Lose >99% BTC Lose >40% fiat Lose database along with customer identity data
Well, Emptygox couldn't possibly have done a much worse job than this.
The statement is a joke. How come they did not realize until a few days ago that there was a huge discrepancy between the money they were holding in their bank and the money deposited by their customers? You all know this is BS and simply cannot happen. They knew very well they had less than they were supposed to, they just decided to run on fractional reserve and spent customers money to cover their own operational expenses. I wouldn't be surprised if Karpeles even cashed out dividends at some point while knowing the company was virtually bankrupt.

How could they lose fiat? I understand they lost BTC due to transaction error, but fiat? Did they have database unencrypted? They may have used client's fiat to buy bitcoin or speculate. They don't care the hole in fiat anyway, as they could blame their bank / DHS / CoinLab

On BFX if a market sell order triggers a stop loss which gets priority?

Yeah....I got squeezed out my short position. Since this was all on the back of a 3 million (3K BTC) bidding chip on Bitfinex (routed through Stamp), I will not be going long however until $580 has proven itself as support. This wasn't organic market forces. This was uncertain buyers or possibly shorters being squeezed out of their positions by big scary Bid wall. Wisest thing for any small player to do right now is keep away. This isn't about 'the market', but about the whim of some whale. Does he want Bitcoin to go higher, cos he just loves Bitcoin.....or cos he wants to take a dump a much higher prices?

Just by insider trading and arbitraging he would have earned a lot.

If they started using their customers money for anything other than customer transactions for the customer whose money it is , then that is co-mingling of funds, which is a breach of fiduciary duty.

According to sturle they "didn't need" to run on fractional reserve as they did "so much money" in fees that they could have covered ANY hole caused by seizures, misappropriations and whatnot. My reply: never underestimate greed and incompetence. Bad management can destroy the biggest company in the world.

Undoubtedly there is something criminal otherwise one couldn't have lost 20M USD.

It isn't credible that they didn't notice the fiat hole before.
