Title: Re: MTGgox seems to be down??? Post by: helikatze on June 14, 2011, 01:42:23 PM Same problem here.....
Maybe it's a part of the DDOS attacks on the bitcoin network. First the pools and then the exchange places. Hope they fix it fast. Title: Re: MTGgox seems to be down???

Nobody can get a straight answer. Title: Re: MTGgox seems to be down??? Post by: EpicNoob on June 14, 2011, 01:44:09 PM n/a

Title: Re: MTGgox seems to be down??? Post by: WinterIsComing on June 14, 2011, 02:21:54 PM I have a feeling that DHS or DEA is behind the DDOS attack. I have a very sneaky suspicion that the problem is because of all the attention that online drug ring is getting in the press, or someone just wants to steal a lot of money. This is their way of staunching a wound.
