Blaming the disappearance of the MTGOX coins on an unknown hacker, or surmising that the private keys to the cold storage wallets have been lost or corrupted, or that some government has confiscated the coins without telling anyone about it stretches all credulity.

850,000 BTC supposed to be there
(minus)
202,000 BTC found in old format wallet
------------
648,000 BTC still missing

Using today's price in USD of approximately $625, the total value missing amounts to

648,000 * $625 equals $405 million disappeard

Someone needs to provide a very good and believable explanation where these "missing funds" have gone.

After all of the investigation is said and done, and all this time that has past, it is unbelievable that those on the inside of this investigation don't already know exactly where the missing coins are; that is, if they ever existed in the first place. In case they never existed, then 202K is all that there ever were. That amount still yields 202,163 BTC (on hand) divided by 7,952 (approved claimants) which equals an average of 25.4 BTC per claimant that can be returned!

If some large bag holder has all the missing coins, and the trustee knows who it is, then maybe it would make sense to send whomsoever this person or entity may be an invoice, call this an account receivable or "asset", and simply open Mt. Gox back up. Sure it would be operating on a fractional reserve, but it would actually be more secure than most banks today since it would have a (202K / 850K) * 100 reserve ratio or 23.75% whereas most fiat banks like Citibank, Mizuho and Deutsche all operate on 10% or less reserve.

In other words, why make such a huge fuss about liquidating MTGOX. Nobody gives a second thought to liquidating the TBTF banks. We just keep using them and hoping for the best.

yup... no one ever came up with a good story of exactly what happened. most likely Mark stole them all and it going to wait it out.

even if he has to spend 10 years in prison, in 10 years he comes out a multi billionaire.

What I find really weird is that MAJOR parties are working on finding out what happenened, but still we don't get a good answer. Japanese Police, Kraken, Deloitte, Tohmatsu LLC, ReEx Accounting Firm. I mean come on WTF?

it's SO FUNNY. An unlicensed company(so, I company who run illegally), Kraken, is taking care of others funds. LOL . This the Bitcoin's world.

In what way do you mean unlicensed? That they don't operate in NYC and so haven't applied for a Bitlicense? If so, that's a weak argument.
If other, please clarify your meaning
