I belive if they make it right Bter will survive... There was atacks on Poloniex and other exchanges but they survived them...
Few hundreds BTC stolen or around 3,500 BTC stolen is quite a big difference.
hope BTER just defaults on the NXT and pays out all amount owing before closing.
Why are people still keeping coins on the exchanges? Its like no one ever learns from the past? A broken record keeps skipping and playing the same verse over and over again. Obviously we couldn't remove our Crypti so not pointing fingers at any of us, but the NXTers should know Bter. I'm a big NXT fan and now wasn't the time to be selling anyway, do feel bad for their losses but hopefully they won't leave crypto on an exchange. Everyone has to realize that 24/7 someone is trying to steal coins off the exchange you have your coins at right now. Its a guarantee.
Problem is Bter, they were too greedy and instead of keeping majority of NXT in offline (cold) wallet they opted for online wallet so they can make dimes by forging NXT blocks.
Make few USD per day for a while and then lose everything, very smart move, not!
