see this post that explains the role of Alexander Vinnik and btc-e to some extend
http://blog.wizsec.jp/2017/07/breaking-open-mtgox-1.html?m=1- After the coins (...stolen from Mt Gox) entered Vinnik's wallets, most were moved to BTC-e and presumably sold off or laundered (BTC-e money codes were a popular choice). In total some 300,000 BTC ended up on BTC-e, while other coins were deposited to other exchanges, including MtGox itself.
- Some of the funds moved to BTC-e seem to have moved straight to internal storage rather than customer deposit addresses, hinting at a relationship between Vinnik and BTC-e.
The stolen MtGox coins were not the only stolen coins handled by Vinnik; coins stolen from Bitcoinica, Bitfloor and several other thefts from back in 2011 and 2012 were all laundered through the same wallets.
so there are still chances that btc-e comes back if they comply. Hopefully with more respect for users like steven and me.
