The long running crypto exchange BTC-e has been offline for awhile now. The owner is facing numerous charges, as one would imagine. I personally hope the best for him!


If you access https://btc-e.com/ you will be presented with this screen.

I can't read russian but it doesn't look good..


Just a quick google search turned up this!

So we see that they are faced with a $110 Million fine, and the owner is looking at prison time for a being a "mastermind" in a bitcoinlaundering scheme


I feel bad for the owner, and those who have coin stuck on the exchange. They are an exchange that has been here since basically the beginning. BTC seemed to trade slightly cheaper over there. BTC-e troll box was great.
