Deals done in the background, maybe??

i am going to shut up now.
It was written out of context and clearly in the wrong chat.
Trading on Gox was always a thing that i thought was possible that ukyo and Great could have been playing around with but would they really have been doing that unless ukyo were garanteed by the the ceo, his friend that there they would get there funds out when gox went under, it was very obvious that things werent as it should on gox for a very long time and even if the gox mess was the big reason why ukyo cant access a big part of his funds, how would that explain his claims that he cant talk about it, it just dosent add up i think.
