Anyone have an opinion on this?  Someone on reddit claims to have linked the 2011 Gox reserves confirmation transactions to addresses currently holding 200,000BTC

It has been a theory the recent days that they cant access their cold wallets.

Yeah, I've been following that idea as well. This is the first evidence I've seen which might support that hypothesis, but wondered if there is something I'm overlooking.
One of the links on the reddit post leads to a page with a "Magical Tax" instead of Tux, so I wondered if it was faked or something

For sure we are overlooking many things... but this is more consistent and reasonable than the recent "leaked" documents and rumours. Those addresses are full of bitcoins, and the date of the latest transfers suggest a high chance that they belong to mtgox deep cold wallets.

Anyone else have EVER reported such high ammount of bitcoins to be lost?
