Title: How long does it take for Mt.Gox btc withdrawal to show up in blockchain ?

Looks like mtgox is just sitting on my withdrawal request. Not a peep on blockchain, and I requested the withdrawal close to an hour back. I thought the usd withdrawal is delayed, but looks like gox does not like any kind of withdrawal. Typical!

Same here. I did something crazy last night and sent even more money to Mt Gox. I'm in Japan and using the Japanese banking system which is usually very fast, which makes Mt Gox the best way for me to get money into the system.

They just now credited my account with the money I deposited, as normal. However a few hours before that I tried to withdraw btc and that hasn't moved at all yet!

I'm sure a lot of people are trying to pull their btc out of mt. gox right now, and I can see how that part of the server could be quite busy (especially if they have their btc balance spread out over many wallets).

Gox not doing transfers to either fiat or BTC can interpeted in a number of ways:

-They are working hard and are expecting to recover fast, and carry on as nothing happend in a few days.

-They are under investigation as a financial operator by the Tax or shield and helmet authorities.

-They are trying to run with both BTC and $$.

-They were so heavily damaged under the attack that processing any transfers with a compromised system is a bad move.

Prolly because they have to send from cold wallets.
