[tinus42]

I am outta here guys. It was fun.... I am selling several shares....

it is gonna go less than 0.7

Lophie, so soon a change of heart?  

It's been a mad rollercoaster ride these last few days.

I dumped all my AM100s (56) at 0.012 which I had bought at 0.018. Thought I could buy them back cheaper but that hasn't happened.

Wow. I wish we had more concrete information about what's causing this (i.e., more specific than "the US government is cracking down on Bitcoin securities"). Was Ukyo contacted by someone from the SEC or something?

I have no reason to believe that the US IS cracking down on BTC securities.  There have been no public statements by the US govt, and I have seen no evidence from the exchanges themselves.

I find it unethical that these exchanges are charging fees to their US customers, but won't let them hold positions.

[weaknesswaran]

And no chance to export into direct shares on bitfunder

Exactly, that's why I want to know what IS causing this.

Fawk... waiting to buy more and BAM... this will make it so I could get the price I want but won't be able to.

Not a US citizen, but I am sure Ukyo/Bitfunder will or should facilitate a transfer to direct shares or either a transfer to Havelock.
Ukyo thread is located here: https://asktom.cf/index.php?topic=130117.0 (that thread is on fire now!)
Anyway, that should have been clarified before posting that unfortunate notice.

Well for now havelocks reply is that the legal team was not able to assist them with enhanced details so the status remains the same
That said of the three exchanges havelock has been the most proactive with their team in my opinion
Expect the minimum being registration/verificiation though if it is anything like Canadianbitcoins
Government issued photo ID (Drivers License or Passport)
Recent utility bill, cell phone bill, bank statement, credit card statement, or other nationally recognized company statement (within the last 3 months) that contains your name and address

TAT - any chance the uncompleted transfers to BitFunder can be moved to Havelock?  I'm sure it's a pain, but I'd rather not have to get involved with this mess...

So, to be clear, US entities need not supply "Verified" status on WeExchange?

Users will be able to withdraw holdings and Bitcoins from their BitFunder accounts before and after November 1, 2013.

So users will be able to withdraw Bitcoins via a manner other than WeExchange?

There are a few logical inconsistencies in this announcement, or perhaps I am reading it incorrectly.

Why these platforms closed? Can anyone post the back reason?

[Rannasha]

Why these platforms closed? Can anyone post the back reason?

The US government is 'protecting' its citizens against the evils of bitcoin stocks.

Well, they are protecting some citizens all right.

[btcbot]

When you look at how much dough has been lost through scams (Labcoin?) and just sheer incompetence maybe this is a good thing.  Between the 'short's BS and burnside's 'closing to US citizens' -> 'no I'm not...' -> 'closing for everybody' process, this scene is just embarassing... 

[glendall]

What's needed is a p2p exchange. Some folks are working on this, hoping their hard work will come to fruition.

edit: found bitcoinx project, gives me hope ;    http://www.bitcoinx.org/

I'm not sure a hidden service wouldn't work just as well.  Somebody should just buy Burnside's code and use Tor.

Well they dropped back to 0.011 now. I think they will go lower as fear of Havelock blocking US citizens grows, then I'll buy back in again.

[binaryFate]

Div prediction?
I'd say 0.007~8.
