From Gox latest press release today, I remember reading a paraphrase of the following from 2 individuals, in the know....
"......the changes required for addressing this issue will be positive over the long term for the whole community."

It would be 'convenient', but could it be related, is what springs to mind.

While I remember that Ukyo said that the solution would affect the price of bitcoin I can't seem to find that quote..

I did find a quote from Danny:

The solution will enable Neo & Bee and all of those involved in Bitcoin to benefit greatly in the future.

If Ukyo's issue is the same as gox's it could explain why the coins are gone and why he can't talk about it, since it is probably best to keep an exploit like that secret until resolved. But IF that is the case then Ukyo should probably be able to talk about it now that gox has spilled the beans.

EDIT: I just remembered something Ukyo seemed to mention on IRC by mistake.. After a bit of digging in my IRC logs I found this from December 17:

Code: (#weex)

I neglected it at the time but it seems quite relevant now.
