Cryptsy has had problems for some time now and it’s time to let everybody know exactly why. These problems were NOT because of any recent phishing attacks, or even a ddos attack, nor does it have anything to do with me personally.
...
These are the approximate figures taken:
Bitcoin: 13,000 BTC
Litecoin: 300,000 LTC
Bizarrely, Vern offered three options for bringing the matter to a close:
Here are our options:
1. We shut down the website and file bankruptcy, letting users file claims via the bankruptcy process and letting the court make the disbursements.
- or –
2. Somebody else comes in to purchase and run Cryptsy while also making good on requested withdrawals.
- or –
3. If somehow we are able to re-aquire the stolen funds, then we allow all withdrawal requests to process.
I’m obviously open to any other ideas people may have on this.
