I had 45 btc in an old account and forgot about it. Well I found it. I was able to transmit 3 btc out of it just fine. But when I moved the rest, the show up as 0btc in instawallet but no record of them being moved anywhere. Anyone from instawallet able to help? I already emailed
The site currently shows:
We have detected a security breach. Services are temporarily suspended until we have thoroughly investigated the situation. We will resume services as soon as possible.
There's currently no further information.
Paymium (Instawallet's operator) uses cold storage. It is possible that the delivery of your coins could not complete because there were insufficient funds in their hot wallet -- regardless of any security issue.
Access to their cold storage may be restricted to occurring only during business hours (being that the private keys are stored in a vault at a bank).
I don't know that this is the current situation, but this has been the situation in the past when withdrawal requests were delayed.
If this security incident included a loss of coins, then obviously what I've described above may be moot.
