So Cryptsy was really not whole ? Pulled a Gox? If that is true then guess what? BTC image is going to be damaged big time, and much worse than Gox era.

No one gives a shit about Cryptsy. I don't think there was single moment in time where they weren't a shit hole experiencing problems. Also, they were hacked a year and a half ago, and the coins have been sitting since.

I know they had issues from the start, and that was the main reason I stopped using them. I got into the crypto game around the time it got too expensive to mine via video cards, so I went scrypt, made my BTC that way. But they were the only real exchange at the time that did the alts, and man, I hated nothing more than getting ready to deposit coins while there was a pump only for the coins to go into limbo for days and by that time it was too late.

Not really! Gox was much much worse!

Maybe, as the amount yes, but to be honest, the whole exchange thing was to have matured enough to the point where people should not have to worry about such examples of this. There has been more than enough time for exchanges to get their shit together so this was not to happen again. Sure, this might have happened in 2014, but just now coming out with this info is just plain wrong. Innocent people ONCE AGAIN put trust and their coins into an exchange that had no way of actually being able to pay it back. IMO, this is almost like a Ponzi on some levels.
