"We should have an official announcement ready soon-ish. We are currently at a turning point for the business. I can't tell much more for now as this also involves other parties." They are being bought obviously. If their loss is not too big then it might be good buy. And it might be great dfor Bitcoinland overall if some big and competent name(s) buy them.

Guys look at this story A friend of mine just sent me this link: https://github.com/apngasm/apngasm/blob/master/BACKERS.txtHe is working remotely for a Japan company and his employer just realized that one of the backers of his kickstarter project is the guy from the breaking news today. "Mark Karpeles http://www.tibanne.com/ PHP can do stuff!" The interesting part is that today he changed the referral site from http://www.mtgox.com/ to http://www.tibanne.com/He said he was a "very generous donor" "It looks like he was an active backer on KickStarter, backing over 100 projects with the most recent ending less than a month ago. Many of the projects he backed were Open Source software or hardware." "every project he backed is a project I would back. He has extremely good taste" "I've had no contact with him other than the kickstarter survey though. He has not repsponed to any of may messages through KS"

SecondMarket was not listed in the "Gox Stinks But We Swear We're Honest" Coinbase blog post last night?

I'm in full conspiracy theory mode and will try and post my full thoughts later but if anyone for one second thinks this wasn't 100% planned to drive the price down to a point where they can buy back the debts for pennies on the dollar, tank the price, shake confidence, and take over control of Gox is fooling themselves. Funny how regulation, and a brand new shinny well regulated (probably well taxed) new exchange will be by Second Market is the topic of conversation today.
Buy and hodl the big boys have just implemented a very well planned take over of Botcoin and even though we may see more blood shed in the end those who hodl strong we be wildly rewarded.
You can't legally buy your own exchange's bitcoin to cover losses. On top of that.. if the document and recent body of work is their standard of operations, then no way in hell could they pull that off with out leaving the most obvious trail... in other words I hope they rot in Jail..just wish it was with fiat bankers who committed equally evil scams Show me the law that says this. A fiduciary duty[3] is the highest standard of care at either equity or law. A fiduciary (abbreviation fid) is expected to be extremely loyal to the person to whom he owes the duty (the "principal"): he must not put his personal interests before the duty, and must not profit from his position as a fiduciary, unless the principal consents. the basis to the idea that You can't run an exchange and then tank it behind the scenes as to buy up all the shares at a lower price in hopes to cover the lost of your shareholders money. The fact you think that idea could be Kosher blows my mind lol Not to mention its basically insider trading and fraud.

Expect the China crash low around 400 to be retested on stamp.
Just got back and looks like my low was hit. Much profit, awesome.

Would be great for Bitcoinland but still a very vague and non-commital statement by MK. Easy to say, a bit like "Your funds are very safe".

Where does this mess leave Bitcoinbuilder?
Bitcoinbuilder's main trade was buying Goxcoins at a discount for real Bitcoins. He was gambling that Mt.Gox would come out of it's problems.
If Mt.Gox is bust, those Goxcoins are worth nothing, and Bitcoinbuilder is the loser in the deal (the gamble).
Or have I got the wrong end of the stick?

so what's a bad news for Charlie Shrem ? WWIII ?
BTW I am still not buying the whole Gox situation, it is hard to lose 10K bitcoin and even harder to lose 50K Bitcoin without noticing but losing all the just cant be sold to the public, something really big is happening, and I would say for long time now, this didn't happen in just few weeks. I am really waiting to see the real story behind all of this. +1

I think its wrong, only those who bought Goxcoins are screwed (at least, it seems)

My new thought process is any major established financial company can save gox, ( this is the investment ) earn the respect and adoration of those who have been assuming all their btc and fiat are gizzone. Change the name, introduce the new team, but acquire the customer base ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I would be biting at this opportunity if I was rich as fuck lol

Lol, why would Bitcoinbuilder be a loser? Theyx bought shit all, it's their users who are buying goxcoins, BBuilder just takes a hefty fee cut.

No, they want us to believe they are being bought. The HTML comment move is so ridiculous it is painful. They knew that HTML comment was going to "leak". Karpeles is clearly implying they are being bought. I don't believe shit, probably it will just be a make-up action. Nobody sane would throw money at Gox just now, without a months-long due diligence. No fucking way.

The recovery is maxed out for now. It's going to take at least a day to consolidate and break $520 if not longer.
about to blow past $520...thoughts? ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)
