To all those of you have large amounts of BTS on Bter, you get what you deserve. You could have been trading BTS:BitBTC on our own system.


JAJAJAJAJAJ

Do we know whether BTS also have been stolen? Sadly bitsharesblocks.com is down atm too se we can't check. Or can we?

You can browse back through the blocks and look for large transactions. However since it was a cold wallet theft I'm thinking it was a social hack. The only way to steal from a cold wallet is to get the private key. If it was truly a cold wallet that would require physical access by definition. I suspect it was a warm wallet (stored online but not used).

Hopefully they won't take a cut of the remaining coins. Please get the light wallet out ASAP.

7170 BTC got stolen from our cold wallet in this transaction:

720 BTC bounty for chasing it back.

All wallets have been shut down and withdrawals of unaffected coins will be arranged later.

Yeah, but imagine what the world would think if we successfully thwarted a blatantly obvious MtGox type heist by voting as a community to roll back a couple transactions on the blockchian (and the transactions that sprouted from those of course) and returned to them to the affected party (BTER).

We would look like superman-coin!

And of course we could explain to Max Keiser, USA Today, Wall Strett Journal, Bloomberg, etc., that this was something that could only easily be done right now because our coin and community is so small (so no future guarantees)

reimburse those affected via donations.  Of course it would be much easier right now because hardly anybody is using  our blockchain.

What good is our BitShares VOTING capability if we cannot vote to thwart the greatest criminal villain mastermind in BTS history!

We would say that once 1.0 comes out, then it's every man, woman, and centralized exchange for themselves from that point onward or something to that nature.

If we do nothing but take it, then the price of BTS will fall like BTC after MtGox, if we become the first blockchain in history to thwart a crime, then we would gain the "centralized community control margin of safety" that causes Ripple to be such a high market cap that we crave.

BitShares - the first and only safe AND decentralized crypto (Ripple is "safely controlled" but not decentralized).

Safety builds confidence, and investors love confidence and transparency.

worth a brainstorm on that idea for sure!

In case bts in bter hacked, can we vote to fork and reverse the transaction?

Can the block explorer show if there were large movements?

I hope its possible to hardfork and remove them. My laptop can't run the client so I was waiting for the light client to withdraw my balance; and if indeed BTS has been lost that would, well, don't want to think about it now.

BTS must remain fungible. If we start hardforking to take money back from thieves, it undermines fungibility.

Apparently their BTC wallet was emptied (7300BTC). If you follow the transactions you'll see the coins are being split up. Not good.

Same as me, I really didn't want to keep BTS on there but had no choice. This does not look good :(
