What about ordinary people who had money/bitcoins/other cryptocurrency on btc-e? What will happen with money in btc-e's wallets?

  It sounds like the US just got control of the domain, not the server(s). Some reports that their other domain may still be up (btc-e.nz), but it just hangs for me.

    Of course they have no way to get btc-e's bitcoins, unless Vinnik tells them the private key, which I bet he will. So it's basically US stealing from people, yet again.

    Would their IP still work then?

      They used to be hosted at cloudflare. So, you could put "104.23.131.83 btc-e.com" in your /etc/hosts file and try it. I did that, but cloudflare times out.
