It is obvious he has stolen the coins himself with help from a few others. And has managed (somehow) to fuck with everyone until now. He has been using stalling tactics to steal as many coins as he can. This is one of the biggest heists in history! You would have to be Jesus not to be tempted by such a heist.
you don't have to be Jesus when you can be filthy rich without stealing. Yes, mtgox may have had a good business for the while and they enjoyed it while it lasted. And now that wall st is getting involved, how long do you think his income would last? Its much easier to steal 750,000 coins my friend. And thats what he chose, the easy way. Just like most people would do. Here is an article that supports the above views http://falkvinge.net/2014/02/28/the-gox-crater-crowd-detectives-reveal-billion-dollar-heist-as-inside-job/

I believe the most important news now is what happened to the 750k btc (+120k gox)
Did they confirm they were in fact stolen and when it happened?
it makes absolutely no sense that 750k coins are stolen Of course Karpeles is going to say they were stolen. He can't very well say he just lost them. He blamed the core protocol. He blames everyone but himself. The relevant matter is that the coins are GONE, and they are not sitting in one big wallet waiting to be dumped. supply and demand- price is going to go up. It is obvious he has stolen the coins himself with help from a few others. And has managed (somehow) to fuck with everyone until now. He has been using stalling tactics to steal as many coins as he can. This is one of the biggest heists in history! You would have to be Jesus not to be tempted by such a heist.

We are looking bullish for the moment. This may be because the news has not been spread yet! It should not come as a surprise that mtgox is bankrupt! But people love to panic!!

wow that's a nice strategy right there! unless if they would check the check (lol ) right away in reality and making you look like a poor bastard in front of the girl you're trying to impress with your fake money Banks are closed on Friday evening until Monday So they cant check the check

Right know we are at a stalemate.

if we break 610$ today i would say we have a new uptrend dont look back at emptygox. It almost seems as if someone at Bitstamp is attempting to FORCE that to happen so that people will think this. We will need some more positive news to push it past 600 and further.

That is the dumbest answer I've seen from you yet.
As much as it annoys me that you keep introducing new reasons of why bitcoin is not for you whenever an argument shows that it is not a black and white answer and bitcoin could have merit I do value that this discussion is taking place with solid arguments.
The potential for getting rich is a reflection of the high risks you are actually pointing out. Bitcoin could be replaced by some other crypto currency. All the points you are making are the reasons why bitcoins current value is what it is and why it might be magnitudes more once they are resolved. Just like you many many people are saying the risk is too high.
Please don't put words into my mouth. I have never said that bitcoin is not for me. I have earned quite a buck with investing in bitcoin. The disagreement comes where I don't see that bitcoin has a very long future infront of it. I see about a year or maybe two. And I have been telling if the problems with the current market threat is resolved, then the price can go up. It seems that if you don't agree with the constant shouts of "now this is the bottom and it will go up!" or arguments like "bitcoin will be used for decades to come!" then people here will actually start to demonize you, with acting like you are saying things that you have never actually said. Hi- just a thought... If Bitcoin has a year or two, then whatever is going to replace it, then it must already be around right now.... so which coin is it? and what does it do that is going to make it out compete Bitcoin in your opinion? Ripple. Rumor has it that Jed is currently looking for a Frenchman who has a Frenchman roommate that both code to sell it to one of them for an undisclosed amount. Sometimes, you just can't make this shit up. Ahh, so ripple was made by Mark K and his plan is to cripple bitcoin so his ripple will go to da moon!

Bitcoin is an infant.. Its a currency and much more! %90 people don't realize the potential. %9 see it as a means of financial gain. And %1 know its the best thing that has happened to humanity (technologically) since the internet.
Fun fact: The top 500 supercomputers in the world are a total of 250 petaFLOPS. The bitcoin network is 342153.22 petaFLOPS and growing, thats 1369 times faster than the worlds top 500 supercomputers. This is what kind of infrastructure the network is built on.

It doesnt look likely we will go down much further. 550 seems the bottom.

No, I'm defending the fact that a commodity does not need a "market system" to have an exchange rate.
"Market system" being what I am assuming you mean as a group of centralized exchanges where we can see in real time the most recent trades between one commodity and another.
Ok then, when you'll take away all the centralized exchanges and leave localbitcoins to handle exchange, then what do you think will be the volume of trade and the price of bitcoin? Do you really think that any serious investor will buy their coins from craigslist? Without an centralized exchange system, then bitcoin will be values as much as bitcoin was valued when it didn't have a centralized exchange system. You probably shouldn't underestimate your lack of imagination that is limiting the extent and coherence of your arguments. Let's just say that you are not the type of intellect that I would rate to be inventing (or even merely imagining) anything like a P2P internet crypto-currency any time soon, or any other world changing technology that humanity can benefit from, like a P2P exchange for P2P currencies. For example, check this out. This will widen your imagination https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=462236.0
