Don't post such things - any news of MtGox results in an instant flash crash

I'm waiting for it. In 3 days the Aurora Coins will go live and then we will see its real value... near zero ? Nick.

I was wondering that there is no thread about this topic here. Have read it in the german news 3 hrs ago. On golem.de or heise.de you can almost read weekly something new about Bitcoins. I count this as a good sign that Bitcoin will go mainstream soon.

you are right. mainstream media is writing about bitcoin everyday in germany. just google bitcoin in the news section. back to topic: it is a b s o l u t e l y impossible to understand how 200 000 coins can get "lost" unnoticed. maybe the authorities found some of the coins mk tried to steal and the "uups they were lost" story is a cover-up

Interesting, could mean a return of 0.11-0.23BTC on the goxcoin. Depending on how fat the lawyers cut is

Either that, or he is a careless moron of cosmic proportions. I'd go with "tried to steal but got caught by the hand", though. To still have faith in humanity However that still makes him a moron, as he should have waited for several years. But that's on understandable scale of stupidity. Other way, someone who runs a largest exchange but does not know balance of their own address which has 10% of all bitcoins ever mined at that point in time, and never in 4 years recalls where that coins went to, that would be just a ridiculous assumption, which would explain alot of unexplainable things in the whole MtGox situation, but raise much more questions. Like, how he managed to not forget how to breathe for so long.

It's too be expected but that new statement is just such bollocks! MtGox Co., Ltd. had certain oldformat wallets which were used in the past and which, MtGox thought, no longer held any bitcoins. We're talking 200,000BTC here.... No way you can just forget about them/lose them/assume they're not there. Mark is just realsing that he cannot keep this bullshit up, there's no fooling the btc community.... the media maybe, but not us.... so he's forfeitng some of his booty to keep the authorities happy. Now he just has to 'find' the rest. These btc /should/ legally belong to us customers... Will we ever see any them again? That's the BTC750,000 question.

I sometimes wish we were still in medieval times. Such problems were easily solved in minutes back then with some fire and metal sticks. Refreshes memory better than any amount of lawsuits.

Send him to the Tower of London! I'm 5 minutes away from there and would be happy to 'extract' my bitcoins from him!

So I was rereading the crisis draft and then suddenly:
"We will need to inject fresh coins inside the system in order to establish a basis to eventually clear the books by running the exchange (perhaps 200,000 coins). " <-- Bam!
Well well well, look at that.
