Good coverage of the Gox meltdown, imho.
http://freemarketcafe.com/2014/02/descending-mt-gox/The author, Joel Bowman, is special for me - I first heard about
BTC from his articles shortly before the crash of April 2011 and I signed up with Gox just in time for them to lose my email addy to intruders. As a result I've been getting spam to that email account ever since, so Gox has never been far from my mind even though I never used my account with them. Heh.
Aside: I just took a trip down memory lane by Googling "bitcoin crash april 2011". Do it if you have a free moment - the breathless predictions of doom are hilarious reading today and can help to keep the present situation in perspective.
Quite right, and I'm glad you pointed that out. We've been here before - of course under different circumstances, but the emotions are very similar.
On another note, I sent you a PM a while ago aigeezer, was wondering if you ever got that.
