Title: MtGox withdrawal error: "Invalid bitcoin address, please confirm your input"
Post by: BTCtrader71 on February 05, 2014, 06:37:11 PM
Anyone else getting this error? I got it just now on two addresses, one of which I used successfully in January to withdraw btc from MtGox.

Yes I have had the same thing today.  Also on used addresses.

Isn't it amazing how all "technical" problems with Gox happen to involve getting some of your money out. Quite the statistical anomaly.

Update: The charts below have temporarily gone flat. That's not a bug -- I'm still getting fresh data. The Mt.Gox IRC support channel tells me this flatness is a result of their hot wallet currently being empty. Most users who try to withdraw now get an "invalid address" error, meaning the withdrawal attempt fails before a transaction is created that can get stuck.

Fraction reserve with Bitcoins? Any way MtGox can prove they have all Bitcoins ? :)

Many have asked for this info and MTGOX has not provided it. Of course they wouldn't.
