What happened to mt gox and bitcoin sounds more like virtual bank robbery; comparable to hijacking an armored truck of gold and replacing it with fake gold.

Its more of. I am gonna store 1000 gold bars with you in your vault. Then one day you schedule to come pick up the 1000 gold bars at 12:30PM. Instead you have a duplicate (fake) truck come at the designated time and pick up your gold bars and your truck shows up 5 minutes late. Then the next day you head over to the bank and say you never received your gold! At which point the bank says they already sent out your gold but you have proof you never received it and they allowed a fake entity(malleable tx) to transport it. |

To me I think it's a strategy to spike the price of BTC. Hold everyone off for a month and when they release the withdraws the price will sky rocket.

MtGox is fine. They have now switched to a codl storage service. They are keeping the bitcoins away even from you so you can hodl for eternity.

Yeah I think Mt.Gox is fine too. Once they allow people to withdraw their bitcoins again. |

No it really just sounds like a lot of bs from mt gox and other questionable exchanges. The reality is bitcoin keeps continuing on just fine while everyone on the outside panics and tries to attack it. I'm not sure about anyone else but it it weren't for Mt Gox everything else would be fine right now.
Please someone tell me if they have had problems with the bitcoin network at all because this seems all like FUD. Just take the Forbes interview where they continue to refuse responsibility trying to place it on the Foundation something he is apart of. How has everyone forgotten bitcoin is decentralized, you don't call up lead developers like they are your personal tech support. Coinbase has put the work into doing things right as well as even much smaller exchanges like Vault of Satoshi.
The fact that people are still hanging off the words of these liars is unbelievable. IF tx mal is to blame then why can no one move fiat out of Gox either? When it came out everyone saw it as just a distraction for mt gox and it has worked. mt gox is still fucked and nothing has changed other then them trying to bring down the entire protocol with them.

It more likely the other way around. They didn't know what they were doing. Maybe they tried earning on rising and falling price of bitcoin and used their customers btc to do so, got burned and now they are in trouble, don't know what to do. I mean it happened in banks it could happen here, people are greedy sometimes.

+1 Mt Gox using people deposits for investments/own expenses is robbing. So thieves got tricked with easy trick "Mt Gox can you resend me my Bitcoins, I still didnt received" is pretty funny |
