This is ridiculous. The Americans have detained a Russian citizen in Greece, for running a Bitcoin operation from Bulgaria. Now they want him deported to the United States. WTF? Why the Americans can't mind their own business.
It's not about what country they were operating from. It's about which countries they accept users from and which countries' users deposit and withdraw fiat from their exchange.
If they were dealing with US dollars and US customers, I can understand why they would be subject to US KYC laws.
I suppose that according to American authorities though, the best way to find out who stole funds from Mt. Gox is to steal funds from BTC-E.
They recently tweeted that they will be down for another 5 to 10 days
Or forever.
Wrong USA has to regulate own country and own citizen ,
if usa citizen go to another country or use another country service ,the second country rules apply not US one ,
IF USA do not want their citizen to trade on BTC-e it should punish own citizen not the hole world. fuck this USA
