So it was true, still not a huge blow. Nejc handled it well. Hope they learn something out of it. Mind providing the source from where the statement initially came from? The statement suggests it will take days before the site's online again. Quoting We are working to transfer a secure backup of the Bitstamp site onto a new safe environment and will be bringing this online in the coming days. |

If you're having security issues you might want to wait till they are all plugged before you tell the world about them in full. |

You might do the same if you're stalling for time  |

It seems like the $5M question is whether Stamp has spare BTC to cover the loss, or do they have to buy some of those 18K btcs in the market to return back to their users.
If they make everyone whole and swallow the loss, I wonder how Stamp users will feel? Do you switch because they were hacked, or do you stay loyal because they made everyone whole even after they fucked up. I mean shit happens, its nice to know that they are willing to take a hit to preserve their users' funds (like Blockchain did when some of their wallets were hacked).

Gox was so much cooler. Getting Goxed rolls off the tongue. Getting stamped just doesn't have the same effect. |
