Updated 2013-04-29Edit: Please also provide the time in UTC if you're updating us - thanks. Edit2: Usernames added as additional information. I've read in a few places that the approval queue for Mt. Gox is in the thousands. Does anyone have a source for this information or is it just unfounded speculation? - 2013-04-29 08:00 13,760 ghdp
- 2013-04-28 21:17 14,420 seleme
- 2013-04-26 14:00 16,720 ghdp
- 2013-04-20 13:53 13,940
- 2013-04-13 25,300
- 2013-04-08 14,500
I should mention that the latest value only represents the MINIMUM number of applications awaiting approval. It doesn't give the current MAXIMUM.

My account randomly got flagged just a few days ago for no apparent reason, so now I've got to wait to be verified before I can withdraw any bitcoins or do anything except trade. Fun. Anyway, when I first got into the queue my number was precisely 14500, as I recall, though I don't have a screenshot.

I guess this means it's likely that the price is going to continue to rise although some will be:
1) signing up and abandoning the account 2) opening an account to sell their bitcoins 3) waiting for the price to drop before buying
so don't expect every new account to be buying.

https://support.mtgox.com/entries/20919111-aml-account-statusesRequirements: A valid copy of a government issued photo ID and proof of residence (less than 3 months old) - E.g. A utility or phone bill. It's probably faster just to mail your scans in, get there in 3days or so. I paid these guys http://www.idocscanada.ca/ to apostille my passport and utility shit for $100, plus priority mail fee $40 and now have 'trusted' limits. You could also just wait for CoinLab to start up whenever that happens. May be faster

Sounds like MtGox was in fact running fractional reserve, their safety margins are running out and so they're using this new technique to limit outflows. Pretty bad in a Stock Generation sort of way.

I don't think that distinction is necessarily useful. On uptrends they probably don't have the bitcoin, on downtrends the fiat. For safety probably a mix of both. Bitcoinica did the exact same thing after all.

I wasn't around during the Bitcoinica fiasco so don't really know the details of how they operated their liquidity. I only know that they were hacked and lost a great deal of Bitcoin.
Just curious as to why liquidity needs to come from Mt.Gox and not from the market?
Isn't it the act of buying/selling from users the source of liquidity?
Mt.Gox isn't a market maker is it?

It does come from the market, but there is often quite some time between depositing and withdrawing. It would be unsafe if Mtgox kept all that money (both fiat and BTC) within reaching distance. In case of a hack, it is important that only a fraction of their money is 'hot', while the main volume is in cold storage, preferably entirely offline. There is a security/user experience balance in deciding how much they want to keep in hot storage to account for daily withdrawals.

Not quite accurate. Among the other fraudulent/scammy things Bitcoinica was doing and for which they were famous, consider this email: From: Zhou Tong <> Date: Thu, May 3, 2012 at 5:54 AM Subject: Re: I want to deposit money on Bitcoinica To: Tihan Seale <> Cc: Donald Norman <>, " <>, " <was send to wrong email of mine, so donald is cc'ing me back in> Hi, I'll look into the problem too. To my surprise (and maybe yours), it seems that we bought some Bitcoins at too high prices. This might be an explanation for the drop in equity for recent week. I'll take these actions to try to rectify the problems: - Increase the confidence level to 2500. Since the increase in guaranteed liquidity, our percentage hedge has increased a lot. It makes sense to "play big" since the market is more mature and much less volatile. We can always revise this decision if anything changes. - I don't really want to increase the spread, but I can keep adjusting it based on my observations. If you permit, I will adjust between the range of 1.003 to 1.008. If our Mt. Gox fee is 0.25%, we can at least "break even" with such settings. We actually made a lot of money from position liquidations (except for the huge and forced ones), because they often take place at relatively unfavourable prices for the trading range. We have a huge open interest right now (about 180K BTC for both sides) so our potential profit is high. The biggest problem right now is that the market doesn't move. We did make some profits when the price rose to $5.5 last time, but we lost them again due to the bad investment decision. Also, I propose a new feature to increase our revenue: - Secured loans. We don't have to "settle" for our customers. We can allow them to settle themselves at the prices they like. However, we are going to charge the Sell interest when they have negative balances. A forced-settlement system will be implemented instead. They can borrow USD against their BTC balance, and vice versa. We may require 200% mortgage (borrow up to $1 against $2 worth of BTC), and a default reserve of 10% (if I borrowed $100 against 40 BTC at BTC/USD=5, the default rate will be BTC/USD = 100 * 1.1 / 40 = 2.75). The benefit of this system is to make the money flow faster within the Bitcoin economy and we can rely on Mt. Gox less. It's like the bank's overdraft facility that charges insane interests. But Bitcoin needs this. Lastly, I have lowered the spread for the Exchange feature in a previous git commit. The next thing I'm going to do is to limit the number of exchange transactions each minute to prevent abuse, and then make the spread more reflective of actual market liquidity. Then, we can offer the Exchange feature to the mass audience because they can pay less to exchange money on Bitcoinica. Exchange transactions will move the "surplus". They are always some nice small market orders that generate profits for us. Summary: strategies to make more profits: - Less hedge. - Faster money flow. - More volume. - More trades within the boundary (surplus is between -confidence_level to +confidence_level). - More open interest and more deposits (the interest differentials can generate $1000+ revenue every month currently). I can make a living without the salary, so skipping a few months before resolving the problem completely isn't really the problem. Anyway, I'll try to squeeze some time to implement these changes as soon as possible. PS. I've traded almost A$20,000 with BitPiggy now. (And if it's unprofitable for them, they shouldn't continue dealing with me.) They're legit and what they are doing is viable. BitPiggy has much more starfish than us, but this makes them look legit. Best Regards, Zhou Tong Boldage mine. Obviously they were running it as a bucket shop, bar all their protestations to the contrary at the time. MPOE-PR appears to be doing something known as "unfounded accusations and trolling". I advise you disregard them, their Ignore button is gold for a reason.
People have a year+ history of claiming this about what I say, only to be humiliated a few months later. But it's okay, because by then their mistaken assumptions and hardheadedness has already cost them all their BTC, and so they can disappear into the void, leaving room for a new generation of idiots to repeat the same mistakes. Read my old posts, it will make you much smarter.

I'm guessing you were calling out pirate@40 as a scammer, but that's not exactly notable. Who wasn't, aside from the delusional investors? I invite you to back up your claims against Mt. Gox. Certainly what you say is possible, but anything's possible.

I'd never noticed some people have gold Ignore buttons. What's the criteria for your link to be 'golden'ed? Basically, the more people that ignore you, the golder your Ignore button becomes. It's a nifty way of showing who tends to be ignored by people a lot, for whatever reason that might be. Here's theymos' post when he actually implemented it, that has some more detail on how it's exactly implemented. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=68329.msg796962#msg796962Edit: And for completion, one more quirk of the ignore system: every 500 posts you have makes one of your ignores not count. So someone with 1000 posts who's had 8 established members ignore them would only have an ignore count of 6. Source: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=68329.msg1584088#msg1584088

Pissing off a coupla dozen idiots. Or saying something that a few people REALLY do not like and those people make MULTIPLE accounts. MPOE-PR may not be the most sensitive of people, but what he writes is usually spot on (although I disagree with many of the opinions, I agree with some of the really important ones). Just a question for everyone to think about: You CANNOT sell bitcoin you do not have (because you have to settle with the unique number that is confirmed in the block chain IF people use FIAT to buy BTC and they remove the BTC from their trading account). This is a fact. So, if tons of new people came to buy BTC and wanted to store it in their own ways (say kind of like the Winklevoss' already said that they did), and some exchange wanted to keep flow going and kept issuing BTC to people like the Winklevoss' that were withdrawing and the market kept going up at an incredible pace (and now the exchange is short BTC), WHAT IS THE BEST THING THAT COULD EVER HAPPEN TO AN EXCHANGE THAT IS SHORT A LIMITED FLOAT SECURITY THAT CANNOT BE SUBSTITUTED?

That was my intention but I've just remembered editing a post (the top post) doesn't actually mark the thread 'unread' for everyone. I'll new-post into the thread with each update. Unfortunately I've not heard back from anyone yet. I was hoping to do a daily update to see how many accounts are made daily.

I don't understand. How can you issue BTC you don't have? YOU CANNOT. Unless, you use the numbers from the "deposits" (which ARE NOT yours to use) When someone deposits, the money goes into the exchange (it should be segregated but in the failures of exchanges it does not seem to have been (even corzine was not doing seg properly). If you were doing this, you are basically "borrowing" others money and using it to short to make the commission to keep the flow going).

Well I'm glad to see at least some people have the sense to follow what has been going on here. Yeah, MtGox didn't "stop trade" back when BTC went up 150% in two days. They did however as the price was falling and they needed a little time to beg, borrow and steal enough to be able to settle their gaping short position. Hurr durr.
Yes, it's circumstantial evidence, and yes they are idiots. Nevertheless, never attribute to plain stupidity that which also could be explained by malice. You'll live longer that way.

If you were doing this, you are basically "borrowing" others money and using it to short to make the commission to keep the flow going).
That can't be legal. Really? how naive are you? Mt Gox is following the money laundering laws but name the organization that is regulating how they conduct business? You are complete fools if you leave deposits there. The winklevoss' did not not (and they are spoiled idiots) and yet you do? Anyone can make a bold claim. Can you back it up with evidence? What is a bold claim? That the winkelvoss' did not leave money on the exchange? Read their quote yourself hero.

Well I'm glad to see at least some people have the sense to follow what has been going on here. Yeah, MtGox didn't "stop trade" back when BTC went up 150% in two days. They did however as the price was falling and they needed a little time to beg, borrow and steal enough to be able to settle their gaping short position. Hurr durr.
Yes, it's circumstantial evidence, and yes they are idiots. Nevertheless, never attribute to plain stupidity that which also could be explained by malice. You'll live longer that way.
PS: She.
I'm absent from these forums for months at a time, sometimes even years so I don't really know who you are so apologies if I've mischaracterised you but you seem awfully angry at something (you've got 3000 posts to your name so you might have a lot to be angry about - I really don't know). I agree with you that it's circumstantial and I'll agree that you'll protect yourself by being cynical. May I ask, are you pro or anti-bitcoin? Also, were you in another thread where I asked about why Ignore links are coloured?Edited: Removed last question because it was THIS thread

It's a bold claim you're making of Mt. Gox. And what's with the name calling or are you just being over familiar?

Unfortunately I've heard no more from the users that are in the queue. If anyone else has any information I'd love to hear from them.

Yes, they claim to restrict deposits and withdraws because they are following money laundering laws. SEND ME THE URL WHERE THEY CITE WHO IS OVERSEEING THAT THEY SEGREGATE FUNDS?

Seems like you have anger issues. You're asking someone to prove a negative. It's not possible. This isn't evidence they're doing anything wrong. I'm not saying they're not doing anything wrong. You're making the claim - you need to back that up.

I answered a question from someone who claims they COULD NOT do something which they CAN DO. Then someone said it would be ILLEGAL. IT IS NOT as they do not have ANYONE governing what they do in regards to seg. Get it? Read the first time and stop projecting. You are a fool.

Ok, so you're a bit volatile so I'll be brief. There was no question about whether Mt.Gox can do this or not. I said it would be illegal for them to do this as they're taking other people's funds to pay other parties. They're still liable for the Bitcoins even if the whole thing tanks. This activity would be no different if Mt. Gox took the Bitcoin themselves and spent it on fast cars or loose women. Just because an activity has no oversight doesn't make it legal. I can only assume your first language isn't English as your posts are really difficult to follow... or maybe it's just me and my comprehension skills aren't what they used to be. Regardless, you need to make your point with a little less anger. I'm sorry for whatever is going on in your life right now that's making you this unhappy but really, taking it out on strangers on a forum isn't going to help at all. Good luck.

What happen with the seg accounts that JP Morgan violated for MF Global? Anyone in jail? You really think that is ILLEGAL? And there really is NO CRIME if you are short and then the market crashes and you cover your short so no one really lost any money anyway, is there? think about it.

Just keep opening accounts under false names and sending in bogus docs.
