Title: Blast from the past! Mtgox: Promises and Reality Post by: ineededausername on December 18, 2011, 10:18:04 PM Everything will still work the same as always for the time being. But expect a lot of positive changes after he takes over including: Automatic (and free) funding from Euro accounts. Automatic ACH deposit and withdrawal. Margin trading. Interface redesign. Lifting the $1000 a day withdrawal limit. I'll leave you to decide how Mtgox is doing. Title: Re: Blast from the past!

The interface has been redesigned and the $1000 limit can be lifted by verification. No margin trading. No automatic ACH but Dwolla has essentially taken charge of that. Furthermore it hasn't even been a year. I think they're doing pretty good. Title: Re: Blast from the past!

Not that I'm going to withdraw that amount any time soon. Title: Re: Blast from the past!

The limit gets raised if you ask. Title: Re: Blast from the past! Mtgox: Promises and Reality Post by: ineededausername on December 19, 2011, 02:51:35 AM it hasn't even been a year. Please explain to me how something like margin trading takes more than a year. In fact, mtgox was so slow that zhoutong went ahead and made Bitcoinica. Now mtgox wants to reverse the effects of their incompetence by blocking Bitcoinica from timely withdrawals. Title: Re: Blast from the past!

Seriously, if I work at Mt. Gox, I wouldn't be able to finish margin trading in a year. Mt. Gox has a very professional trading engine and I don't know how to add margin trading facility effectively. That's why Bitcoinica is not an exchange and will never be. I initially had the idea of Bitcoinica on September 3, shared with a few friends, and then launched on September 9. |
