He'll likely announce on Saturday he was hacked after he checks into a nice hotel in Belize tomorrow.
If you guys think you're getting your assets back I'd say the odds are low but not impossible.
In any case, even if he brings it back the panic selling will be epic and damage the stocks to the point of uselessness.

Nefario is probably negotiating a plea arrangement with the SEC.

All of these recents scams and fuck-ups are making Bitcoin look like a complete joke. Is there even one single reliable Bitcoin business/service/website out there? Nefario is probably negotiating a plea arrangement with the SEC.
Its a UK company, not a US one, the SEC have nothing to do with them & don't regulate them. |

Maybe they are implementing an update, and had to shut the site down to do the switch over and check for bugs? (Although, I am not sure why they would need two full days to do that?)
They might be migrating servers, and I hope its just updates.
They've made updates before. There is no reason for them not to state that very fact. Everything that's been happening with GLBSE lately stinks of law intervention. Nefario would in no way willingly act like this. I hope he's submitting because he knows it will be better for all of us this way. I don't know anything about this. I am extremely irritated with Nefario.
That's not a good sign.  |

This is the second reference to the SEC that i've seen between the two GLBSE threads going on right now. Does someone have any credible information on this? If not, lets hold the FUD so when things come back online we don't have a massive value crash on the market. Thanks. |

Very true, someone call the S.E.C guy and ask him. I did it last time and got blasted for it, it's someone else's turn lol |

That doesn't mean anything, he didn't say he wouldn't put it back online either. But he didn't say he would, there's no return of service announcement, the only thing confirmed is an announcement, so don't bank on restoration of service. That does mean something. |

Panic as in we've lost all our BTC or panic as in we should be expecting our uncle SEC to knock on our door? |

Very true, someone call the S.E.C guy and ask him. I did it last time and got blasted for it, it's someone else's turn lol Yes, the SEC is looking into a variety of issues surrounding bitcoin. And yes, he is no longer interested in taking hysterical phone calls from any of us. The next round of calls will be outgoing from them and will include subpoenas for depositions. This thing is starting to look very, very ugly. |

Why do people keep mentioning the SEC? The S.E.C regulate in the US only. GLBSE is a registered company in the UK (based in Lancashire IIRC), they are regulated by the UK FSA (well, are subject to regulation by them). |

I think people keep saying SEC because of information coming from IRC. Also as an American I am fully aware of how our government has no problem in applying muscle towards other countries to get them to do what we want and the driving force behind that would be the SEC. |

Surely it would be the FSA not the SEC - it's the FSA he was trying to get GLBSE regulated with.
It's not gonna be a hosting issue - if so they could just say so. The refusal to give any indication of the reason is a pretty clear indication that they're having to get lawyered up before giving any information - meaning some regulatory body (e.g. the FSA) or LE is on their case.
Think I'd actually be more confident about getting funds back if they HAD been hacked.

Companies, especially registered legit companies, that are based elsewhere, but offer investment opportunities in the US are indeed subject to SEC regulation.
This has been the 800 pound gorilla for all investments bitcoinesque, and it appears that perhaps we have now come of age and are going to have to look at playing lawlessly within the rules.

GLBSE is offline
For those worried about their bitcoin, please calm yourselves there has been no hack and your coins are safe and all accounted for.
I apologize for the lack of notice and the downtime, but there isn't much choice. We will update our users on Saturday.
At least not one satoshi from me touched GLBSE never. |
