A little slower than usual. I still have not gotten my ACH withdrawal as of yet. Starting to get the jitters again. I withdrew HALF of my USD via ACH this past Sunday. it is now Wednesday and still nothing.

I will contact support today.

Roman replied to my support email. I should give it another day or so.

Any plan to re-pay the lost bitcoin? I see this as being an important way to regain the trust of the community. There are other exchanges that have not been compromised that work well, what incentive do I have with going with an exchange that lost so much BTC and has made 0 claims of repayment. I just don't see it being wise for the community to help bitfloor out until repayment is discussed. If there is no plan to repay lost BTC then the community should not back the rebuilding of bitfloor.

Got around $900 USD back through ACH.  I am leaving some USD in the exchange and hoping Roman good luck in getting bitfloor back operational.

You need to read between the lines in his post.  That's exactly what he's working on figuring out when he says "finding a way to proceed".

I would prefer he actually say it than just assume it. I'm not asking for a specific on how or when just a simple "and repay stolen BTC" would be enough.

I was getting that error as well. Using a different connection, it worked fine.

I am migrating the bitfloor servers. As the migration to new servers takes effect you will see the website again. This should take no more than 24 hours before you can access the site again.

It is entirely possible bitfloor will go bankrupt.  It needs new investors (and new capital) to restart.  Those investors may (almost certainly will) have requirements and conditions.  Making promises (even open ended and vague) is counter productive. 


It is never that simple.  bitfloor, Inc doesn't have the funds to make right.  Period.  To make it right requires attracting new capital. Making promises before you have the ability to execute them is just false hope.  I am fairly confident that bitfloor will attract the capital it needs.  I have even indicated I am willing to provide some of that capital however "fixing" a loss like this is tricky.  The deal has to make sense for current creditors, it has to make sense for Roman, it has to make sense from a business perspective (being competitive, properly capitalized), and it has to make sense for investors.

Roman is doing the right thing IMHO.  That doesn't mean creditors will get paid, it must means blabbing on the forum makes it LESS LIKELY creditors will get paid.

Let me know when you find an insurance company willing to replace lost/stolen BTC.  Bankruptcy is always an option.

While a judge "may" rule against USD account holders that doesn't prevent bitfloor from entering bankruptcy or being liquidated.  I would also point out no court has (at least to date) recognized BTC owed as a legal claim.  So it is a huge longshot for BTC creditors to seek compensation in bankruptcy.  They would need a judge to both find their claim valid AND clawback USD balances paid out.  Baring that you can't get blood from a stone, my understanding is Bitfloor has no significant assets.

IMHO (and I don't speak for Roman or bitfloor) the only plausible scenario where bitfloor returns to operation and creditors receive compensation is a capital injection.  At this point without knowing what requirements new investors may have Roman can only hurt the chances of that happening by blabbing on some forum.
