Here's the thing, we as crypto enthusiasts are already worried about forks, double spend attacks, time warp exploits, etc. So to completely screw the pooch like this with these kinds of peoples money is game over.

How have they "screwed the pooch" ?

All they've done is take a few days longer to get the site up than they announced. People are over-dramatising this. I'd understand if they thought it beleid some more fundamental malaise - like over leverage of funds a. la, Gox or something - but it's a plain and simple technology delay. I wouldn't even call it a cock up, just a delay. It's clearly a complex task. You can never simulate a public network application adequately to anticipate all of the little issues you'll have on launch - just have to take the hits when they come.

The main thing is that:

a) - funds are not in jeopardy
b) - there are no critical bugs in the trading engine (a la Cryptsy negative balances and hair-stand-on-end stuff like that)
c) - that funds are not tied up for an excessive amount of time without adequate redress
d) - that there is no underlying corrupt activity

None of the above appear to be the case here so I say we give them the benefit of the doubt for now and constructively support their efforts to get things stable rather than mindlessly putting the boot into them.

tok the main issue is they didn't know to test a full migration before they did it, that's what caused the 5 day delay. in the industry this is basic knowledge, the fact they didn't do that suggests they are inexperienced, so there will probably be a lot of other basic issues. just saying
