Title: BTC value about to skyrocket!
Post by: HappyBitCoinUser on April 11, 2013, 03:01:10 PM
So they are updating their servers to fix lag due to a lot of new members?

If they really fix this lag with the update they are currently doing, and consistently have no more (major) lag issues, then confidence will rise, and so will the price of BTC. After all there is a flood of fresh money coming in.

Yes. The huge torrent of new money blocked up MtGox. When that blockage clears.......

No one in their right mind will use Mt Gox after today so their lag issues should clear right up.  :P

And you know they will take credit for the reduced lag by saying they updated their system.

I'm sure if it was that rosy they would have made that claim.  Instead, this is their statement...

Quote from: MtGox's Member Dashboard
Trading is halted until 2013-04-12 02:00am UTC to allow the market to cooldown following the drop in price. Read more details on the support. Additionally trading fees will not be charged within 48 hours of trading resuming (until 2013-04-14 02:00am UTC).

It's heading to $20-50/coin so be ready.

They are upgrading their server as they announced earlier.

Quite the convenient timing, eh?

Actually the upgrade was supposed to occur on the 17th. Me thinks someone is losing value and is masking inner cries with denial posts? :D

Upgrading a server wont fix Mt. Gox.  They should be re architecting  their entire solution.  So long Mt Gox and thanks for all the fish.

calm down guys, I have it on good authority that MtGox has secured a number of the new pentium 3 servers, as soon as they get them hooked to the modems all will be well

I might sell if it dropped to $5 and take a very tidy profit.

I'm sure you will. Everyone's a Gordon Gekko on here, I would assume you are, too.

WTF happened to using cloud on demand servers and scaling as you go.. EC2??? I cant believe a company with this much revenue can afford themselves 12 hour downtime. Japan needs some engineers from california. NOW.

Yeah right. Everything has it's swings. BTC has been down before, we still have not hit the same collapse ratio as 2011 and even if we do, this time it'll recover faster. Still not overnight, but probably not years either.

This small but rapidly growing zodiac inflatable boat has yet to merge and become part of the cruise ship, my friend.

+1

A drop like this is going to be a short blip on the map long term. Unless I missed some important news, this technology is solid, the concept is solid - this or something similar is like being one of the first to use TCP/IP and now look at the internet. (And Bitcoin has a ways to go before it gets replaced by something similar. Even ripple seems like a compliment not competitor to bitcoin)
