That pastebin was taken completely out of context. The user on here who posted it also apologised to gmaxwell on IRC for posting it

As I said earlier on IRC, I did not mean to step on anyone's toes, especially not gmaxwell's. I had no context, since I joined the channel just moments before. I did just mean to provide information and don't have any $/BTC on Gox. Didn't mean to spread FUD/fear and have no agenda, the post was meant to be informative in nature only.

Should there be any relevant context, that changes the perceived meaning, someone please post it.

But the information that was posted, is believed to be true? So whats wrong with the context?

I only provided the log, which is real. I'll leave the drawing of conclusions to others.

Any alleged missing context has to be provided by those who claim that it's missing.

EDIT: I think an interesting question is: What information is actually in there? Many might conclude that it highlights a certain degree of incompetence on Gox's side. It might be a bit more far-fetched to draw conclusions on whether and how many coins have been "lost"/"stolen" from Gox (purely from the log).

EDIT2: E. g. they could have automatically reissued the same transaction as a double-spend (using the same inputs) and not lost anything to this automatic reissuing (I am aware there have been various reports to the contrary (them resending with different inputs), which might or might not be true, I am just commenting on the log). Whether that theory holds ground in light of malleability issues, stuck transactions and other reported inconsistencies is another question altogether. Maybe malleability could still only be exploited (if at all) by complaining to customer service and have them manually resend your coins (again: there are reports claiming otherwise, might be true, might be not). Someone who feels inclined to do so could maybe dig up some more information on what most likely transpires from this log (if anything) from publicly available transaction logs. I only provided the IRC log without any speculation or interpretation.
