A friend of mine was running an international software startup many years ago that had distributor relationships with all of the major country markets worldwide and he found out that the french distributors were scheming to double-cross him behind his back with their own product after a lengthy and supposedly trustful relationship. Nothing wrong with honest competition, but they turned out to be the only dishonest (french) distributor group from all of the various distributor relationships worldwide.

Perhaps the fact that Karpeles is french should not be held against him for this particular unrelated incident. But one cannot overlook the fact that perhaps this "leaked" document is part of a very carefully orchestrated strategy to shift blame away from Mark - thus effectively allowing him to pull off the biggest scam in bitcoin history. He knows that he is viewed as incompetent - which gives him the perfect cover excuse with the general media. Incompetence does not imply the lack of extreme self-serving cunning...

If he is stupid enough to believe that a new reincarnation as "Gox.com" will survive, then anyone stupid enough to deposit funds with the new site (regardless of what the new management team will be) when it launches (supposedly next month) deserves to lose their funds in the future.

Those who do not learn the lessons of history are doomed to repeat it again...

Wow, so the fact that you heard from a friend that a french business did something dishonest once, and because Mark is French, there he must be doing something dishonest. this is incredibly racist. go back to your room.
