Oh wait, right after the other post: Mt.Gox Account recovery service Account recovery request submitted at 2011-06-21 17:31:11 GMT. Your account recovery request has been accepted. You will be able to access your Mt.Gox account once the site opens again. Yay! Strong password worked...

Fun fact: as the list of account holders is public, anyone can send out "Your account recovery request has been accepted!" e-mails, with links to wallet-stealing ninja trojans. So do your due diligence.

Does your account have big enough balance?
By big I mean does it have couple Grand USD or couple hundreds of BTCs in it?
There's a theory going around MtGox is only aproving smaller accounts so they don't (can't) stir things up at the initial re-opening.

Possible, but ?? Anyone with access will have one hour to add BTC, if they are looking to sell.

Well we will know for certain when enough big accounts start to scream. I thought that extra delay (over $100 (?)) was just for security.

Mine got approved, but guess what, it's empty, since it got hacked a few days before the big hack as you can read in other topics...

It's possible Mt.Gox is going in order of who's got the least there, and if that's actually true, I could think of two reasons. 1, they are trying to avoid a run on the bank scenario. 2, they're trying to avoid getting sued over the larger accounts that people with the leaked DB are trying harder to fraudulently claim. Of course, it's also possible that the people with larger accounts just have more money because they have jobs, and don't get to stay up as late as I do because they have to go to work in the morning.

Just got my accepted email, and I'm a smaller account with almost 23 BTC and no cash in it, but I'm putting cash in first thing tomorrow, I want a chance to buy if it bottoms out. Not sure about the big account little accounts thing, but I did offer two verifications for my account and a long complex password. Glad I'm going to get a shot to get to work when it goes live tomorrow.

you can't expect them to process your deposit the same days especially now.

you can't expect them to process your deposit the same days especially now. That's what I'm hoping for, the money has been sitting in my account waiting for transfer to one of the exchanges and I'm definitely putting some in Mt. Gox. Maybe it's best if it doesn't instantly transfer so the big players can get in and potentially sell a few coins at lower prices. If I'm able to sell off at $17 I'll definitely do it now that I know my account is live, but I guess we'll see because I'd actually be taking a small hit at $17 after I made my last buy at $18 shortly before the disaster struck. Interesting tomorrow indeed....
