Plausible deniability is still key to keeping things as they need to be. Everything else becomes circumstantial.

One does not simply unmask Satoshi. Proper planning ensures this.

Thumbs up to Cavirtex! It's great to have something like this in Canada. The fees are a bit crazy - but hey, we are Canadians. We are used to paying more.

I hope your issue is resolved quickly Smiley

If the price starts dropping, you can rest assured Gox will lag. The lower they go, the longer the lag. Same lag, different excuse. Sometimes they lag because of success. Sometimes they lag because of panic selling. Sometimes they lag because of DDoS. Or, perhaps they lag to manipulate the price.

Yeah but this is the first time I've witnessed them shutting down.  Seems convenient they are saying heavy DDOS while the price is dropping.  I don't believe DDOS results in panic selling.

Right before their last shutdown, I saw two massive sell orders @ 30 cents. It appeared on the Tradehill site (which has not been working since then) right before Gox went down 12+ hours ago. I don't know if it's a glitch, but it wiped out all of the other active buy orders according to Tradehill's site.

Looking at http://bitcoin.clarkmoody.com/widget/chart/ it appears (based on the red volume spikes) another huge sell off and Mt. Gox pulls the plug twice in a row.   I believe they do not want to see BTC under $100 and think they can control it.

I was thinking about that too, DDOS never killed them before just made them slower. Today they're pulling out as soon as price is failing.

You suggest pulling out? Smiley

This does not look normal  - does it? I am definitely not a financial genius.

I was wondering this too.

This happened the last time it went down too (12+ hours ago). I was watching orders on TradeHill's feed (and others). There were two massive sell orders @ 30 cents.

I lost a wallet back in 2011. Lesson learned for sure. Thanks for the tips!

I am an overclocker who has enjoyed mining bitcoins in the early days. I have mined off and on since 2010. Please allow me to post in other areas of the forum.

Thanks very much Smiley

It's too bad the forum had to resort to this. But I understand I guess. Some arbitrary measure of legitimacy is usually needed when the topic revolves around pursuing wealth (directly or indirectly).
