Quit trying to create panic.
Panic creates unneeded backlash.
Backlash increases the odds that someone may throw in the towel regardless of whether or not they can actually recover.

BTC-e has no reason to screw the public as they have the potential to make way more money long-term by staying legit. It may even be profitable enough that they could refund hacked funds (no reports of this during recent downtime), so don't worry/.

Looking forward to the resolution of this.
