Hmm. Would it be a surprise if this was true? American law enforcement had plenty of fun on Silk Road.

It's certainly doing no favours for Russia's image to the outside world but they seem to be long past minding about that.

it's a very interesting version of events, i'll say that much. unfortunately all the evidence is circumstantial and as expected, everyone implicated (including the russian government) is refusing to comment or denying involvement.

we don't know for sure that Malofeev and Nemkin are related to the supposed FSB operation that cleaned out WEX. meanwhile, this exchange "vladex" still doesn't exist, which sort of casts doubt on the whole story.

at this point, i don't think we'll ever find out the whole truth---especially if it really involves the FSB.

I'm glad that I got out before things went dark. I lost around 15-20% of my funds, but that's a small price to pay compared to the total loss for the majority of other users.

I'm tired of hearing the name Mt.Gox. Markets are already uneasy. Bitcoin did not catch a good uptrend. Why does this name come up all the time? The issue of hacking has not been resolved for years. Why is that? Give people the money and this effect is over.

I would not expect lots of replies to this topic, there are people recovering from the grief of this, people who have totally recovered, do not reopen wounds, people committed suicide, what i lost was not as much as what others lost, but if converted today with the current btc price or last year when btc was all time high i would be well, GREAT! Hell, song was made about this, people got depressed.

Then Cryptsy, oh they did a number on us too, and my btc, then i got an email

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA

NOTICE OF PROPOSED PARTIAL SETTLEMENTS OF CLASS ACTION,
PENDENCY OF CLASS ACTION, FAIRNESS HEARING, AND RIGHT TO APPEAR

If you are a CRYPTSY account holder and are unable to access your CRYPTOCURRENCY, you could get money from two different class action settlements, and an ongoing class action lawsuit may affect your rights.
Please read this notice carefully.

A court authorized this notice. This is not a solicitation from a lawyer.

Then the lengthy letter all the way down, not going to bore anyone but let the wounds created just heal, this people have no heart but then again i learnt a valuable lesson never ever leave your money in an exchange, this says i can't sleep if i have money in an exchange, i get nervous and night sweats.

The lawyers will say they can recover it because they want to have their high fees paid and find it or not they will profit either way. So we cant listen to what they say. If they have found people that have received stolen bitcoin how did they do that and if they know so much why are there no arrests? I would not bet on them getting any funds back.

Alexander Vinik is involved in this exchange and this makes him leave. Where there is a lot of money, there is a lot of hype. What is the matter, there is a person, he himself received these funds and has the full right to dispose of them in further actions.

I don't understand what you want to say. You do know though that Alexander Vinnik was arrested in Greece in 2017 and will probably be extradited to France (and consequently to the US)? Also how exactly he has any right over stolen funds? What exactly is your point?

I gotta say I have to merit you just for the fact your Moniker made me laugh.
