Btcquick said they got bitcoin available 30 minutes ago on tweet. The operation seems OK. We need to wait for the dividends. But I think this time dividends won't be good because of the raising of Bitcoin.
Anyway, the operation is good, we are all good.
Dividends will not be posted for October as we were in the red, more info on this will announced shortly. with an increasing price of bitcoin, that means the 7.5% fee is a very sharp raise to the current price, and personally i would rather just go for the bitstamp bank transfer process, even though that would make some time but at least i got the coin at a good rate my 2 satoshis

I wonder if this no dividends statement is a loophole for the current turmoil btc assets are currently experiencing? No? Too hopeful? Eh I tried I'd like to hear how you guys operated into the red this month. Was it fraudsters again? I thought that was fixed and acknowledged last month? Is it lawyer fees once again?

We are currently working on an investor portal so that bitfunder share holders can verify their shares directly with btcQuick. We will be posting more info on this in the next week or so.
We had a net loss due to a security breach in on of our exchange accounts. After much investigation it has been determined that the individual used social engineering in order to gain access to our email server, reset passwords, and confirm bitcoin withdrawals. We made the decision to halt operations temporarily to perform our investigation and ensure that our servers had not been comprised. We determined that nothing was comprised other than our email and one of our exchange accounts. Our hot wallet was not breached and it is setup to only contain minimal amounts of bitcoin to keep up with orders. We have not received a chargeback request in over 30 days, this is due to the Identity verification Questions and miiCard integration. (Here are the bitcoin address's used to extract the stolen bitcoins 1CetsyAtp8zPUc2qbgCzoN3BnUwJrh1C6r, 126MKqkGBFgS59XGGus5pnC1iRyU96VgRn, 1NXubBjnGtuFYLwYab24ehazj2SoYQhxYA, 14W679mU5eeb5F8sbezoCJfe4UoiE2ENNu, 1A3vMK42Y43oecXmaXc4tY7boeecPeEF4h).
We had partnered with inputs.io to allow instant payments to our users, since hearing about their security breach we have ceased the ability to funds those accounts.
Moving forward we will continue to improve our service and focus on security improvements. We will be moving away from Google Checkout on november 20th as their Digital Goods platform does not allow us to keep up with our current volume (due to a 30day payout schedule). We have several other options lined up to takes it place. We will be requiring two factor (SMS or Google Auth) on all btcQuick accounts in the coming weeks. It is unfortunate that bitcoins services experience hacking attempts but it speaks to the growing legitimacy of bitcoin. We hope that we can continue to service our customers around the world as more and more people hear about bitcoin.
Thanks, Ascension

Frankly, as an investor in Bitcoin sphere, I'm tired of moving about exchanges to be closed, direct share sounds like a once for all solution. I'm holding some shares of BTCquick, above is just my personal opinion.

The biggest mistake they made is that it seems the 2FA is not enabled (I guess now almost all exchanges support 2FA) at least for password reset. Kind of unforgivable.

Isn't the "we've been hax0red" scam pretty much burnt down by now? I suggest a little-used variant: "We've been h4xd by Da Goberment."

BtcQuick and Input.IO are different.
We are all customers of Input.IO, so claiming hacking does not help the operator much. Anyway, the operator has to compensate the loss of all customers.
But in BtcQuick's case, we are investors. Whether investors should take the risk of hacking is not so clear. Therefore, whether Ascension will compensate the investors loss is also unclear. But previously he did not compensate the loss caused by charge back. Therefore, it is more likely he will not compensate the loss this time. In this case, claiming 'hacking' becomes convenient to the operator. The shareholders should at least ask for more evidence of the hacking rather than taking the words blindly.

We need more transparency on the information....without evidences anything can be made up.....
