BTC-E LAUNCHES IN TEST MODE

A Russian exchange opens with a simple pitch: no names, no questions. It becomes a top-3 Bitcoin exchange, a $4 billion laundering machine, and the puzzle piece that cracked the Mt. Gox theft. Brief…

2/9 - BTC-e was built by Alexander Vinnik and Alexey Bilyuchenko, registered behind shell companies in London and run on servers in the US and Europe. It required no identity verification at all, by design. Anonymity was not an oversight. It was the product.

3/9 - That design made it a black box. You deposited bitcoin and received BTC-e's internal credits, and every trade after that happened inside a private off-chain ledger. When funds exited, the link to where they entered was gone: a clean break in the transaction…

7/9 - The wallet clustering exposed something worse than dirty customer deposits. Some of the stolen Gox coins moved straight into BTC-e's internal storage, bypassing customer deposit addresses entirely. WizSec's chief suspect for laundering the proceeds:…

8/9 - In late July 2017 it all collapsed at once. Vinnik was arrested while vacationing in Ouranoupolis, a Greek resort town, the same week US authorities seized http://btc-e.com and unsealed a 21-count indictment:
