Just blech.  The whole thing continues to be irritating.  I was a verified, trusted user, but exited last year.  My holdings are safe, but I'm assuming my information is in a digital pile with everyone else, waiting to be sold to the highest bidder; all the while we have what looks like Mark moving close to 300,000 coins around after declaring bankruptcy.

If the final story culminates in Bitcoin Foundation involvement, shame on me I suppose.

The truth will probably be stranger than anything we can imagine right now. My guess is that the 311k coins that have been moving are still safely under trustee control.

Far more unsettling for MtGox users in general should be the fact that a large portion of blockchain has now been mapped directly to specific users (or can easily be), with ID scans, addresses etc. and full trading histories, balances, etc. The entire data dump was supposedly sold at least once - likely several times - for a paltry 100btc.

The Target card skimming scandal is nothing compared to this.
