CRYPTSY stopping withdraw locking accounts without notifying users! Class Action

[thunderjet]

I was staying out of this for a while to keep my head (and the thread) cleaner... but I just had to chime in...


Anyone been to www.bitebi9.com today?

LOLOLOLOLOLOL

Looks like the craptsy crew screwed the Chinese customers over too! 

Lol yap it gone  or he kidnap hahahahahaha

As I see Bitebi9 changed provider and goes to HICHINA.They previously used 5 servers,now only 2.
Liu Xiuxia is still registrant,but site is inactive.

http://www.whoismind.com/whois/bitebi9.com.html

do you think they come back

It looks like they are moving site on new servers,but it is suspicious they did not put any information on index page or on Twitter. We will see for few days.

Cryptsy "hacker" made big move yesterday.

In multiple transactions he moved 463 BTC ~ 208.000 dollars from the wallet where are BTCs obtained from selling altcoins.He is constantly using TOR with exit node on IP 185.38.14.215

He is not moving BTCs on exchanges,but sending them in small amounts on multiple single addresses(every address got only 1 input transaction) trying to shake off and confuse blockchain investigators.Obviously he thinks that will be much harder to monitor so many addresses,but because they have same point of origin, it is not nearly as hard as he thinks.

any way to monitor bitebi9 wallets and see if transactions in ultimately add up to sum of those moving out from the stolen funds?

Are you writing the FBI's guide to tracking cryptocurrency movements?

Bitebi9 BTC wallet is virtually dead.He took all of BTCs from it on 13th.April - 43.41 BTC and sent them to BTCC China to sell

Last transaction was on 26th April and now there is 4.5 BTC in it:

He has alimony expenses plus he hired the best lawyer for scam cases in Florida and Iam sure it cost a lot.Would be interesting if he is paying his former wife lawyers,because she is accused too.

Yesterday was May 6.  Some big movement in the court case May 1 to May 5. May 6 court information will show up later. I think you will find the reason or cause of this movement of btc inside these court documents

In that case keep an eye on the exchanges that swap BTC to USD.  All you need is one amount to match that movement into an exchange that does BTC USD to know where he is hiding his money. I doubt his lawyer is accepting BTC payment or doing conversions for him. Or his clever enough to think to move btc to cny to usd or any other mix.

No,that guide is for mine eyes only.

He cash out till now probably all BTCs taken after Cryptsy theft. 6000 BTC for the house and SUVs,764 BTC for Bitebi9 opening,few thousands for salaries of Cryptsy employees and various exchange expenses,he paid his wife lawyers during divorce lawsuit and tax for big house.

Dont forget he tried to move and sell UNOs in April,just 2 days before receivership.These Unos were worth ~ 50.000 dollars

Bitebi9 brought to him only expenses,he gave all his assets and bank accounts in US to his former wife.Now he must pay alimony,his lawyer,Chinese lover, ... just expenses and no incomes.

Bitebi9 closure is just one example that he is in serious cash shortage.He took 43 BTCs from Bitebi9 wallet,so if he is a hacker he has no choice but to take BTCs from stolen altcoins,because BTCs from Cryptsy cold wallet are too hot.Hacker does not use mixers,because he is afraid that they will steal BTCs from him and if he put them directly on exchanges they will seize them.

D1P3 - TNABC 2015 - PAUL VERNON CEO CRYPTSY From Bitcoin to Dogecoin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jdOEgAG8PLU

Here's Paul Vernon's timeline (you're not gonna believe this!):

2011: Fires up a GPU in the living room. Wife mad cause it made too much noise, blah blah blah. Paul quits Bitcoin end of year.

2012: Paul registers Cryptsy.com (he did that mention this fact).

2013: (... wait for it ...) Paul rediscovers Bitcoin via some article. Pulls out the old GPU and fires it back up, but no bitcoins (he figured out why - ASICs). He found an old wallet and realized he was rich. (... here it comes ...) (paraphrased) "This was about the time that Litecoin was created sparking my interest anew. So, back to BitcoinTalk I cruised."

For those slow and didn't catch it:

Via Wikipedia: Litecoin   Date of introduction   7 October 2011; 4 years ago

To be fair to Paul, I'm only 5 minutes into the 20 minute video, so perhaps he corrected his mistake somewhere within.

EDIT: Holy fuckin' shit! (~5:15 minute mark) He just said that after finding Litecoin (2013) on a thread, he reworked his GPU and starting mining litcoins. It was easy because the difficulty was low and not many people were mining it. Paul Vernon has lost his motherfuckin' mind!

Thanks to HippiTech's post at Feathercoin, I watched above youtube video.
It surprised me Paul confessed two things during the talk:
1. 2min10: Paul confessed with bitcoin he gets "to feel like a hacker".
So Paul translated his feelings (words) into deeds?!

2.6min43: "Paul confessed he generates about 20 different coins, and makes a new coin when the difficulty for mining gets to high".
It is many times discussed in this thread that cryptsy listed a lot of "in house scam coins" created by their own developers copy coin cloners, but it is nice to hear it straight from his mouth.

About his story fairytale about litecoin, Paul is at least consistent. (that he discovered and mined LTC not earlier than 2013):

With the help of BitJohn (John Hammes) leading the pack from his office at the edge of an Afghanistan war zone, in just a couple months, Paul Vernon went from mining Litecoin and creating a pool till that was no longer fruitful (a lie, for it was basically no longer fruitful), to ~20 other altcoin pools via requests from its users, to starting an exchange, again, via requests from its users, opening Cryptsy on May 20, 2013, sans a single employee until circa October 2013.

Paul Vernon registered Cryptsy in February 2012, while on break from mining bitcoins in 2011. How many bitcoins did Paul mine with his GPU miners in 2011? ONLY 10 BTC before putting the rigs away and forgetting about the coins till he read about Bitcoin again in 2013, but for some reason registered cryptsy.com in early 2012. All them GPUs, all the heat, and all the noise, Paul Vernon was able to ONLY muster up 10 BTC while the rest of the community was fairing much better with their setups.

At the time of the interview and Paul's talk, nobody questioned his timeline. But if they had, perhaps the Cryptsy fiasco could've been avoided. I say perhaps because we have Marshall Long, Nick Spanos, Leroy Fodor and Craig Wright all proclaiming to be trading bitcoins in 2009 when this forum had ONLY 17 (definitely not 20) registered users, yet nobody 'cept myself (more or less) bringing to light that their claims are also 100% lies, espoused so to move forward their respective nefarious activities. Hell, theymos didn't even register till February 08, 2010, as this forum's 35th user.

[Mathgamain]

So when is Vern gona reopen C ?

So when is Vern gona reopen C ?

After the C-Section 8 bankruptcy, Paul Vernon will tweet that it's once again open for business. Make that BitJohn (John Hammes) will first mention a month in advance that the new and improved Cryptsy will be opening soon.

Bitebi9 is online again,though reduced from 5 to 2 servers and daily volume of $0.8


Just look at Bitebi 9 security page about their organization:

"Employees must pass a criminal background check as part of the hiring process. We use separate two factor authentication for admin level services. "

Impressive. This amount of trading must be earning enough fees to recover the $10m loss before the end of the universe.
