Title: Mt. Gox status Post by: orymh on April 11, 2013, 04:20:32 PM I'm not affiliated with Mt. Gox, but I wanted to help spread the news in case some of you aren't checking their site regularly. Their original statement about temporarily shutting down their exchange was:
"Trading is halted until 2013-04-12 02:00am UTC to allow the market to cooldown following the drop in price." They've added a note that they'll not charge trading fees initially when they reopen: "Additionally trading fees will not be charged within 48 hours of trading resuming (until 2013-04-14 02:00am UTC)." Their support page is the place to watch for updated news: https://support.mtgox.com/home Title: Re: Mt.

Someone on this forum mentioned it from a Facebook post on the Mt.Gox page. Title: Re: Mt.

Their main message mentions the MARKET needing to cool down, not a server upgrade. Its a currency manipulation most likely.
