Take down the only good exchange out there... not cool, whats the point?
The point can be destroy competitors and to promote other crypto exchanges? Maybe it is DDOS attack conducted by another exchange?
I've seen something like that before in the past. There is always the point hidden.
good point. anyway, the BTC-e's clients are out of their funds now...If the website won't be back tomorrow, it will start a new "Gox" rumor.
Keep in mind that the chinesse volumes are fake. Okcoin appears with over 60% from market and BTC China with 21% while the China gov has banned financial transactions that involve BTC since a year ago.The chinese banks should not deal with BTC exchangers like Okcoin and same with their clients.
