How much have you all lost?

we need to start a public demand for payback of lost funds. This is the worst customer support I've ever heard of in my life. This needs to go public and I'm working on a press release to put out to all major publications to warn people not to use btc-e

Please PM me your email or just post here publicly if you would like to be involved in this.

Well i didn't lose much
Just 30 ltc. But it still means a lot to me, I feel scammed and it was not because of my own mistake. I'm lucky i have stashed the rest of my coins in a safe place. But i totally lots faith in crypto currencies  Sad

How is it possible to say something so silly?

If a thief robs your cash on the street, will you totally loose your faith in "money"?

I've been banned from chat for reporting that I cannot withdraw my LTC

FWIW, I have just withdrawn some LTC successfully.

No but if my money worths 1/3 of it's yesterday's price, i WILL lose faith in my money.
Specially if i see thieves stealing mine and others' moneys

Well, so it is very easy for the FED to eliminate any cryptocurrency: they just have to pump and dump it.

Stop thinking in terms of fiat money, cryptocurrencies are about freedom, just use them to buy goods and services and just invest them what you can afford to loose.

And yet BTC is up over 500% since q1. Has your fiat EVER produced that kind of return? Has it EVER done anything but go down in value?

You are not helping.. I was not an early adapter like you were, i mined my btc from 0.01 btc daily and i didn't exactly have that kind of money to waste 30000$ on an asic, and i am so glad i didn't.
Most of it gone anyway, i'm just stuck with an electricity bill that's all

You're still an early adopter, this is a game that will be played in the long run, Bitcoin is still a newborn and its economy is like a peanut... And what we were having was clearly a crazy speculative bubble in its purest form, which means that it's GREAT that it popped.

Don't be silly, is fiat which is not to be trusted. Just remember to make your investments wisely and do not invest what you cannot afford to loose.

I know what you are talking about, and i would have completely agreed with you if you said that to me yesterday
However, my electricity bill is due tomorrow and those 30 ltc which i was robbed off was exactly in my btc-e to pay for the bill. Instead btc-e screws up and not only i lose 30 of my coins but now i have to sell the rest of my coins cheap because i have to have electricity to live for the next month.
And i need to sell about all of my current coins (78.8 ltc) plus some of my own to afford the bill if the price don't go up. Well bad start for a newbie if you ask me.

Cool thanks for the update.. hopefully my missing coins will be somewhere..

However... I withdrew some BTC to Gox about an hour ago and nothing has shown at Gox yet.

May be a Gox problem though.

This is more in the same ballpark of what I lost ( 200BTC )

I'm putting together a press release, PM me if you want to get involved? I would love to go over some of the evidence with you...

Same way anyone else would deal with losing $45,000 (value at the time of theft) ...not well.

I have the can't login problem. Only had a small amount of litecoin at btc-e thankfully. Very sorry to hear about the large amounts at stake here.

Anger is justified, but if it helps, this is pretty standard behaviour for btce. Complete confusion, two word "support" messages, missing coins... Hopefully this plays out ok in the end. They covered everyone's missing coins in the other major breach, right? I try to be optimistic. Good luck everybody.

Keep clam & hodl on

I hate to be that guy, but if youre banking your utilities on the value of ltc, then you are in serious need of some financial counseling bud.
