For what it's worth, I was able to withdraw BTC from my BitFloor account with no difficulty. Luckily I had no USD in my account (well, 34¢ actually). I imagine it will be a tense couple of days for anyone who had a large amount in there, but for the moment I see no reason to worry you won't get your money back.

Very disappointing though, IMHO this was the easiest exchange to use.
According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

Call me a conspiracy theorist if you like, but this really does seem like a co-ordinated attack on bitcoin exchanges by the banks.

You don't think the tremendous increase in interest in bitcoin over the last few weeks might not have translated into a tremendous increase in the amount of cash deposits going into exchanges' accounts which might have lead to a lot of red flags going up, quite independently?

well, I'm feeling better about this now - they verified my ACH withdrawal method within hours, and my cash withdrawal request is now "pending". Looks like they are, indeed, taking care of cash deposits as best they can. Still skeptical, but I'm no longer writing it off as a total loss. We'll see in a few days if it shows up at the bank.

I just hope they took no profits in cash so it's not a "first come first served" situation for withdrawals.

I have stopped receiving replies to my emails to support. Still no ACH deposit corresponding to my withdrawal request.

Lack of info is disheartening. The least they could do is say "we're still waiting", but it looks to me like they ran off with the money.

Ouch that is not good to hear. Have you considered calling Roman on the phone?

didn't know there was a number to call... I've kinda written it off as a loss now, but if you happen to know of a way to get a hold of them another way, that'd be great
