I only had 20FTC on there, so no big deal, still annoys me on principle though.

Bter.com seems to be working well.

If the site disappears with our coins I hope it at least helps to set an example for people to stay away from a lot of the new pump and dump coins.

Uhhh,,, I don't think they're a scam.  They seem legit coming from the fact that they had things like google authenticator to prevent unauthorized withdrawal.

But the site owner should post an update or something.

Site owner's name is 'mugen' by the way.

Calm down ... Mugen is not a scammer.
He's had many problems with the websites but he never stole a single coin.
The site will be back and you will get your coins.

I doubt he/she is a scammer. That being said: hardware and software die. Dont know what this was run on, or if it was backed up. That is my concern 99% of the time, not scammers.

The SSL was gone for a while but it's back on the domain. Hopefully it will be back up soon.

We can have light speed alt.coins with a block each nanosecond, but you will have to wait 24/48 hs to withdraw your funds, ehehe.

I wouldn't can it a scam site.  More like it wasn't designed to handle the load, which was the reason it crash a few weeks ago.  He was supposed to upgrade the server or something, but apparently either it wasn't enough or he being ddos or something.  In any case it shows that this exchange is not the most professional place to keep your coins.

No, 4500 FC = lol attack.

4500 LTC would be a panic attack... I hope noone had that much in there.

Best is to never have more than 1/2 BTCs in any service without very very well reputation. And, anyway try to have always your coins in your power...

step 5 close down account take coins as soon as vircurex opens up
step 6 sell on vircurex

Perhaps. Though I hope not for that sake of many people.

I'll be more worried when my coins leave the wallet they're still in. So far that has not happened.

Perhaps a mass of people tried to withdraw to move to Virc. Or possibly the trading volume increased to the point the application couldn't handle. Or maybe the site was maliciously DoS'd with many micro-trades as has been seen on other and larger exchanges.

I'm not ready to call it a scam just yet. Could be, but not ready to call it as such.

I feel this would just result in a massive crash in value of the coins, I don't believe anyone could make a particularly meaningful profit doing this so early in a coins history. This is however just my opinion.

Nonsense. Google authenticator was really easy to use.

Not sure why anyone would store coins on a website anyway, should be an exchange not a backup wallet.

Hope they open again, I found the quite decent.
