How big do you think is the risk of just leaving 200+ coins on Stamp and wait for the next bubble? I mean if they come back, they effectively proven themselves to be trustworthy and pull through with their promises. And I bet they will increase their security measures even further.

Completely moved to BTC-E. Bitstamp will have to prove they are here to stay.

But BTC-E??? I mean they have proven to be pretty reliable and not to mess with peoples' BTC. But the people behind the exchange are completely unknown, if they wanted to disappear, I don't think anyone knew where to look for them. I don't know if that's the best choice then. What about Kraken?

Finally, Bitstamp is back, but the whole "hack" thing is too shady, you know. We'll probably never be lucky enough to know the real story behind the scenes. It all might be just an epic manipulation going on there. With BTC-E, I'm confident enough to store or trade some coins. Besides, in the Bitcoin world, you can trust nobody these days. Cons can't wait to get their hands on your coins.

...
I have been speaking to a friend of mine who could be considered a whale.
He told me he is picking up 40k right now to prepare as the price is going to go through the roof.

40k? Tell your ghetto friend that I talked to my friend, a real whale, and he told me he's dumping 180k.

the only problem with btc-e is that nobody knows all that much about it and theres very little regulation in that part of the world so they could do a gox if they felt like it at any time and im not comfortable with that

until theyre are insured exchanges i wont be trading because to make 0.5% or 1%  or whatever  i need to risk 100% due to hacks and gox like stunts and i think this is keeping big fish investors out of  btc atm

At first I thought I would panic buy, then panic sell. Then I remembered that bitcoin doesn't quite react the same way like it used to. So now I will probably do nothing, but request my fiat withdrawal on monday.
