Well, with $100k+ in fiat, I missed the BTC train (and BCH), so I have less than half of what I would have had if I was in coin at the time. Taking a 50% loss now would bring that down to a quarter. Sure BTC trading is about betting, but now I'm betting those 50k that they will honor the payback rather than losing them with 100% certainty.
it all falls back on the saying "1 bird in hand is better then 2 in the bush"
Yeah, I understand that some people wants to cut their losses and get something back. But if BTC-E would plan to run with the money, they would have done so by now in my opinion. The major risk now is just the feds shutting them down again or something along those lines, I don't think they intend to rob people. So with that in mind, I'll take that bet. Also, a typo - I'm risking losing 25k of certain cash, but can potentially gain (or well, not lose) 75k more with a quite high percentage of success, so.. I'll let it ride. So I'm betting on the 4 birds in the bush instead of 1 in the hand
