I got caught up in this whole mess (sadly). I had USD (that wasn't loaned out at the time). By bypassing both Bitfinex and BitGo security measures this looks like an inside job to me.

Social losses of what has been going around will be BTC and USD ( margin lenders) that will be taking the hit, inactive USD and other alts will not be affected. Bitfinex seems like they don't care as they have a shady coorperate setup that basically doesn't make it easy for anyone to sue them, while the people that lost money want social losses to be spread amongst all the customers (similar to a bankruptcy and asset liquidation).
