People don't forget that the new deadline for filing your claim to gox assets is end of May 2015 and not November 2014
On the subject of claims, I was just reading all over the net that the tokyo police did confirm the illegal removal of only 27000 coins from mtgox.
They also confirmed that they will be investigating what happened to the other 600000 or so.
According to one site, the tokyo police were hinting of the possibility of recovering 544000 coins. Well whatever the outcome is, I for one find it rather strange that 650000 coins could have been illegally removed without management catching on that theft was taking place, unless they did not need to worry because no theft was actually taking place on such a large scale.
Should the police manage to recover a substantial amount of coins, I wonder what the outcome would be if creditors settle for a deal before it is recovered. I'm sure we all would like to see any further coins that are thereafter recovered, be returned to gox's creditors.
What would the price of each coin be if it is recovered? Guess Satoshi knows
Lets wait and see
If Karpeles was the one who controlled all the private keys then I highly doubt that the Tokyo police are going to get any BTC back. Unless he gets formally charged and then cuts a deal and confesses that he still controls all the coins.
In the press conference broadcast on Japanese TV, did Kareples specifically say that all of the BTC was stolen? Has he been quoted saying that at all?
Him happening to find the 200k Bitcoins as soon as people started looking at the blockchin is so suspicious though isn't it.
