I'm sure this has been stated before, but the 'heist' of MtGox, if there in fact was one, was one of the five largest bank robberies in the world.

And Bitcoin was just getting started.



Those are the questions, are they not? Was this ever a heist, as Mark once claimed, or was Mt. Gox acting more like a bank operating on a fractional reserve? If it was the latter, then who "borrowed" those coins--unless, of course, you are willing to say "nobody"? If so, then it had to have been a Ponzi scheme from the beginning.
