Mtgox wont let me withdraw my BTC. They're probably stealing everyone's money and I care when my money gets stolen.

Either that or they sold everyones bitcoins and halted withdrawals and theyre going to buy them back now that the price dropped and open withdrawals.

well thats a nice strategy

I wonder if it's true? I smell shenanigans.

also multiple  people who were begging on btc-e for bitcoins now sent their bitcoins to that address too.

It looks it is BTC-e's address then. Though the only way to know for sure is to deposit money in your account at BTC-e and see where the BTC is transferred to.

Great way to make a little profit. I guess they're learning from banks...

That's really cynical, sinister level shit...I don't think they would do that. Although at the same time...they know that if they stop withdrawals the price will drop, so they would be sure to be able to make a profit by doing this. Still, I think this is a little too tin-foil hat for me.

done. its transferred to that address. this is btc-e 's address guys

I remember that btc-e addresses have been mistaken a bit often for others. In the "sheep marketplace " run wasn't a btc-e address believed to be one with the stolen coins?
