The only info from MtGox is that "Once it is deemed enough users had the chance to get their account back, the exchange will be open again (opening time will be announced at least 24 hours in advance". What does that mean, one day or one week?

[Update - 5:00GMT]
We are still working to get the claim site up. People are probably getting tired of us pushing the time so we're just going to say it should be very soon. We'll update as soon as it's up.
Thank you for your continued patience. |

Thank you for your continued patience. That site being up wouldn't mean anything per se because trading will be open only "Once it is deemed enough users had the chance to get their account back". How long is that? |

Depends entirely on how many people attempt to reclaim their password quickly and how much needs to be done manually. Realistically IMO we are looking at the end of the week.

I'd guess most users just want to grab all their BTC/$ and get the hell out of there...
Mt. Gox lost all trust due to their "crisis management", in my opinion.

Indeed. I am incredibly glad I didn't leave anything there.

You guys are kidding, right? They weren't hacked, this experience will make them change and improve their security procedures for DBAs, and they've been hard at work since the event happened to improve security and bring everything back up for everyone. What would you have preferred they do? In my opinion, they've demonstrated professionalism, and I look forward to the improvements which the problem will engender. We can't expect them to identify security holes on a contractor's computer, and its unrealistic to think they'd be invulnerable to attack, especially considering the massive amount of money that flows through there each day. They're not prophets or fortune tellers, they're regular people, and they've reacted to this situation as well as any person could.
I'm getting emails from the operator of TradeHill trying to exploit the situation...glhf faring any better in security when all eyes are on you.

I dislike circuit breakers.
And unsalted md5 was work of the previous owner, the new owner immediately added salt to md5 (while preparing a new site).
Someone know the exact rules of password to claim account? I am making more and more absurd passwords, 20 character long and using characters that I never used before (And I am not likely to remember) and it still say my password is not secure enough.

Bitcoin has absurd volatility.
LOTS of time it varied 5% in 30 minutes. There are days with 300% or more variation.
Circuit breakers would only cause people to move to other exchanges.
There are other security measures that can be done, that are not circuit breakers (like requiring confirmation, warning the operator to watch what is happening, etc...)

My old one was 10 characters long, including caps, smalls, numbers and specials. Only one vowel, so no dictionary words. The new is 12 characters long, with blah blah blah. Only one blah blah blah... |

What about just circuit breaking withdrawals temporarily? Allow trading to continue, but keep all money onsite incase a rollback is required.

As we slide down the banister of life, this is just another splinter in our ass.

Yep. They have shown they don't understand security, or how to solve problems. Once they are back, I am taking everything I have with them out and then I dont know what I'll do, as if yet to see any major player in the game show a level of competency required to do this correctly. |
