Creditors will have two options. They can either receive a prorated amount from the 200,000 bitcoins recovered by Mt. Gox equal to roughly 20 percent of their claim, or obtain an equity stake of that amount in the revitalized Mt. Gox exchange. The investor group pledged to set aside 50% of transaction fees to pay back creditors over time. Title: Re: and Gox... is baaack in the game Post by: SgtSpike on April 10, 2014, 10:28:45 PM So, um...

Even if gox is resurrected from bankruptcy, would users go back to trading at gox? Would worldwide banks allow faster/limitless fiat transfers in and out of gox with this new management?

I am not judging anyone ("investors") but IF those investors are working in group with Mark K.... this will be biggest scam in BTC history ever done.. But perhaps ... if they will repay the creditors I do mind - let them to that - and my suggest is - when you will get your Goxed money back - delete your MtGox account and never ever come back.

The lack of reading comprehension is one of the many reasons why so many people have been scammed and will continue to be scammed. they see a terrible "offer" to buy mt gox and run around acting like it's actually happening and suggesting something similar as a solution to other exchanges that managed to lose years worth of revenue due to incompetence/scams/whatever.

Coindesk is quickly becoming nothing more than an internet tabloid ::) There are very many stages of a deal, especially "short sales", rest assured the court is supervising the finial outcome. Personally, I think the community should get together and make a better system, there's no need to buy a purposefully broken system unless it is part of a structured settlement -- 'take it or leave it'. However, I think a criminal court should also have some involvement in the matter. I have to admit, I really didn't think gox would going to give back anything whatsoever, with btc driven to the ground apparently the bigger whales were willing to empty the whole pond jut to make sure Gox doesn't swim free. When it's all said and done, I doubt if Karp sees his 40 birthday, he's just too much in love with fraud.

The old mtgox had an average daily volume of 50K BTC; if we suppose the same for the new god (likely much less) and an average fee of 0.30%, you would get a little less than 3% of your old credit back each year..and you will reach 20% in 7-8 years and 100% in 30 years! I really hope the new investors have same great plans to relaunch the new exchange and help it grows to process 10x, 100x the old average daily volume Title: Re: and Gox... is baaack in the game Post by: Gator-hex on April 14, 2014, 01:25:55 PM Stealing the loot of others to protect the crown's trade routes is nothing new.

The tainted brand is still a strong brand. However, Gox is worse than tainted and they probably need a new name. The "captive audience" comes from people who want their money back. |
