Bitcoin Exchange Bitstamp Confirms Loss of ~18,886 BTC (~$5 million USD) from Hot Wallet https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/bitcoin-exchange-bitstamp-confirms-loss-of-18886-btc-5-million-usd-from-hot-wallet/ … #Bitcoin
Highlight....
Bitstamp CEO Nejc Kodrič has confirmed in a statement that “less than 19,000 BTC” was stolen due to a Bitstamp operational wallet being compromised. CCN has previously reported on this Bitcoin wallet, which seems to hold 18,866 BTC that was clearly siphoned away from Bitstamp hot wallets during the alleged timeframe of the Bitstamp hack. Notably, Kodrič does not use the word “hack” in any of his statements to reassure users that their personal information is safe.
It could also lend credence to Jackson Palmer’s theory that a weak RNG attack is responsible for the lost funds; though, server backup migration has also lead Palmer to speculate that the Bitstamp hack could have been a server compromise. 18,866 bitcoins is currently valued at around $5 million USD. ~18,866 BTC represents at least 12% of Bitstamp’s total BTC stash. Bitstamp is currently offline.

Goldman's Payroll Preview: Labor Market Softened In December, Expect Slower Earnings Growth
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 01/08/2015 - 22:00
Goldman Sachs expects nonfarm payroll job growth of 230k in December, slightly below the consensus forecast of 240k. Labor market indicators continue to point to a strong pace of employment gains, but softened on balance in December. In particular, jobless claims rose modestly and the employment components of service sector business surveys weakened somewhat. With respect to wages, we expect a softer +0.1% gain in average hourly earnings following an unusually large gain in November. On balance, labor market indicators looked somewhat softer in December, but remain consistent with a solid trend rate of employment growth.
"Europe Can't Afford A Greek Exit" German Opposition Warns Merkel Is "Playing With Fire"
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 01/08/2015 - 21:30
The mainstream media narrative - that Germany is ready and prepared for Grexit and that it is no longer a threat to financial stability -is all hype, according to German opposition finance minister Joachim Poss. As Bloomberg reports, all that is mostly posturing for an electorate tired of the aid and angst Greece has demanded since 2010. Simply put, the potential for Euro instability from a Grexit is a detriment to Germany's massive benefits from the single currency - "Europe can’t afford a Greek exit," Poss concludes, complacency by Merkel is "playing with fire."
How Bad Is It For Shale Companies: The Cost Of Resolute Energy's New Second-Lien Debt: 25%!
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 01/08/2015 - 17:10
Over the weekend, we saw the first casualty of low oil prices as WBH Energy went into bankruptcy. Today, Bloomberg reports,Resolute Energy Corp. has been forced by low oil prices to borrow at distressed levels. The Denver-based company, which we previously highlighted as having a 4.5x Debt/EBITDA (there are a lot higher), managed to procure a new $150 million 2nd term loan from Highbridge Capital (mostly used to roll old debt). The cost of funding: 11% coupon plus 5% upfront (and a guaranteed 25% return for the lender if Resolute pays it back early). At that cost of funding, it is no wonder that Resolute's bonds remain, to borrow a Charlie Evans phrase, catastrophically priced.
Editors' pick: What oil traders have to say about crude oil price's freefall http://goo.gl/CEbk7Q

NEW YORK/LONDON, Jan 7 (Reuters) - Oil traders can agree on only one thing about when the second-biggest price rout on record will be over: not yet.
Crude oil's freefall from more than $100 a barrel last summer to a near six-year low under $50 a barrel has been unrelenting, shocking traders and baffling analysts who have all but given up trying to pinpoint the bottom of the market.
