It's the only way to really unload a ton of BTC on such small market. I just wish I had less modest bids in queue to take advantage of it

Names do not matter; however, if you insist...id...

Bitcoin is totally unregulated and there will be no enforcement. If people tried to make the few exchanges regulate the market, I will just open an unregulated exchange. While those other exchanges stop trading because the price got too low, guess what. Come to my exchange and sell at what ever price you want, because I will be making commssion.
So nope buddy, no regulation will ever happen. And thankfully so. Now I know why we have so many stupid laws and regulations in the US, from people like you who want everything regulated. This includes speed limits on highways.

Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless — like water. Now you put water in a cup, it becomes the cup; You put water into a bottle it becomes the bottle; You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.

Please. The SEC together with the Feds has been deregulating for years. This is why the housing market bubbled.

The bitcoin will be back to around 17.5$/BTC after we rollback all trades that have happened after the huge Bitcoin sale that happened on June 20th near 3:00am (JST).
Service should be back by June 20th 10:00am (JST, 01:00am GMT) with all the trades reversed and accounts available.
One account with a lot of coins was compromised and whoever stole it (using a HK based IP to login) first sold all the coins in there, to buy those again just after, and then tried to withdraw the coins. The $1000/day withdraw limit was active for this account and the hacker could only get out with $1000 worth of coins.
Apart from this no account was compromised, and nothing was lost. Due to the large impact this had on the Bitcoin market, we will rollback every trade which happened since the big sale, and ensure this account is secure before opening access again. https://support.mtgox.com/entries/20208066-huge-bitcoin-sell-off-due-to-a-compromised-account-rollback |

Well, it was too good to be true. Thought I really made $250,000 in 1 day by amazing luck.
Understandable decision though, looking forward to seeing the market open again.

Great attitude Man. I was a little conflicted myself, though not half a house worth. |

I bet the hacker was trying to push the price down to $.01 so he could cash out as much BTC as possible. Tux mentions $1000 worth of BTC... but at what price? If it was $.01, then the hacker could have walked away with 100k BTC.

No, trades should not be cancelled.
MtGox screwed up with their security. They need to refund the guy who got hacked, and leave the trades as they are.

Except that is impossible. 550k BTC was stolen. Noone but the original seller have that amount. What do you expect mtgox to do? Become the first fractional reserve exchange? |
