Neither do I. You missed the point.

Criricizing is cheap and easy.

He is not a sociopath. He is fatty - growing fat is a protective (psychologically / emotionally grounded) response to stress. A sociopath wouldn't care / wouldn't grow fat.

Good for Gox.

I have a hypothesis (that I cannot prove / that can be completely wrong):

1. Around two years ago in somebody's head there was a thought to own the the biggest crypto-fiat exchange in the world. Such exchange could either be created from scratch (not easy) or purchased. This somebody is influential.

2. This somebody arranged for a person or institution from England to approach Mark Karpeles with an offer to purchase MtGox. The price on the offer was ridiculously low. Mark declined the offer.

3. The offeree told Mark MtGox would not succeed under Mark's management (he is too young, he does not have legal expertise, he is not connected, etc) and maybe even placed a slightly better offer. The second offer was also declined.

4. At first ''soft'' measures were taken like smear campaign by Max Keiser (England) and trolls on this forum.

4. Next ''hard'' measures were taken to prove Mark is not capable of running crypto exchange business: people dba US stole / frozen / confiscated worth of millions MtGox's clients funds at Wells Fargo and Dwolla.

5. Another offer was placed by a person or institution from England. Mark declined.

6. A guy (from England) was paid to threaten Mark through this forum with a physical confrontation: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=304568.0;all Mark did nothing.

7. Another or the same guy (from England) finally confronted Mark physically: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ob9Ak1t09Ao Look at the stalker: his sign doesn't say ''where is my money'', it says ''where is our money'' - the stalker wants to appeal to a broader public. If you wanted your money, you would put your login name on the sign, wouldn't you? If you wanted your money, you would negotiate/ present your case instead of uttering phrases that appeal publicly, wouldn't you? He did not forget to mention he flew from London.

8. Now Mark dislikes anything that comes from England. He will soon be ready to accept an offer from the influential somebody (who happens to be not from London).

-----------------------------------------

A few years ago I heard about a similar case in the financial sector.

It's the people doing business as US gov that arrested the money (several million US dollars of Gox's clients at Wells Fargo and Dwolla) last year and set in motion problems at Gox.

Stalkers should give Mark time to focus on work to undone the harm done by US gov.

Look at his relaxed face. He didn't even care about the money he supposedly deposited at Gox. His goal wasn't to get the money back. This is not how one looks like and behaves while trying to get money from a debtor.

I think someone hired him to stalk Mark.

Tradingview although has more features, misses ticks, e.g. the recent Gox low reported by bitcoinwisdom and clarkmoody is 302. Tradingview reports the recent low as 311. Features are less important than having the correct raw data!

Note every of the indicators you use there will show bad values due to the underlaying data missing.


Come on...

Bitcoinwisdom doesn't have to do anything.



Please explain why Bitcoinwisdom would need to deprive himself of Gox price watchers and thus deprive himself of income (banners + donations).

Go to hell both of you.

Hi,

I use Gox and Stamp. Both exchanges halted BTC withdrawals. It is my guess the exchange businesses suffered damages due to rouge clients who claimed and received bitcoins twice.

Someone please come up with a method to aproximate the amount of bitcoins that were sent twice.

I simply want to know if exchanges lost 1 thusand BTC or rather 1 million BTC.

Jan,

Can your programme also calculate / include the information about the value of double spends?

Date           | Number of double spends      | Value of double spends
2014-01-29  | 470                                  | e.g. 59099 BTC

OK. Get it.



It is my understanding that both Gox and Stamp allowed this scheme - both halted btc withdrawals.



Gox and Stamp are my exchanges. I wanted to find out if there is a way to aproximate the value of double withdrawals from Gox and Stamp up till now.

E.g. someone finds a 7.95757474 BTC transaction from Gox address to a dishonest client's address on a certain day and next finds a corresponding doubled withdrawal of 7.95757474 BTC a few days later.

This is just an idea by a non-techie (me), so don't laugh at me.

Would it be at all possible to estimate the value of double withdrawals (effected through malled transactions)? If the exchanges were tricked into resending 1k BTC then it's no problem. If they were tricked into resending 100k BTC, then we might have a big problem.

Just trying to find out if the exchange I am using will go bust 

Is there a way to calculate how many btcs were stolen through these malled / assumed malled transactions?

                23 482 BTC stolen? all from gox?

How does a trader mitigate this bug? Would this order be filled, had he placed this order today (not a few days earlier)?

I don't know if there is other way. You should be compensated for your order not having been filled.

Have you reported this bug / will you report it to Gox? This is a very very serious BUG.

Thanks.

Is there a way to know / assess how much btc was stolen from Gox?
