Re: MtGox blames Bitcoin protocol problem for BTC withdrawal issue
You seem to totally be missing the point here. This does not affect mt gox deposits at all.
Which is exactly what I said 
This is *withdrawals* from mt gox....under their current system they track withdrawals that they sent to users via the transaction hash. Which is apparently a f***** way to track them. So they should track the withdrawals via the input/output/amount instead.
It's impossible that two withdrawals would have the same inputs/outputs; provided that mt gox use change addresses.
How is it impossible?It's impossible that two withdrawals would have the same inputs/outputs; provided that mt gox use change addresses.
MtGox doesn't control the destination address, so that can be the same.
For MtGox to control the origin address it means they would have to spam the blockchain with internal transfers to intermediate addresses (that they could change) for withdrawals, so that a given address is only used once for a given amount in a given time-frame.
