I'm still waiting for walletbit to transfer my bitcoins to a new address.  It's very nerve wracking not knowing what is going on with them.

I have yet to hear back.  This is becoming worse and worse.

Oh boy, that is one hell of a bait comment.  Smiley

No ticket, yet.  All instructions from WalletBit/Kris have been to e-mail info@walletbit.com, but I am following your updates to see if I should also do that.

I understand their situation with BIPS.  What concerns me is that other users/people should not pay for those mistakes. 

Two things:

1) The WalletBit issue is not related.  < The important part.

2) The money/WalletBit database was taken offline (when it closed), as per Kris/WalletBit/etc - safe and sound.  <  The important detail in the important part.

I appreciate that Kris and company's attention is on the BIPS situation, but I will not tolerate them screwing WalletBit's users in order to fix BIPS screw up.  A person's money is their money, that is the irrevocable fact built into Bitcoin.

If there was not many users on WalletBit (as per Kris in this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=249751), then it should not take so long for those involved/Kris/BIPS to process the few WalletBit e-mails they have.

According to that thread, and this one, it seems to only take minutes to fix the problem.  From their perspective, they would have it over and done with; one less scandal to deal with.

How many Bitcoins did you lose access to? (if you're comfortable answering of course).

As a precaution, no specific amount, but it greater than 3 digits worth in dollars

Still no reply via e-mail.

My Bips support desk ticket was updated/acknowledged this morning Smiley

Thanks, Grimbarian

No response from info@walletbit.com, yet, but I hope your side has better luck.

I appreciate the updates.

I also haven't received a response to my email but not a big surprise with what has happened in the Bitcoin world the last few days, I also signed up to Bips support system and opened a ticket there.

Thanks, Grimbarian, please keep me posted.  I did not have a small amount at WalletBit.

Considering they took a fee on my deposit, in exchange for the wallet service; this was not free and, at the least, they owe the ability to withdraw funds.

In regards to what HAS happened in the Bitcoin world (i.e. the value of each BTC): Similar situations dealing with such large sums being stolen would lead to publicly listed addresses of those responsible and/or bad things happening.

I hope they handle this properly.

Hi,

I just found out that WalletBit closed, too.  No notification at all was sent to me.  Not even an e-mail; nothing in junk/spam folder.

After finding out about it this weekend, I sent an email, but I have not received any response (at least to confirm receipt/looking into the matter).

Can anyone offer any assistance?

Thanks
