Ice-Dice.com is awesome!

maybe someone got desperate after the 10 dollar dip? i don't know. i can only speculate.

I find it weird that the blog entry is missing comment section below the post.

different facebook "share" button.
no date.
the images are not hosted on their site.

I did not find this blog entry(still looking for it) after checking some of their older "deals blog" posts.


Also, I can still remember the fake blog @ CNN Politics Blog about an order by a judge to seize the assets of   BTC-e.

i've read their TOS today and found nothing about country restrictions.



Wouldn't it be legal to buy bitcoins using Paypal and Dwolla given that they already have govt. licenses?

I forgot that the state labeled their business as a "seller or issuer stored value" which is dead wrong .

Is your service available to international users? can i create an account even though my location is not listed?

can i sell some btc to a verified paypal account or VirWox?

Paypal and Dwolla. 

Would it be possible to open your business back by denying US transactions temporarily?

i think you need to have your email address confirmed first. Btce should send an email to your registered address.

it seems that those who haven't enabled the withdrawal email confirmation are the ones being targeted.
so far i haven't yet read about users, with the security feature enabled, claiming that there was an attempt by someone to withdraw money from their account. I really wonder why i haven't heard any. it's possible that they'll check the security setting first before attempting to withraw.

most of the accounts hacked were new.

no password was strong enough. inside job perhaps? or some unfixed vulnerability.

java was not installed in some of the affected users' computers.

it's not just windows machines that were affected.

withdrawals were initiated from different IP's around the world. TOR? web proxies? VPN?

one way of making you a potential target is by using the chatbox. have you posted messages on the chatbox ? 

what OS are you using?

do you have java installed?

are you using the same username/email/password over and over again?

 

did you enable the "withdraw only with request on email" for your account?
