10:00am tokyo time approaching. I can see massive sells on gox, nearly 5000btc in last half hour. wonder why.. mtgox announcement maybe?

[jr3951]

maybe, or maybe the FUD from the guy saying mtgox lost 750,000 btc

[Blinken]

The FUD is coming down in chunks. It's a veritable FUD storm.

They surely did. Via TM, or hacking, or account takeover that was fixed in January, but has been in the wild for who knows how long. The fact that they never said: "Your coins are safe." or "We're solvent." speaks loudly!

Not really, a company wouldn't want to have to even entertain those doubts.  Imagine the headlines: "MtGox denies it is insolvent".

Unconfirmed reports on reddit that trading has now been disabled.  Still waiting for a screenshot from someone I consider trustworthy.

[bomb7]

Trading has stopped. I can confirm there is no activity happening. Of course there has been no announcement though. It just stopped.

This order book is usually moving like crazy. http://bitcoin.clarkmoody.com/   Nothing now.

And the price on their homepage usually updates constantly but now it just oscillates between two similar prices.

The bigger they are, the harder they fall.

Since that's so serious, with no evidence we have to assume that's made up. Update, they posted evidence:

It worse if it's legitimate.  It's an appallingly put together document.  If that's the level of competence being brought to a crisis then there's no hope for MtGox.
