He means that this was formerly an API showing "stuck" transactions, but that now, transactions shown through this API are real.

Okay wait. Can you explain it please for dummies 

This API belongs to mtgox itself and is still online? What does it show? Where doe the 50BTC come from? And why are they listed inthe code?

So the data is really from MT Gox itself?
Just recorded by that website?

Why dont they deactivate their API?

Why dont they deactivate their API?

I guess that's a question everybody has been asking themselves for weeks.

Did this API also recognize the 200k movments, which are now 4 days ago?
