According to B24's operator the German and Polish government froze the accounts. I find it somewhat unbelievable that this coincides with the engine going down, but if these were true, this would be the first government intervention AFAIK.

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

I heard there was some bugs in code and people reported missing money. If they called police to check this they had to freeze accounts. I dont know if this is actual reason but its possible.
