This made me remember when we broke 266 on gox/stamp/btc-e last year.

The exchanges were slowly eating their walls until everyone were on no man's land and we quickly rushed to 350.

I think I am getting old for this.

5K Bitcoin bought in the last 11 mins on finex. Someone is entering.

I think this is forced liquidation from people who were shorting btc.

There is more than 10k Btc open on the short side on Bitfinex, will be fun to see them closing their positions to cover losses.

It appear that bitfinex is dealing with some margin calls from the shorts.

We're seeing some really huge dumps getting ravenously gobbled up.  Fascinating stuff.

Sometimes I think our colloquial metaphors have been poorly chosen. Wink




Shorting on times like these feels like eating shit so the metaphor is very accurate.

[12:09] not really
[12:09] maybe just a link? something like that: Why do we fall? - 9GAG
With the 9Gag being an image site that he linked to http://9gag.com/gag/a442vZw taken on face value its just a movie quote, but what if using 9GAG was his attempt to send out a message again, with plausible deniability if called out on it?

Gox being served with a gag order from FBI would actually make sense and also answer the question why so little information has been given out to the "public"

I think the ties between the bust of silk road and Gox is bigger than we might realize.

Dread Pirate Roberts / slik road probably used Gox for trading and held of lot of coin / $ there, leading FBI to take a closer look at Gox and halting operations with US banks and possible locking down the cold wallets to secure any needed proof.

If there is an US gov investigation which is forcing Mark to cooperate they could issue a gag order, that would explain the silence.

That would be extremely interesting, seeing that Mark is a French citizen living in Japan.

Silk Road users could very well use gox to withdraw cash or buy btc on the early years.

This alone is an excuse for an intervention given that Japan is a very cooperative jurisdiction, not farfetched to imagine a cooperation between Karpeles and the US gov given that he has seized assets on US.

If true, that opens an interesting possibility: Mark may actually be trying to protect customer's funds.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=148147.msg1583179#msg1583179

From MagicalTux on bitcointalk:

Someone asked:

back to JPY....a nightmare for the US to try and enforce anything at all or at least quickly and not always on the friendliest terms with regional neighbors

To which, MagicalTux replied:

Japanese government is friendly to US, and also implements things such as FACTA. Also the US government can pressure any bank worldwide by threatening of cutting them off USD. A bank in any country that can not transfer USD anymore is of no use to anyone. US government has been doing this so far to get accounts held by "terrorists" (people linked to North Korea, mafia, actual terrorists, etc) and while Bitcoin is still too small to get this kind of response, it's a good idea to stay friendly with the US govt. at this point and let Bitcoin grow and gain in legitimacy.

Once again shows his willingness and desire to cooperate with the US Gov.

I'm still missing in the IRC logs where they discuss a 550,000 BTC proof move transaction... or a link between the addresses with money in them and the 424K proof transaction..... can you clarify?

I verified the first address which is one of the two addresses that received the first 50k bitcoins.

Best regards,
ilpirata79

Yes, I know that 1P3S1grZYmcqYDuaEDVDYobJ5Fx85E9fE9 received the first 50,000 of the 29a3efd3ef04f9153d47a990bd7b048a4b2d213daaa5fb8ed670fb85f13bdbcf transaction... but what links the 29a3efd3ef04f9153d47a990bd7b048a4b2d213daaa5fb8ed670fb85f13bdbcf transaction back to mtgox? I don't see any logs about a 550K BTC transaction, just the 424K one.

Maybe there is another issues we aren't grasping, he is constantly saying about other parties involved.

If there is an US gov investigation which is forcing Mark to cooperate they could issue a gag order, that would explain the silence.

Also depending on where is the cold storage the authorities could very well restrict Karpeles from using them.

It is just thoughts but it would add a little bit of reality on the matter, because it is impossible to lose so much on theft, and nobody stay so quiet while the business you are working so hard crumble to pieces.

What is not being said is what matter the most.

This is an IRC conversation on 2011 when people asked Mark Karpeles to prove if he owned the coins on his exchange.

Its becoming more and more clear that they wasn't robbed but have somehow lost control of the private keys.
