The Bitcoin community is in a deep crisis – there are basically two sides with fundamentally opposing views on how to move forward. The whole discussion has become toxic with personal attacks, conspiracy theories, computer hacking and even death threats against Bitcoin developers. Altcoins are suffering as well. Some very annoying proponents of “Ethereum” have started spamming inboxes of reddit users.

Both Keiser and Dixon have been involved in Bitcoin for a long-time, but they are both slow on catching up with the community on recent events. If you have ever watched Keiser’s TV show you already know what kind of person he is: fearmongering about “the collapse of the U.S. dollar”, talking to struggling entrepreneurs and conspiracy theorists.

This might be the worst investment vehicle in the history of Bitcoin.

Cryptsy Threatens Bankruptcy, Claims Millions Lost in Bitcoin Heist
Bitcoin Insider
2016. Jan. 16. 02:07
Embattled digital currency exchange Cryptsy is now claiming that it is insolvent.
The exchange alleges in a newly released blog post that it was the target of a hack in July 2014, an incident that it said cost it approximately 13,000 BTC ($7.5m at the time) and approximately 300,000 LTC (then $2.08m).
Unless the funds are recovered or a buyer is able to cover the losses, the post continued, the site will be shut down and bankruptcy declared.
The acknowledgement of insolvency and the hack claims come after months of customer withdrawal delays, comparisons to the now-defunct Japanese bitcoin exchange Mt Gox, and the filing of a class action lawsuit against the exchange.
Cryptsy said that it has outstanding liabilities of approximately 10,000 BTC, or roughly $4.15m at press time. The site, which previously said that it would suspend trading and withdrawals indefinitely, has been taken offline as of press time.Source: CoinDesk

Mike Hearn, a British computer programmer, holed up in his two-bedroom apartment in Zurich over several days and nights last week, writing a cri de coeur.
Two years ago, Mr. Hearn quit a cushy programming job at Google’s Swiss headquarters to devote himself full time to what was his great passion: the virtual currency Bitcoin. He was one of a handful of developers around the world dedicated to maintaining the basic software that governs both the creation of new Bitcoins and the network on which the financial transactions take place.
But a nasty fight has torn apart the small brotherhood of Bitcoin developers and raised questions about the survival of the virtual currency. Mr. Hearn, until recently one of the most prominent leaders of the Bitcoin project, became so disillusioned that in December he sold the few hundred Bitcoins he had left and quietly took a job at a new start-up.
The impassioned blog post he was working on last week was an announcement that he was leaving Bitcoin behind entirely: “Bitcoin has gone from being a transparent and open community to one that is dominated by rampant censorship and attacks on bitcoiners by other bitcoiners.”
The dispute — which grew out of a question about the number of transactions the Bitcoin network can handle — may sound like something of interest only to the most die-hard techies. But it has exposed fundamental differences about the basic aims of the Bitcoin project, and how online communities should be governed. The two camps have broadly painted each other as, on one side, populists who are focused on expanding Bitcoin’s commercial potential and, on the other side, elitists who are more concerned with protecting its status as a radical challenger to existing currencies.Source: NY Times

Cryptsy was hacked
Bitbargain.com
2016. Jan. 15. 11:17
As it turns out, the people who were called ‘trolls’ and accused of spreading FUD (myself included) were correct in the assumption that Cryptsy may have been insolvent or suffered a hack that lead to withdrawal processing problems.
http://blog.cryptsy.com/post/137323646202/announcement
We learn from this blog entry that:
- Cryptsy were running altcoins under the same account as Bitcoin. Either that, or they had an old kernel and lack of protections in place to prevent a root exploit.
- Much like Mt.Gox, Cryptsy do not know what a safe/cold wallet means. They claim that a hot wallet compromise (which should have been confined to the type of coin, not other coins on the same server) somehow lead to the attackers being able to steal 13k BTC and 300k LTC from the cold wallets. Clearly there is a missing piece in the story.
- The hack happened over 1.5 years ago.
- Even though Cryptsy had known about the hack for long, they didn’t report it to police because they just “didn’t know what happened” (other than you know, someone stealing a lot of money from them, which is clearly too little information, so they figured continuing business as usual was the right call).
- Cryptsy continuously kept this information hidden on purpose. They accepted deposits from users and deliberately didn’t post any warnings on the front page about possible withdrawal problems.
- CoinFire is blamed for posting an article about the withdrawal problems and the suspicious communication (or lack of it). Apparently the bank run is their fault.
- They have finally realized that they can no longer keep up the charade, so now they turned to the general public to *now* ask them what to do (file bankruptcy, get someone to buy the company, or wait for the hacker to feel bad about taking all those coins and return it).
