"
Dear MtGox Customers,!
"
We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the recent suspension of external
bitcoin transfers. Fortunately, as we announced on Saturday we have now
implemented a solution that should enable withdrawals and mitigate any issues
caused by transaction malleability (please see our previous statements for
details on this issue). "
"
Thanks to our friends at Blockchain.info, MtGox now has a workaround that will
use a unique identifier created by Blockchain to show whether transactions have
been modified or not. This will prevent any fraudulent use of the malleability
issue and protect the assets of our customers. "
"
Resuming Withdrawals!
"
With this new system in place, MtGox should be able to resume withdrawals
soon. At the beginning we will do so at a moderated pace and with new daily/
monthly limits in place to prevent any problems with the new system and to take
into account current market conditions. "
"
In order to launch the new system, we are going through the following steps:"
"
-" Re-indexing the entire Blockchain (approx. 32 million entries)"
-" Fully deploying the new NTX ID"
-" Implementing a new bitcoin withdrawal queue that needs to be tested"
"
We will update everyone again by Thursday at the latest. "
"
Additionally, you may have noticed that we have added a new login system that
sends you an email when you successfully access your account. This is an
additional security layer, but as always we strongly encourage our customers to
use the 2-step authorization options available in our Security Center. "
"
Thank you again for your support, and we look forward to resume bitcoin
withdrawals as quickly as possible. "
"
Best regards,"
