This is pure speculation. It's simple: What percentage of their coins stuck at Bitstamp will customers get back eventually? What do you think or estimate?

I believe Bitstamp will cover all the loss by their own money. That's the only way if Bitstamp want to continue their business. If they let customers suffer for their own fault, nobody would trade on their platform anymore.

ask your money back.

Bitstamp has most of the money in their bank account. All their BTC must be backed by real money so, ask your money back asap.

Their bank will freeze their account in the following days.

100%, they'll cover the losses

Be radical, have principles, be absolute, be that which the bourgeoisie calls an extremist: give yourself without counting or calculating, don't accept what they call ‘the reality of life' and act in such a way that you won't be accepted by that kind of ‘life', never abandon the principle of struggle.

Their reserves are huge, I don't see this being an issue.
Luckily I've withdrawn my stuff on time.

I'm hoping they'll cover their losses because Bitstamp to me really didn't seem like another MT.GOX but you never know sadly, it's annoying, because I was actually hoping to use them to build an international savings account since they deal in dollars, if things don't work out I'll have to explore other options. If we're lucky, they'll actually turn out to be really honest and will refund the lost coins immediately, which would of course be brilliant because it would make Mark Karpeles look like an even bigger asshole than he already is Tongue

They just released a new statement:

Quote
AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE TO OUR CUSTOMERS:

We have temporarily suspended Bitstamp services. Bitstamp customers can rest assured that their bitcoins held with us prior to temporary suspension of services on January 5th (at 9am UTC) are completely safe and will be honored in full.
On January 4th, some of Bitstamp’s operational wallets were compromised, resulting in a loss of less than 19,000 BTC. Upon learning of the breach, we immediately notified all customers that they should no longer make deposits to previously issued bitcoin deposit addresses. To repeat, customers should NOT make any deposits to previously issued bitcoin deposit addresses. As an additional security measure, we suspended our systems while we fully investigate the incident and actively engage with law enforcement officials.
This breach represents a small fraction of Bitstamp’s total bitcoin reserves, the overwhelming majority of which are held in secure offline cold storage systems. We would like to reassure all Bitstamp customers that their balances held prior to our temporary suspension of services will not be affected and will be honored in full.
We appreciate customers’ patience during this disruption of services. 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. Customers can stay informed via updates on our website, on Twitter (@Bitstamp) and through Bitstamp customer support at support@bitstamp.net.

They seriously have enough pocket money to cover a $5 million loss?  Wow, these guys really must be rolling in dough then.

How can it be 100% if the lossed at least 10% of their entire customer funds?

Let's be real unless they have excess coins of their own that they will use to bite the bullet, they are insolvent.

They said balances will be honored in full but not when...

Don't forget they received $10 million investment not so long ago.
