wow this is getting so interesting....i'm guessing he's trying to broker a buy-out deal for Gox and failing that, then bankruptcy would be on the cards.
cmon investors...buy Mt Gox and bring it back to life!

Seriously, i think he is mentally ill, psychotic. His behaviour in all that is happening is complete non sense, just crazy. It is even hard to label him incompetent, criminal or a scammer, he just seems insane.
I agree. He doesn't even answer any questions with anything pertinent or meaningful at all. It's as if all of this really isn't a big deal to him, and the only things on his mind are his weight gain and that he feels a little sleepy. Is the guy just a sociopathic narcissist? He's completely oblivious to what's going on around him.

Dont get me wrong, I think he's a piece of $hit for letting the company 'lose' 700K BTC but he would have thousands of people hounding him about millions of dollars being lost. I would be delirious and delusional too with the pressure and expectations on me if i were him. He's probably got death threats coming at him left right and centre. I'm pissed and i've only got $300 at stake, imagine people with $30,000 or $3,000,000! I kinda feel for him a little and hope he gets his shit together to bring gox out of this mess.

What a bunch of bullcrap. The guy doing the interview is trying so hard to pat him on the back: "poor Mark, we know how much you've done." Poor Mark is avoiding questions as much as he can with "can't disclose, more or less, I'm fat, my cat is messing with keyboard" - nobody cares! And finishes with "maybe I should go to sleep now" - yes sleep well sweet prince, don't forget about a late night snack. Like an interview with a teenage emo! Man up, you're dealing with serious money here, money people kill for.

I'm sorry I can't feel any sorrow or pity for this crook at all. Doesn't seem the least bit remorseful at all.
He dug his grave a long time ago, he better lawyer up good, because the shit's going to hit his fan hard.

honestly, i don't think he is just that stupid to think he could do one. There is just way too much money involved and some ppl would hunt him for the rest of his life. He would need to literally dig himself a 5 story underground apartment in the middle of the amazonian rainforest. shit, i heard you can get a person wiped out clean for $10000. he ain't going nowhere.

I like your post, really! It's so lyrical (not in a sarcastic way), but ppl lost their money on GOX and they just continue buying? I would try to recover my money first and wait for some really positiv siginals. Maybe that's just me :/ arrrgh
Some of those burned at Gox will walk away and never return. But consider, they were never actually part of Bitcoin anyway. They were trading imaginary bitcoins created by fraud. The good news is new participants will not continue being drawn into the scam by the brand recognition MtGox commanded. It will take some days for the dust to settle but this will be a net positive.

If you have a thing for visiting Mtgox in Japan this is who you should look for Lost your life savings? Lost everything??? visit the Office in japan Mtgox. this is who you should look for Founder/Ceo of MtGox yeah the guy responsible for mtgox and shutting down the website and permanently shutting down your account. "Means" you can't get it back unless government steps in and requires Mtgox to Reopen the website to return the money to everyone which i highly doubt the government will do. lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZddzSC7AuAwhe purchased round trip airfare back home in 7 days

Im kind of blown away at the disinterest and unprofessionalism. Then again, showing up casually with a starbucks on the biggest disaster day of your multi million dollar company kind of blew me away too. I pictured him casually standing in line at Starbucks while hundreds of millions of dollars was floundering under him. Strange. The conversation reads very, very strange. Like an interview with a teenage emo! Exactly

My crazy theory: JP Morgan buys MtGox for $1 and promises to pay all MtGox-clients with real money?

Yep. Lets all feel bad for the criminal. Mark is under stress lol, he robbed millions of dollars and got caught, what did he think that would happen?

I think you're right. At least he seems to be in denial. If that chat log is real, that is. He seems oblivious to all the pain and suffering he's causing with his gross incompetence and his pathological lying. I mean: His # 1 worry at the moment is the fact that he's gained a lot of weight recently? That's the message he wanted to convey to the world? He has time to chat merrily about his cat and his own weight problems, while completely ignoring all the angry customers whose lives he has destroyed, many of whom are probably sending him death threats right now? He seems like some kind of autist, at the very least. Medicated?

I hope you all know he is talking about his own wallet (unavailable), not the one from the company. Mark just verified that MtGOX lost 700k BTC.
This is a good point. It seems quite likely he is referring to his own wallet, not that for Mt. Gox. On the other hand, the comment about the document was that it was legit, "more or less", which is quite vague. He used the same expression earlier when describing whether he was doing ok, when he really wasn't. The earlier comment in this thread that he is just trying to avoid answering questions seems fairly accurate. Perhaps we'll get some clearer answers when the bankruptcy court gets to hear this case.

The draft and this IRC log are FAKE!
..and BTW GOX has been under the control of US agencies for quite a while. Karpeles did a deal with them. His life for control of GOX.
