriving me from use of my property for your benefit. This is also called theft and fraud. As you might see after a week of trying to get your attention and about after about 10 attempts to get in touch with you using a variety of methods nothing has been done about it yet. Please sort it out.
Could you please return my 2.14 BTC to my account.
Account: *** email: *** amount lost/stolen: ~ 2.14 BTC BTC address: ***
It is close to the point where any further attempts of trying to resolve this are becoming counterproductive as time spent on this worth more than 200$ by now. I guess I am forced into position of writing this off as a loss and simply going public and accusing BTC-E [edited out] publicly.

Sorry to hear about this. This is still not too late to start using best practices as relevant to passwords and aimed for a regular internet user. I am not even talking about really sensitive stuff here. 1. Never use the same password in more than one place. 2. Use passwords managers like keepass and lastpass. 3. Encrypt all or most sensitive parts of your hard drives using software such as truecrypt etc... 4. Use very strong and long pass phrases (6-10 words plus some padding at least) that you can remember for few important passwords like for keepass, truecrypt, lastpass, your main email, bitcoin wallets. 5. Use auto generated passwords for everything else (keepass,lastpass will help ya) 6. If you can remember a password it is a bad password. With a few exceptions as in 4. Here is an example of a password that is good: nbJbvrTXgWZDSYl15jT6jgnk 7. And finally: - Doctor, how do I make sure that I do not get pregnant? - Drink lots of milk. - ... before or after? - Instead of. Think about the above when you download stuff from the net and go to bad neighborhoods. Sorry that I cannot help you with this any more than by typing this stuff again.

Vladimir on btc-e? Now I know who make all those walls there nahh I am just dumping a a few LTC mined up by a few remnant GPUs, no biggie.. It seems I was right not trusting any 3rd party with amount bigger than Hitler club membership. Ironically just about 2.1 BTC is the amount "frozen" by them here. Of course, not a single LTC or any other crapcoin is likely to be sent by me to btc-e for time being. It looks I gonna have to build a decent exchange myself now before I can dump whatever litecoins get accumulated meanwhile. Anyway, I think they will sort it out eventually.

https://community.bitfinex.com/showthread.php/61-rooting-trough-btc-e-exchange here is did express my view to add btc-e to bitfinex so this post it has to do whit my personal experience with btc-e few days ago i wanted to take some BTC out of BTC-E after 2 days i got my email confirmed and i proceed to ask for a withdrawal but this dont get processed so i emailed support and to my "surprise" support tells me that i cant take funds out because i dont have my email confirmed so dear btc-e save yourself some money and make a script that reply random premade emails when someone contact support Same shit here. I have not received confirmation email for a small withdrawal. I have no reason to doubt that they sent that email as I know for sure that my email provider turned out to be a complete asshat and in their infinite withdom for a few days were sending all incoming email into /dev/null without any hope to recover lost emails. Now finally my email providers have sorted their shit out and I am receiving emails to the email address listed in account on btc-e. Now however I am out of a few BTC which 1. Were removed from my account by btc-e. 2. Not received by me. There are 3 very easy ways for btc-e to fix it: 1. Send that transfer without email confirmation. Based on the support request. (Same BTC address as many previous withdrawals) 2. Resend withdrawal confirmation email 3. Return the funds into the account. Easy right? This is what I receive from their "support" in response to my reasonable request: Good afternoon, for mail confirmation you need to come into your profile and to confirm mail - https://btc-e.com/profile#edit/home as check contents of the spam folder at you in mail. Ticket Details Ticket ID: RXT-102-16525 Department: Bitcoin Type: Issue Status: In Progress Priority: Normal Support Center: http://hdbtce.kayako.com Seriously? Fix settings in your profile page and check your spam folder? BTC-E please do get this sorted. It is not that hard, is it?

Maybe I do not get something and if so please do correct me. However, I understand that 80% of devcoins mined goes somehow to a group of people called "developers". Plus there are all these insane changes of decimal points etc... I simply do not understand how this can ever worth anything more than 0. What's the point for anyone to mine a single block and why would anyone with any common sense spend a single penny on this BS.
They took elegant Bitcoin model and cut balls off of it. No fair startup subsidy to miners, inflation, funneling mining bonuses to a select group of people. Makes no sense to me at all. I simply do not understand how would anyone in his right mind believe that this could be somehow pegged to BTC with some multiplier/divisor.
This dev coin idea is braindead, stillborn and a waste of electrons or maybe I just do not get it.
If I am ever in a charitable mood I would donate with something that actually has value i.e. Bitcoin.
I suppose it has a useful side effect of getting some inflationistas off our backs and into their own currency.

SolidShitCoin has served its purpose (to pump and dump pre and early mined coins onto suckers). There is not need for it anymore. It is dead. Those who left holding the bag, well... move on.

I would not put a single penny into this project. In fact I regret that I allowed MNW to waste almost one year of my life with all his numerous projects. Stay away from this.

I think.
1. No CPU friendly, for keep botnets away. 2. Only GPU Friendly, not FPGA nor ASIC.
or a duble parameter.
GPU + CPU = SHA(xxx)+sCrypt(x) ? so this way only "personal pc's" can mine. (and tons of good pc's)
well, maybe i'm telling a dumbass thing but might work.
Yep good start. Something like Sha256(nonce+Sha512(nonce+Tiger(nonce+Whirpool(nonce+GOST(nonce+scrypt(nonce+bcrypt(nonce+data)))))) perhaps? or some proof of work based on HDD space as one guy proposed elsewhere
