This forum is filled with truly naive people.

As digital currencies are not officially regulated by any government body, there is no legal standing that anybody on this site has.
If anything, the only person who could 'go to police' about this all is Erundook himself on the basis he feels his life is in danger because he has been getting death threats on here.

You may hide behind a username, but the reality is this; if a person feels they are in genuine danger from someone on the internet then the police can request details of the offenders from the owner of the site. If they fail to comply then a seizure notice can be served upon the site. VPN or no VPN, a host is still very easily traceable. Once the police have these details, if they wish to they can liase with Interpol and Europol and request an international arrest warrant leading to extradition and eventually a court appearance to explain yourself.

Just accept that we have all lost something here (some far more than others) and that we all need to move on. There is nothing anybody can do for you now.
What a downer. Guess we should all slit our wrists and fall off the side of the blood stained cliff into the pit of eternal woe and abandonment. Last time I checked, the IRS said it's going to be taxing Bitcoin. If it's taxable, it's government regulated. Pretty sure you contradicted yourself by saying it's quite easy to trace someone then say to just give up. Le troll logic. There are several other reasons to entangle someone in a court case (some far dumber than others) besides the traditional 'I've lost money/property and I want it back in the form of your first born child,' such as emotional distress (seeing a lot of that here).

Maybe the amount you had with CoinEX was no big deal, but for some people that just isn't an option. I'm simply giving them more options than to complain or activate goth mode. I had a couple grand in alts and a few hundred in shares, but I'm not losing any sleep over it. What would make me lose sleep though is not doing anything to ensure the situation doesn't repeat itself, at least not with the same ring leader.
