Title: GOX down, server seizures going on right now? Post by: shad0wbitz on May 15, 2013, 06:38:53 PM Would this be possible? The US government certainly can appeal to the Japanese government to shut them down (Japan is VERY friendly to the US). Your thoughts/

Post by: not.you on May 15, 2013, 07:05:54 PM support.mtgox.com (http://support.mtgox.com) is working fine so I think it looks like a DDOS.
Title: Re: GOX down, server seizures going on right now? Post by: mgio on May 15, 2013, 07:06:52 PM maybe not even a DDOS, it's not that bad, just a little slow right now.
Title: Re: GOX down, server seizures going on right now? Post by: Brushan on May 15, 2013, 07:09:11 PM Well, if the US is really after MtGox, Japan isn't the best country to be seated in. It's almost like they are one of the states of America.

It's almost like they are one of the states of America. Correct, and the 502 might be coming from their DDOS protection service, along with a cache of their login page. Doesn't really say anything. Their support page is hosted elsewhere so it doesn't say anything either. No communications from GOX, so what is going on? COULD be a DDOS, could be that the US paid a phone call to the jap authorities, and the japs will bend over of course. They need to sell a lot of shit to US customers. They don't want to piss off daddy. Title: Re: GOX down, server seizures going on right now? Post by: Hawker on May 15, 2013, 07:17:05 PM Gox is up now. Less panic please.

Post by: old_engineer on May 15, 2013, 07:28:20 PM Opportunist DDOS. +1So far as feds are concerned, the US bank account seizure has nothing to do with mtgox.com or bitcoins. From their point of view, money was sent from Dwolla account A to Mark Karpales' Wells Fargo account; then from Mark's Wells Fargo account to Dwolla account B. Case closed: it's a money transmitting business, entire enclosed within US borders. Why he didn't sign up for a license is beyond me. Title: Re: GOX down, server seizures going on right now?

This is not he case at all. It will be interesting to see how much or little they cooperate. Title: Re: GOX down, server seizures going on right now?
