Is there any news on what really happened. They just seem to make up more shit every day.
What's happening is that the courts are calling them on their shit. The guy behind "mtgoxrecovery.com" filed a petition with the Tokyo bankruptcy court alleging fraud. A professor at ETH Zurich who showed that "transaction malleability" could not possibly account for losses of the size indicated, and that info was provided to the court. The Tokyo judge then extended the examination for another month, and the Tokyo Metropolitan Police are now involved.
Meanwhile, the bankruptcy judge in the US, where Mt. Gox also filed for bankruptcy, says Karpeles has to show up in person or Mt. Gox doesn't get bankruptcy protection in the US. Which means the US suits go forward. One of which is against Karpeles personally.
Oh, and some ex-Mt. Gox employees talked to Reuters about what's going on. They're also talking to the Tokyo cops.
Things are moving forward, and not in the direction that Karpeles wanted.
