Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

Given Gox filed for bankruptcy, is it better (in terms of value that can be retrieved) for the goxxxed traders to sit there on fiat or on BTC?

Anyone know Japanese bankruptcy law?

Vietnam officially bans Bitcoin

Its fud according to friends in Vietnam. People love spreading the FUD.

To counter the FUD, the most important news of the day is actually something unrelated to Gox and Vietnam.

Fortress has bought $20m worth of bitcoins at an average price of ~$900

Still complete denial and delusion......amazing

I don't get your point....

That searching still excuses for Mark and the other heads of bitcoin who covered this up is not helping your cause !

It would be better to hunt those insiders down right when the selling at Gox started...

Vietnam officially bans Bitcoin

The biggest mistake Americans ever made regarding Viet Nam was in thinking it was relevant.

I don't understand why so many downvotes. It's like there are a lot of people who just want gox to disappear. Everyone who lost money should just "move on". So what if you lost 100000 dollars ? So what if there's a plan to save all the money AND improve the bitcoin world in the process ?

Karpeles and the other insiders have to be prosecuted! I'm strictly against any solution providing those fraudsters an easy exit.

Fortress are not idiots. They wouldn't have purchased an asset like this unless they believed they would get at least 5-10x return

Of course they will be prosecuted. BUt now is the chance for the first time to build a truly transparent and crowd sourced exchange. 1 million people have the interest in doing so.

Just do it. You don't need Gox or Karpeles for that.

am I reading that right ? only $20K invested in Bitcoin, but it is the first step which is positive.... also I wonder what do they think about this investment today if they bought at an average of 900
