Title: Leaked Mt.Gox "feature" to lock all BTC for 6 month Post by: btc_hft on February 23, 2014, 07:20:16 PM Hi,
does anyone know what "locked till..." means? https://i.imgur.com/IeNrvsL.png That doesn't sound so good... I logged out, logged in and thank god it was gone! Now I see my normal balance. Update: Might be a feature under development that someone accidentally released early. btc_hft Title: Re: What does "locked till..." mean with Mt.Gox?

Title: Re: What does "locked till..." mean with Mt.Gox? Post by: Hans0 on February 23, 2014, 08:17:46 PM I'd say they accidentally deployed a new website feature which is to lock all bitcoins for 6 month. They'll probably announce it soon enough. According to the date from the screenshot, they'll lock them in tomorrow.
Looks like they've finally decided not to pay. Reminds me of the Greece/Cyprus haircuts. "Just give us a little more time and extend our credit lines. We promise we'll pay!". And it's gone!

This pic looks photoshopped. Title: Re: Leaked Mt.Gox "feature" to lock all BTC for 6 month Post by: btc_hft on February 23, 2014, 08:30:54 PM I blacked out identifying information and added marker with the "Windows Snipping Tool". Of course it looks photoshopped.

Title: Re: Leaked Mt.Gox "feature" to lock all BTC for 6 month Post by: T.Stuart on February 23, 2014, 08:41:09 PM Why is it showing 2 BTC wallets? Is that a feature on Gox accounts?
The price shows you took the pic at least 12 hours before posting. But you make it sound like it just happened. Why did you wait? to ponder whether or not to release this? I'm naturally dubious given the circumstances and the fact that several other posts with unsubstantiated claims have been springing up this evening [and you've been hard at work all day photoshopping, etc.] :) Title: Re: Leaked Mt.Gox "feature" to lock all BTC for 6 month Post by: btc_hft on February 23, 2014, 08:44:11 PM The price shows you took the pic at least 12 hours before posting. But you make it sound like it just happened. Why did you wait? to ponder whether or not to release this? I didn't wait. The price is about 2 hours old. Maybe you're confused by the fact that is is denominated in €, not $.

Sorry but still dubious.

Hi, does anyone know what "locked till..." means? https://i.imgur.com/IeNrvsL.png That doesn't sound so good... I logged out, logged in and thank god it was gone! Now I see my normal balance.

If you pay us we will try to believe you. :D Title: Re: Leaked Mt.Gox "feature" to lock all BTC for 6 month Post by: DanielVG on February 23, 2014, 09:14:45 PM I blacked out identifying information and added marker with the "Windows Snipping Tool".

Of course it looks photoshopped. That's MSPainted, not photoshopped. Maybe it was GIMPed or some propriety app on an iPad. Who knows or cares. What matters is that it is a fake.

Title: Re: Leaked Mt.Gox "feature" to lock all BTC for 6 month Post by: libitum on February 23, 2014, 11:05:20 PM I dont know if the poster of that pic is trustable or not.
If the pic would be true and MtGox does lock bitcoin withdrawals for months, but allows only fiat withdrawals during that time, probably bitcoin price in MtGox will plummet. $10 per BTC? Locking BTC for months in a company that will go bankrupt in weeks is a a recipe for panic selling.

OMG ITS ON BITSTAMP TOO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Obviously I'm trolling... Title: Re: Leaked Mt.Gox "feature" to lock all BTC for 6 month Post by: rikkejohn on February 23, 2014, 11:29:43 PM I also doubt the website would use slang like 'till' instead of until true. in which case it should be "til" and not "till" anyway. It's "till", not "til", very confusing I know. Just one of those quirky things with the English language. You can use "til", but it is a newer form of the expression. In fact, "until" comes from the word "till". I'll shut up now. :-) Title: Re: Leaked Mt.Gox "feature" to lock all BTC for 6 month Post by: btc_hft on February 25, 2014, 11:07:14 AM I guess it wasn't so fake after all. ;D
