So where are the 650,000 BTC? vanished? converted to fiat?

auction off domain names..

lol

he is already a domain name provider (kalyhost) so now he wants to sell domain names that are normally only a few dollars.. for thousands.

what he should do is find the mtgox customers that have most debt, and give them the most valued domain name as collateral. thus the person in debt can sell it and get reimbursed

h also wants to become a consultant and get paid to do speaches about bitcoin and talk about his story.....

mark karpales, your pure cheek!!

hmm,, so he was inspired by the original story that bitcoin is not valuable, but now a well-known and controversial: D
ago, who has the domain?? no relationship with mr, satoshi?? or satoshi was not a person's name?? what is an IT company??

I really hate articles on Wall Street Journal. We'd have to subscribe to read the full story. From the headline, I basically already know the gist of it, but can someone copy and paste the whole article on here?

Just Google the title of the article. WSJ doesn't apply its paywall to visitors that follow a link from Google (presumably to lure in new potential customers).

What proof is there that those missing 650K ever existed? Perhaps there were never more than 200K BTC held.

Thank you so much for telling me this. I never knew that!
Now I can read all the WSJ articles  ;D

Edit: the block is off, but the subscribe ad still pops up, but I can close it.

Does this work for other sites that use paywalls?

They probably got traded for Magick cards... (ie. MtGox = Magic The Gathering Online eXchange)
