More detailed information about what happened to the BTC-e service.

On July 25, 11:00 the FBI staff came to the data center where our server equipment was located and seized all equipment, the servers contained databases and purses of our service.

FBI seized wallets? Does that mean that FBI confiscated private keys too or what BTC-e wanted to say?Huh?

I just hope that BTC-e was not that stupid to leave private keys on trading servers, at least not for their cold wallets, or otherwise !!!!!!!!!!!

If purses were seized, okay, but shouldn't the keys have been encrypted? And this should only be for the hot wallets, right?

The fact that they put it like this does not bode well.......
