Title: 2014-03-21 BBC MtGox finds 200,000 missing bitcoins in old wallet Post by: Swordsoffreedom on March 21, 2014, 07:19:26 AM http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-26677291
Bankrupt Japanese firm MtGox said in a filing that it has found 200,000 lost bitcoins. The firm said it found the bitcoins - worth around $116m (£70m) - in an old digital wallet from 2011. That brings the total number of bitcoins the firm lost down to 650,000 from 850,000. Cont.

Realized he couldn't get away with those ones.
Also lets remember that he said hackers stole all these coins, then 200,000 show up magically. I think "hackers" today means "we have no idea what happened".
