is this the end?

will bitcoin die off? is this the end or a new, more secure beginning?

Yes, this is the end. Because MtGox is dead, which has been confidently predicted by both bears and bulls for years, we're all going back to cash without even a glance back, lest we be turned to a pillar of salt.

1 exchange company (which was already in huge troubles) going bankrupt is going to kill the entire currency? was bitcoin so weak?

Obviously, but with all the knowledge people have gained in cryptocurrencies, we can now apply that to legitimate fiat businesses, except maybe Erik Voorhees, who I guess will just live on a plantation growing bananas which he trades for precious metals and stores in his underground SWAT-proof bunker.

Calm down, this is a bumpy ride but BTC isn't dead.

430$ and going down! Sad

Mt Gox dead is good news, Bitcoin won't die over one exchange, hold your horses

To quote somebody, it is more like the end of the beginning

I love the biblical reference.

no, mtgox dead would cause people to fear of btc..

Gox was causing more damage "alive" than now when it's officialy dead. Get over it.

Every end is a new beginning. MTgox out of the game. But there are many players right now.

Yes , it's the end. Just like it was in 2011 , 2012 , 2013 and it will be again in 2015 and 2016.

People often forget good things someone has done , Mtgox is one of the reason bitcoin is here in the first place.
Don't blame everything bad that happen to bitcoin on them.

It definitely is, send all your coins to me before you owe someone money for holding them.

Decemberists and afterwards, thank your lucky stars you get an opportunity to get in cheap. =D

The good ship 'opportunity' just pulled into harbor. Toot toot!

Why would this be the end?

Yes this is the end, bitcoin price will reach 0. Please proceed to uninstall all your bitcoin software and delete all your wallets.

Note: this post is sarcastic. I am joking. I am not serious.

Mt Gox is dead but Bitcoin won't die over one exchange calm down!
