If the domain or server were seized, we would not see trading still happening. Calm yourselves, people ;D Title: Re: Mt Gox Down .... this is bad !!! Post by: RodeoX on May 15, 2013, 07:18:20 PM looks like it is everywhere.
www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com and it's not that bad. Title: Not down just slow. Post by: sgravina on May 15, 2013, 07:28:48 PM With perseverance I was able to withdraw my bitcoins, 28 of them. It took me 16 minutes of waiting a long time after each entry into the web page.
I can see my coins on the blockchain. Title: Re: Mt Gox Down ....

I feel better now that I've transferred my coins out. Local and cold, that's the way we do it from now on. Title: Re: Mt Gox Down .... DDOS posible cause Post by: morningtime on May 15, 2013, 08:00:33 PM After the Dwolla account was shut down, US customers are likely clearing out their Bitcoins ASAP.
This will cause a massive crash of the Bitcoin price. Title: Re: Mt Gox Down .... DDOS posible cause Post by: morningtime on May 15, 2013, 08:01:36 PM I feel better now that I've transferred my coins out. If everybody is doing this now, no wonder the site is down...! Is this the end of Mt.Gox? Title: Re: Mt Gox Down .... DDOS posible cause Post by: nikkisnowe on May 15, 2013, 08:05:05 PM Why does everyone seem to believe that when mtgox goes down that its a ddos attack? This was just a convenient excuse by mtgox to cover their incompetence. " oh no! Those scary hackers are at it again!". Maybe, just maybe, its down because the crappy infrastructure at mtgox can't handle their own traffic.

What crash if most US people have to buy bitcoins to transfer them to other exchanges. Price at mtgox would rather rise fast.This will cause a massive crash of the Bitcoin price.

Title: Re: Mt Gox Down .... DDOS posible cause Post by: axus on May 16, 2013, 06:42:35 PM Doesn't this prop the price up? People are selling their dollars, then transferring their bitcoins. What good is a dollar... if you are unable to withdraw it?
