If the coins were "leached out"... Guess what... those coins are not "locked up"... They are withdrawing on the other exchanges now... (Or rather... still. Since they were removed a long time ago. Allegedly.)

Remember, gox is insolvent... (so others keep trying to get everyone to believe) There is no BTC or money there... it is all in someones hands, off the Gox exchange...

You guys have such funny logic... You try to have your cake, and eat it too... but in the end, you just don't actually get it. The only ones destroying the market is you. (Well, you are destroying your value, and increasing mine. lol.)

Also note... if Gox is dead... Don't you think he will "cash-out" his own holdings, and our remaining holdings on the other exchanges... (Again, allegedly.)

If he kept getting money... then he is not insolvent... Because he has money...

Not sure if you know this or not... but... um... "Gox isn't actually dead"...

Just the fact that you believe that, is proof of your lack of understanding of the situation.

Here is the secret to trading...

When prices are high, cash-out for money... Lots of it...

When prices are low, cash-in for BTC... Lots of it...

What a novel idea! I know, right... Apparently that concept is catching-on... Just an observation I made the last few years I have been here. Might try it now! Looks like it works real well for a bunch of other people.

Shhh... don't tell everyone, or you will screw it up for the rest of us.

And the solvency of the other exchanges... You are confident in? Based on... Hope...

I forgot, all other exchanges openly show audit reports, and proof of holdings... Let me get those links...
(Pending links) Bitstamp
(Pending links) BTCe
(Pending links) Huobi

Hmmm.. seems they all have "confidential solvency". Now what?

How is this for FUD...

When gox comes back online... Withdraws will work...

Hope you sold your coins high on your exchange, before the withdraws start rolling out of gox!

I plan to catch more low coins on gox, since I am sure the panic will drive it to even lower lows too... Might get a few thousand BTC at $10... or a couple hundred thousand if it hits $1... Then visit your exchange.

Gox is dead! OMG... What do!

I have all my LTC there!

Oh, wait.. you said Gox... I got scared there for a minute...

Should I pull-out now? Bring the BTC I just paid $100 for, to your exchange, and cash-out there, for $1200...

Oh sorry... $945
Oh wait... $600
Um... $475
Damn... I better hurry, before your exchange is down to the $100 I paid for my new coins.

Oh, maybe I'll just wait until the website comes back online, and buy the remaining coins, then move them to your exchange, and catch that 400% mark-up... Since you guys are sooo flooded with abundant money, and everyone is sooo eager to buy your coins there. Then, when you fall to $100, I buy them all back, and move them back to Gox, who should be about $300-$500 by that time, and sell them again!

And how much money is flowing into the other exchanges? I am sure everyone with money is eager to fill those exchanges with funds, so they can buy coins at 5x gox-price. You know... because everyone likes to pay more, to get less.

Nope... didn't notice hundreds of thousands of BTC being cashed-out on all exchanges... Completely missed it.

All month long... xD

Not to mention updating the security certificates for HTTPS connections. Takes a while for domains to propagate through the whole series of DNS broadcasters and even longer for SSL to confirm the new IP's as "gox" or "mtgox", or both.

Also not easy restructuring the whole website to use one, or the other, or both, as valid page-loads for accounts and forwarding.

no

I sell USB sticks on ebay...

Costs me $0.10 per 4GB stick... sells for $5.00

Why people want those so bad, I have no idea. School?

800 pcs. a month makes for great returns. ($3360) Plus a great seller rating, with minimal losses. (Easy to just print-up a label and have the post come to pick them up in bulk.)

Best way to make money with BTC, is just buy some low. Hold and forget them for about two years... or ten... or twenty... (Not sure how old you are. )

Yes... I would love another 70+ bitcoins on Gox right now... 70K would be even better... I know how to trade on a falling market. Anyone can make money when it goes up. Making money on the way down is a skill I have mastered.

I don't even have to type lezbo anymore... google just knows what I want... I could search for "frog" and get lezbo results... Seems I have been profiled by google. You should see the ads it shows me here!

Wow, look at that... Google is down now too... Must have broke it again. Too much scrolling through images... of frogs...

I can try, can't I.

V, I need a body... you need a head... (not gay) Lets join together! (Ok, sounds even more gay when written. lol)

<-- Runs off to google lezbo porn, to restore manhood...

Yea, because this pre-announced down-time is such a shocker...

I'll still buy your GoxBTC...

If he just purchased gox.com... that is a good sign. They don't let 3-letter domains register. They have to be transferred by the original owner. Thus, he payed millions for it, I am sure. (If he is actually the new owner of it.)

LOL, Gox vanish... There are sooo many people watching those guys 24/7, they couldn't run anywhere if they tried.

Where would they run? Under-water?

You guys are too damn funny...

How are your other exchanges doing, BTW... Rising like a bat out of hell... right... lol.

Gox will be back up in a few minutes. As always.

Might want to talk to multipool... If you want a real challenge for regulation and hopper-test. He will throw 800MHs to 5GHs at your coin. Drive diff right up through the roof, then come back once it is low enough to gain again. (Best way to test your coin in the wild.)

Though BTCe has limitations to coins they use. They would be worth paying to adopt this coin. That will create cross-value ties to BTC, LTC, USD, EUR, at the least. Have fun regulating those markets. Would take millions. (Dogecoin and Megacoin tried that with massive fails. Due to bad intentions, I am sure.)

mcxNOW (talk to RealSolid)... Just don't mention me.


Then you are seeing "orphans"... They were real blocks, but the mini-fork you were on, has been over-run by the larger fork. Thus, it has to remove those rewards, since they were on the "wrong fork".

Are you getting a lot of those? You may be too far away from the faster nodes. That, or you are on one slow node, which is just doing its own thing, unable to keep-up with distribution.

Try shutting the wallet down, wait a second, and start it again. (If you had a list of connections, the fastest responding ones will become your "new links". That far-link or slow-link will not respond fast enough to link-up.)

Well, until the node issue and connection issue is resolved... that is how it should work. (I get that on fast-coins all the time.)

Also, try to change the work-load size to 64 not 256... that can sometimes help you submit faster. Since you are "done working" 4x faster than still processing a larger work-load. Though, that will add more rejects, since you are submitting real close to others who just found a coin. As opposed to still processing work, and then the work gets reset, thus, no submit, thus less rejects submitted. (Do not do this if it slows-down your miners. For me, it actually speed them up. ? Less thread congestion from bandwidth, from the smaller work-loads?)

Send it back, test my wallet... JK
See if you hit the jackpot in blocks too...
AQaCkRuRNxwEcMBnGBTy7Cha8eGjRXso1C

We will make millions sending the same single coin back and forth!

Tested... enjoy your coin!

... or not... lol... crashed the network! lol. Nice!

Took forever to build that send-coin block. 4-min!

Nice, got three blocks instantly after that! I'm gonna send more! lol. Real rewarding. Sent 1, found 11.16 coins back from mining, instantly! I think the one I sent it in, was even found by my own miner.

My quote of "value", was attempting to imply that there is no (quote)value(/quote)... (Singular form).

Eg, some of us are mining for "dollar value", others are mining for "AIR value", others still for "BTC value"... However, the "regulation", as you state, will be strictly limiting/regulating "value"... (Which in your eyes/opinion, is BTC value. A singular "value". If you don't put a value on it, you can't regulate it. You have chosen one value, of the many desires.)

Again, not implying that "you" (or entity), will knowingly harm our value. However, there is no mention of what protections will be in place to stop purposeful leaching of this "regulation". Which can easily tap-out all resources available for regulation.

Have your "regulators", tried this on any existing markets? If they are that good, then we should see this regulation in effect, and you could instantly be able to show us actual rewards, on that "demo market". (Again, this is a new member, with a new coin, simply saying, "trust us".) No credentials, but lots of white-papers written by others.

{NOTE: Still, none of this actually matters to me. I am just throwing the thoughts rolling out of my head. I am more concerned with final application and execution, not history. However, proof is always better then concept on white-paper.}

Ask the hard/stupid questions now... makes it easier to answer them again later, as they crop-up.

I would like to see a demo of this regulation in action... Do it to a coin with a difficult challenge. "Emerald Coin". That coin has a horribly nice 20-second block-time and is super-sensitive to hoppers and price changes. Would not take much effort to get direct feedback, and returns, with that coin as a test of ability. It is essentially on the bottom, yet, amazingly not on the bottom.

Also, you have a 100-1000 year business plan all set into place, for the ones who take-over regulation once you guys are gone? Since there will still be miners, and reward-regulation will still be a required element of the coins mining-returns.

Gotta love my lame 20-questions... I think I have like 5 more left... xD

Doing good at beating me down, by the way... Real professional responses. (That's another +10 in my book.)
