Bitcoin CEO spent stolen funds to Buy Sex

[pepto]

I want to see a 'photograph' of him in prison. Words of his suffering are encouraging, but someone somewhere out there has to have the pull to get a snapshot of him.  No photoshops please though even these would be heart warming.

Like they say, a picture says more than 880.000 coins!

Oh wait no that's not the saying...

The journalist who came with "Bitcoin CEO" deserves his head chopped off. I would gladly do it.

Titles like this make me sick too. They think it would sound better but they never think how ridiculous is it really.

If titles like this make their way even to these forums, no wonder that the media is misreporting this stuff..

Happened a lot when he got arrested as well, the media was all over this "bitcoin CEO"

[Bit_Happy]

I'm sure his wealthy wife will be thrilled to hear about this, and he might have trouble getting her to share the stash of BTC he probably gave to her.

Was he married? Never heard of him having a wife...

Kids too (if my memory is correct)
Yes, she/they left for "safety reasons" when Gox was starting to stink really bad, so I believe he trusted her with a large number of BTC.

All that stolen money for sex,not bad ,propably he knew he will goes jail,so before he had some,a lot of pleasure
Big mistake from his side,if hewill do that kind of scam in USA now he will be very rich and free man,whatever USA is land of free people Garza can tell you that

I wonder actually how many japanese people would have heard of Bitcoin and if they have heard it, if they know who the CEO of Bitcoin is. I think that unfortunately TV is still very important in nowadays news, so if the average guy gets his news from TV because all he does on the internet is instagram, he may actually believe Karpeles was the CEO of BTC and he is now in jail.

I have only seen this guy once before and it was in the bitcoin movie that came out a few years ago.
I use the internet for more than Instagram/twitter and have heard of the mt gox headline a few times but never saw the guy until that movie and now from this thread.
Am in America.

Well he had made a great life even banking womens well now at jail he will be the woman,anyway op must change the subject i were scared if were someone of bitcoin team.

[Hugroll]

lol i didn't even know bitcoin had a CEO. i guess it was for the better because it doesnt look like hes upto good things.

[fuddudle]

that doesn't surprise me at all. Bitcoin was designed to be trustless. Unfortunately, trading it on a centralised exchange, especially one centralised to that degree is completely the fault of users.

especially one centralised to that degree is completely the fault of users.  

even in 2015, the majority of noobs ... store bitcoin on virtual wallet (or crappy phone with game malware pollution).

[BitcoinEXpress]

Anyone who left coins on Gox after the June 2011 fiasco deserved to get their coins stolen.

Anyone with more than two brain cells not fighting each other for survival knew what was going to happen.

[gentlemand]

Yup. I remember researching coin buying options when I first became interested in the idea in 2013. Gox was the still the daddy. With five minutes of googling I learnt that I couldn't withdraw USD, it had been hacked, it regularly went batty, the CEO was a weirdo who I'd cross the street to avoid and it was halfway around the planet. Er, fuck that shit.

October 28, 2015, Former Mt Gox CEO Mark Karpeles was re-arrested for suspicious activity involved with moving embezzled funds to his personal accounts. Japanese media reports again the new arrest of the infamous “Magical Tux” as the “CEO of Bitcoin” and supposedly he had quite the run with Prostitutes during his last release time.

So, Mark Karpeles was out on bail and opted to transfer some bitcoins to his bank account that, BTW, wasn't locked, and used some of the money to get his pee-pee wet.

lolz

[visual111]

A guy who looks like karples....probably pays for it

[Nagle]

This is why Satoshi needs to come forward to be honest. We need another face to represent bitcoin instead of that french fuck.

Roger Ver? Charlie Shrem? The Winkelvii?

[ShetKid]

I doubt mark cares about it now, specially he is already in prison. Does anyone know the time he has been sentenced to prison for ? And have they proved it was him behind the hack even though its obvious ?
