guys, why so hard on mt.gox, they are getting screwed by everyone! $2.9m stolen by the government, $70m being sued, and apparently all US financial institutions are done with them... you think this new company will be any different when the government starts fucking with them or when they are getting sued, all financial institutions are banning them, etc?
sure they could have better PR... and i see why people arent using them because of this of course. but its not really their fault whats going on is it?
I'm guessing its because most people have never dealt with a retail broker before. I have been trading forex for over 14 years now & have worked with so many different retail brokers & this is just the way things go. maybe not as long as gox has people waiting but there all the same it always a headache to withdraw funds. Things will get better over time as they become more established & learn how to properly process withdrawals. People need to understand no matter how frustrated you are with gox, them falling is it a good thing for the bitcoin community as a whole.
