off-topic, about Gox and all the BS going around, I find it unbelievable when early adopters Like Roger and Erik and everyone else asking people to just forget their money and move on..... yea you can move on, you have millions already so what if you lost few thousands, try convince this guy who lost +4700BTC
I feel for the people that had funds at MtGox, and I think it is important to be sympathetic to these victims.
But what is wrong with learning from the experience and moving on? Do you have a better option?
yes bring justice and tell us what really happened and prove it then try to resolve it with all what you can, when all this fail then people will try and only start trying to move on.
do you know what happened in gox ? I think no right ? then why to move on?
I went to breakfast, and came back and see that many people misunderstood what I meant by "learning from the [MtGox] experience and moving on."
I think most community members, myself included, want to figure out what happened. How else can we learn from the experience on move on? And I think most community members want a criminal investigation of MtGox too. In fact, I believe it was the large players in the bitcoin world (Coinbase, Blockchain, SecondMarket, etc) that contacted the FBI to report evidence of criminal behaviour at MtGox. If MtGox is found guilty of a fraud that wiped out half a billion dollars and hurt many people, then those responsible should suffer the consequences.
Furthermore, the purpose of a bankruptcy proceeding is to recoup as much funds as possible to payback the creditors (Gox depositors), so we are already working on salvaging as much as possible [although there may not be much to salvage, if my theory is correct].
So I don't understand how the people that are arguing with me are saying anything different than what I'm saying.
Here is what I think actually happened, by the way:
