He was onto it in 2011:

"In June 2011, Manchin joined Senator Charles Schumer (D-NY) in seeking a crackdown on Bitcoin currency transactions, saying that they facilitated illegal drug trade transactions."

Must be kicking himself - he could have cleaned up if he'd bought back then - no wonder he's a troll now Wink

Someone in the States should make a quick video for the Jon Stuart / Stephan Colbert "Let's flip a district" campaign.Wouldn't that be great if he got lampooned for this.

Mtgox BTC still selling for $50 USD! Bitcoinbuilder keeping the ghost of Mtgox alive! Josh actually posted new warnings about Mtgox insolvency that you have to agree to before you can continue trading.

The following guy is just not accepting the reality of the situation here.
2681.47000000   GOX for    0.80000000    ฿ ea.

If you are selling at 0.8 you might as well go for the 1:1

So wrong Jorge.  With the best will in the world you should really know better.  Would you expect the same from a student?
Seriously.  Download Bitcoin-QT.  Sign up to an exchange.  Buy yourself 0.1 BTC and spend some of it on junk.
To continue to plough this much time and effort into researching cryptocurrencies without having gone through that simple step seems daft.

Before I do that I must create that "jorgeology" thread, so that you can all share my experiences and feelings at using bitcoin and watch my conversion to the cult concept.  Wow, it will be so Californian, will bring back some sweet memories...  Wink

Seriously, what do you expect that I will learn, what opinons you think I will recant,  if I tried using some bitcoin?

Surely I am entitled to have an opinion on global warming and energy sufficiency, even though I have not burned a single poud of coal in my life?

Which makes me wonder..... has someone hijacked MtGox? a hacker got everyones details somehow?

Something odd is happening as the "pdf" is not what it says it is ... and also.. send you what the balance ?

If this is MtGox- then wtf?
If this is someone hijacked the system that now has my email, and can send emails out with strange attachments- wtaf?

Basically WTF?

Totally. I gambled a bit with this one, I admit. Gox is a honeypot for potential investors. Yes, armchair Gox critics, there is value there.

I'm pretty amazed he's still using the same ol' naysayers argument.

This thread is much more readable sans Fonzie and Mah posting pictures of graveyards every 10 seconds.

It is tough gauging the current market sentiment right now. Since those 2 are not trolling uncontrollably I think its bullish for the time being.

http://www.theverge.com/2014/2/26/5450206/who-stole-400-million-from-mt-gox

Suggestion in the article that the theft was an inside job. Not by Mark, but a temp employee. Remember announcements last April about Gox hiring more employees to deal with all the new accounts and AML/KYC requirements?

Mark claims the coins were stolen yet remain "temporarily" unavailable. This is nonsense, unless he expects to recover them from the thief.

*edit*

The thief or group might also be sending out these recent phishing emails. What if they got away with ID docs as well? Scary thought.
