Ooh. A new challenger enters.

Do you believe everything Mark "falsifying data to inflate Mt. Gox’s holdings by $33.5 million" Karpeles tells you?

Do you trust his expertise gained from years of running an amateur-hour-shitshow-exchange so easily hacked?

Yes. Not only do I believe every Mark Karpeles has ever said, I believe everything that has ever been written on the internet as a general rule of thumb.  Roll Eyes

Ok but really: let's delve a bit into the situation, just for fun.

The address in question: 1FeexV6bAHb8ybZjqQMjJrcCrHGW9sb6uF

has been the subject of much scrutiny for several years.

It was noticeably mentioned in a court document in a lawsuit by Jed McCaleb:

https://www.reddit.com/r/mtgoxinsolvency/comments/7q9kar/i_found_79k_of_stolen_mtgox_coins/

The address was empty prior to its receipt of the stolen GOX coins. The transaction took place on March 1st, 2011:

It was mentioned in the chat log between Karpeles and McCaleb on the day that the attack happened, waaay before Wright claimed ownership of it.

What's more likely? Karpeles was lying to McCaleb, who never questioned his findings, or that Faketoshi got caught in yet another lie?
