While I enjoyed the vid and Mr. Pierce is fascinating and undoubtedly a smart cookie, I totally agree with much of the above Medium post.  It is along the lines of my own thoughts posted earlier; that it was a letter of intent to negotiate a sale only, with no consideration acknowledged or anything to show a deal had taken place.

Pierce, via Sunlot does not even 'arguably' as he put it, own any Mt Gox (Tibanne) shares. OK, he is free to feasibly make an offer to just take the brand and re-launch it.  However, the existing civil rehabilitation will sort the creditors out with the surplus of what is left anyway and it is extremely doubtful anything else can be recovered.  So there is no benefit to creditors apparent in BP getting in on the act and screwing with the ongoing receivership process.

Just for the record I do have a few Goxbux at stake (a handful).  I long ago wrote them off and will be pleased if I do actually get anything back.

It looks like a letter of intent that only agrees the basis of a (non-exclusive) negotiation for a sale.  And this only after due diligence is completed (which it may not have been, as the buying party could have backed out, or not completed due diligence). 

Interestingly, it appears no payment is specified - so it does not follow a deal was done unless a consideration was agreed and exchanged and referenced in another later document.  A 'sale' needs a price, a payment and a receipt or reciprocal exchange of title to the asset.

Karpeles asking to rescind was probably because nothing happened and it was just a loose, open ended and non-finalised negotiation.

This document does not prove a sale, just that there was an agreement to negotiate one on the terms laid out after they had looked at the books.

Unless they show evidence they completed due diligence and some sort of consideration was paid and/or shares were handed over then it is not credible that it actually happened.

I doubt the Japanese Receiver will take this seriously.

Sums it up. This is how corrupt the system has become.

I don't see what it would add in functionality or privacy that would make sense.

Looks cool.

I am definitely among the Monero fans here.

But that made me laugh.

Hey old chap - many thanks for the hat upgrade!  A bunch of inadequate tokens as a mark of respect.

Yes, I have been upgraded, I am most grateful to our marvellous milliner.

The chap deserves a WO knighthood IMO, but meanwhile I hope he will settle for my gratitude and some merit when he pops up next.

Nothing wrong with Stamp, but if you were in the UK you'd need to take an exchange rate hit to get into Euros or USD - and it takes time to get to their Slovenian-based bank.

Coinbase Pro is close to instant if you're sending direct from a UK bank.

I was joking, mic.

Just... brilliant! You got style, Bob.

I like to think of it as quality over quantity, but the IVF clinic disagrees and my 22-year old supermodel g/f is now looking at me somewhat differently.

Can't we club together for a Gay Niggers From Outer Space FULL PAGE takeover of Satoshis.place?  I am in - you bought the beers, time for the thread to payback and have a little fun. Let's blitz it.

Nah.. IMHO: next ATH Dec 2021 - after that no more pattern fractal repeats.  All bets are off, the market will anticipate / front run / spoil it.  Plus, there won't be enough emmission to satisfy demand.

We get one more blow-off top - four year after the last one.   By then we will have entered a new paradigm.

That second pic spoiled it.  Is 'it' saying 'd'you wanna **** me' perchance?

I think we hail from the same wretched, indecisive, self-destructing domain, but did you have to?!!

Just how much is a death certificate in Jaipur?

Or am I just being too cynical...

Ooh - an upgrade?  Brilliant - any way of getting the ceramic shadowed somehow?  A lot of black hats here, would love to see Picasso's bull a little more distinct if it's actually at all possible.

No worries if not of course... The sterling work is much appreciated.
