Don't mind the "single digits" part - I just wanted to create a title as ridiculous as the one that said "ATH coming soon". Anyway, here is the news.

FUD FUD FUD. Utter ridiculousness

FTFY  ;D

It looks like a nice place.

Edit: They also provide virtual offices  :D :D :D

This building has security guards and a Starbucks nearby.  8)

No bag holders can bother Mr. Frappuccino.

sowhat should this mean? Anyone really using gox now ?

Yeah, people are still using gox for long-term storage.

are they nuts ?

I believe he meant FORCED long-term storage.  lol

I was gonna write when I searched it turned up to be a hotel location.. lol looks like Mark wants to just stay in his room and get room service while Gox goes by the wayside. Is this dude still on the Bitcoin Foundation board?...

At least Mt. Gox had the decency to post their new address.

ATH soon is not ridiculous, it is only a matter of time.

Kind corporation?  People are trusting their money with these dolts?

I see 'tower' in the building name.  It's not uncommon for skyscrapers to be mixed use, with a mixture of offices and residential appartments, maybe a few floors occupied by a presigious hotel chain, and maybe thrown in a restaurant or two.  This is common in major cities worldwide.  So having an office in the same building as a hotel is not particularly unusual (if this is indeed the case).  Still, it's an interesting development, and one has to wonder the reason behind the move.

Would be very interesting to know whether the new premises are larger/more expensive or smaller/cheaper than the previous ones...

That was sarcasm

Looks like they've been using that address for a while (since May 2012 at least)

This address change is kind of frightening, actually. That floor is devoted to virtual offices.

the way things are going, it will end up being a mailboxes etc address.

Or it could be a serviced office. Either way, it's a downsize back to where they started.

If I also lived/worked in that tower I'd be worried about terrorists.

When they have a virtual office as correspondence address, their real office can move to anywhere without notifying customers. So no one can protest at their front door.

Exactly. Which makes one ask whether they are expecting more protests in the near future......

Seems too coincidental that they are moving addresses right as this withdrawal issue is going on. Not to mention the recent "VISITORS" they've had while drinking their lattes.

I'll be shocked if they aren't insolvent or at least missing a huge number of coins. The move to a virtual address paired with the refusal to discuss solvency along with the mention of an investigation points in one direction.

Or asks "Will there be withdrawals in any meaningful amount?"

Today's announcement will read:

"Please wait longer as we test our new withdrawal system. Update to come on Monday about the next update date."

New address is a virtual office: http://www.executivecentre.com/location/shibuya_cerulean_tower

So basically a P.O. Box; I wonder if there is anyone still working in the old office.  Have any of the protesters actually been up to the Mt Gox office as opposed to just standing outside?  Probably a big empty room with a couple of shredders in the middle at this point.

I think you said it quite accurately, single digits coming to Gox soon. That just means Biafore will make THAT MUCH MORE OF A KILLING!

I wonder how late they wait to say something today, they said,


which doesn't sound like they are going to be ready to show anything and will probably take up as much time as they can again

They've been planning to move to new offices since a while

:D :D :D

This is just their previous address - I sent a Yubikey back to them in January 2012 to this address

Wait this is news to me when did mtgox move locations?

Yea its true. Its here according to google maps

Tera your single digits comment not far from the mark.

lmao  :D

while in the mean time, they try to contact SatoshiNakamoto to bail them out ;)

They probably did that in a nooby attempt to keep away protesters.

Everything they (mtgox) do is so very amateurish. And why is Mark drinking so much coffee? He can't seem to keep awake during the day. What the fook is he doing at night?

Tera's got it absolutely correct, albeit inadvertently: single digit at mtgox soon.

Hi James,

Mark is doing exactly what an instant millionaire would do at night: hookers, party, clubs, landing home with a helicopter, drugs. I mean, wouldn't you do it too if you'd had all those coins AND fiat sitting there on a website you pulled out your ass?

Smart people left MtGox a year ago.

It's nice to see all those class action suits and protests. But listen to this: by the time people will get their USD back, all will be worthless :(

And while I don't give a shit on people's USD, I do care about their bitcoins.

It is news that they did it because of

if the security issue is that there are protesters picketing outside your office

then that is a worse lame excuse one ever imagine: Blame the extra delays on protesters? Is this the worst ever holywood scenario?
