I was able to login a bit after the database error message. My account does have an "M" in front of it. I don't use MtGox, so can't test order cancellation and such.

If this is all part of the coinlab transition...a little notice would have been nice.
This is what I'm kinda leanin' toward at this point. The "database error" message seems decent evidence of this. Super unprofessional and stupid to boot if they did indeed decide to randomly upgrade without warning and in the middle of a huge rally.
|
|
|
I'm curious why MtGox thinks its advantageous to lie to it's customers on twitter. This is obviously not lag due to "trading volume" :/
|
|
|
Well, I dug up the info for my Gox logon and first attempt got the database error.
|
|

What you mean "on hold"? MtGox USD/BTC ratio is on hold, yes, but why not log into bitstamp or any of the other 20 exchanges and trade all you want?
Yup.
|
|
|
So if this is truly do to user volume, are we going to see one hell of a sell off?
At worst we'll see a dip to 120 or something before exploding up again.

I blame the hamsters
It's always the hamsters. This is what Gox is saying on their twitter: Due to high volume trading at the moment, there is a lag in trading and order cancellation. WOW! I totally believe this lag is 100% due to trading. Hurp-aderpderp

The one thing it seems BTC businesses need to learn is how to effin' communicate. It's never a good policy to keep your customers in the dark. I mean, at least let people know you are AWARE there is an issue if nothing else.
|

|
I guess a server update is happening. Multiple reports are coming in about a account number change.
I find it is always a good policy to spring an upgrade on your users without warning and in the middle of a busy trade session!

I was just able to log in and Cancel a trade, but the lag on bitcoinity is now at 28 minutes.
I think there is a USTZ conspiracy to constantly harsh our mellow. When we broke $100 instawallet/bitcoin-central had to freak us out by making us think someone made ff with 40k BTC before telling us they still had it. Today MtGOX decides to just die.

Gox lag now at 20 minutes. Massive correction about to occur? Or Wednesday morning rally to $400?
I find it unlikely the lag is due to an order, more likely traffic/DDoS/upgrade gone bad. Maybe the NPR mention this morning is driving a load of traffic?

Why don't you call it by its proper name? Magic the Gathering Online eXchange.
Because ain't nobody got time for dat?
|
|

Hmm. I got in, put the website looks slightly different from what I remember.
Did the Coinlab merger finally happen? Either that or everyone is waking up thinking "I'm rich bitch!" and getting ready to cash out. lol! I think it is more likely that the bears, having run out of funds to dump and such, are mad and thus resorting to DDoSing

We're going to $200 before a significant correction of 30% and back up again. Hold on to your eyeballs. Shit we could hit $1,000 by next month. Since the start of the year, we have been up about 18% on average every week. If that rate continues on a weekly basis, we'll be over $70K by the end of the year, lol! In before someone posts that XKCD comic.

26K BTC to hit $400. 400 x 26k is $10 million. Not that much considering their are 10,000 accounts waiting to be verified at Gox that could easily bring $20 million.
Yes, the ever growing line at MtGox is another bullish signal. ALSO: Everyone else pronounces it Mount Gawx, right? Some turd on NPR this morning said Mount Gee Oh Eycks. I want to make sure I'm not crazy.

During last night's mega rally, bid depth barely moved and is still over 10milUSD. btcchina is holding well at 1000yuan = $161usd.
All signs point to this rally continuing.

The following response shalt be considered the end of this thread. OP is free to lock it afterwards:
Cool story, bro. You sound mad.
|
|
|
Oh snap. 1162BTC buy! Not a small chuck of change!!!
|
|
|
I can't believe that, through all this, bids are still over 10mil. That's such a great sign!
