New Mt Gox Press Release - Feb 10 - they are claiming flaw in bitcoin protocol !

[FeedbackLoop]

So much FUD in here I dont even think people REALIZE that theyre FUD'ing

The only people to blame are Gox and panic sellers.

FUD is a Darwinian selection force. Give some credit to the FUD'ers for the work they do in removing the simple "got-into-debt-to-speculate-in-Bitcoin" people.  

Tragic, but so goes the evolution of Bitcoin in its exchange aspect. The future lower volatility with other currencies sends its thanks!

Dont listen to GOX. Reference wallet software does have this problem

[tozak]

MOTHERFCKING GOX BULLSHITTING TO SCARE NOOBs. This is not a FLAW but the design of wallet to validate transactions. It has BEEN FIXED by reference design. But fcking retard Marks still didnt get his shitty wallet software updated.

Sure, it's BTC fault haha.

So this is pure FUD by gox? When are these guys actually going to go under? Cannot fathom how they're still in business.

They're an exchange where you can't get money in or out, so pretty pointless... DIE GOX, DIE!

Anyone expecting a second large slide when the US market wakes up?

Yeah, I'd expect if one holds even 0.5 BTC, for 50% loss, a bit reading up first, then decision about panic or not would be advised.
But, sheep will be sheep, I suppose.

Guys, mainly only one thing you can read up from this is that ex Magic the Gathering folks couldn't eat the cake they had on the table, and now are even further avoiding taking the responsibility for actions.
Someone said - it may be well played game to regain (stupid and highly unlikely) loss they may have, and I posted few opinions on matter, check my last post, links inside.

Don't be THAT stupid guy who sold at 110 30 min ago. Think twice. Read up.

[tozak]

Ohhhh! Bitcoin is busted, didn't you get the memo?

Even Rick Astley just got Goxed!

[jubalix]

More or less, exactly

[gyaoshi]

well, this is one giant fuck up. either MtGox is outright lying or bitcoin will go on in a coma. perhaps MtGox justs wants to buy cheap who knows. but this can have serious implications for trust in developers.

totally agree， neither MtGox is fuced up，or BTC， but it seems MtGox is more likely doing tricks here。

Really...How stupid is gox?? This mass on transactions will only boost the mess on gox up..shit heads

[Misesian]

FFS I missed the crash, how long was it at 110 for?

[cwfabc]

shit mtgox

[medUSA]

I really don't understand why some were panic selling as low as $500??
(Now price are back to reasonable levels)

This Gox statement of shifting blame is obviously another excuse not to pay out, it only affects people with fiat/bitcoins inside Gox.

Gox has been trading below other major exchanges for days now, Gix pulling away is kind of expected, right? For those who have coins in exchanges elsewhere, there is little to worry... why doesn't those people see that?

[nosf009]

FFS I missed the crash, how long was it at 110 for?

I was online at that moment, took me 30 sec to refresh, already was just line down, and back to 500+, so a guess would be: 3 secs
Basically someone just blindly believed mtgox statement and did their own doom. I mean, to be roughly even on sale at 1xx USD, you'd have to have bitcoins since when? 2012? LOL.

MtGox has been the cause of most of the crashes. They are not incompetent but are malignant, otherwise they would of closed their doors. But instead they are making good money with throwing the market at any direction they want.

But the Bitcoin community is a flock of emus, who are not able to organize, to finally root out MtGox from the entire market system. When a proposal is made about doing something to protect the integrity of the market, then all the emus will hide their heads in sand and hope that the free market fixes everything...
Most of the bitcoin enthusiasts are moronic get-rich-quick people, who dream about getting rich while doing nothing...
