Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

But why? It's bitcoin related. I don't see the problem.

Stratis: Same supply as Ethereum + Masternodes + ICOs + Bitcoin a Core Dev. 90% cheaper than Eth. Do the math.

I'm curious - how did he know that mtgox userid 5125 is Zhou Tong?  Is there a list somewhere that matches users to the userids?  I've been trying to track down another thief and I know their gox userid from the leaked data but I haven't seen a list of names.  Did I miss it?

Also curious about this. Probably some by mathing balances and trasnactions? or maybe this information became public with the Mt Gox investigation?

That's an interesting turn of events, but at this point I'd strongly advise reporting this to the police, will it be in China or where you reside currently, as it would protect you against problems that may arise later.

The condition of 「Bitcoinica will no longer pursue the case」 is not viable as Bitcoinica will be required to cause legal action if people attack it.

USD: about $140,000 + $5000 frozen at AurumXchange (under SJ account)
BTC: about 20,000 BTC

I do notice that the amount is significantly low compared to the initially stolen amount, especially in terms of BTC, and I don't see money laundering causing such a large loss.


Finally, by posting this publicly you also cut yourself from the possibility of not "pursuing the case" as doing so would likely result in you being considered accomplice should any involved party (including bitcoinica customer) decide to pursue the case anyway.

Stolen Bitcoins = 617,000 BTC?
Is the actual number higher or lower?

EDIT: it would be interesting to know what the tokyo police will find out about the historie of some criminal actions related to mt.gox.
