Re: why MtGox (in)solvency cannot be calculated from the blockchain?

there is no way they double sent coins to the tune of  ~740,000 bitcoins.   Once Customer Service  gets a few thousand emails about resending coins they'd sure check to see what is up.  Why would a company allow deposits and not withdrawals in it's waning hours, they knew the ship was sinking and they kept taking more passengers.  It's exactly how Full Tilt, Ultimate Bet, and 50 other online sites did in their last hours.  The thing is these other companies used those deposits and user balances to pay themselves hefty salaries and operational expenses.  740,000 bitcoins is a ridiculous amount of money, if they were shady they'd only need a fraction of that for salaries or operational expenses.  

It's speculation but to me one of the ways someone can lose that much is if they are some how gambling/trading with user balances.  Once he/they got in a hole and tried to gamble/trade himself out of it he couldn't stop.

Re: Mt.Gox SCAM? $38million disappeared. Large sums affected.

I said this in another thread, but I have a bad feeling that the people at Gox have been using user's funds for themselves and only processing withdraws when there are sufficient new deposits. It was working before because such huge sums of money kept getting deposited, but its starting to pile up. Seems like it could be exactly what Ultimate Bet was doing with online poker player funds. I could be completely wrong, but something is definitely up. Claiming the site was hacked would be an easy out at first..

same thing happened at Full Tilt Poker.  They paid themselves with user deposits.  Definitely not hacked

I would not think it's ok even if you get your withdrawal.  I had no problems with them before this.  If you have a large number on btc-e.com you can't trust them with it.  If something happens you're screwed.

Re: New Mt Gox Press Release - Feb 10 - they are claiming flaw in bitcoin protocol !

I send PM to Vircurex Smiley

asking them would they do something before they get attacked.

Let see what is going to be in reply Smiley
I will post it later if they answer

Good luck I sent btc from btc-e to vircurex on Monday.  The problem is surely on btc-e end but I've got some other deposits to vircurex that are showing as 0/4 confirmations sent about 10 emails and not one response in 5 days.  Another one of my favorite exchanges that I've now lost complete trust in.  How can people trust these exchanges with millions of dollars when they can't even return an email, have no phone number, their physical address does not exist etc.

btc-e.com don't be another mtgox and scam people or at least act like a company that knows how to deal with millions in assets.  How are traders going to trust you with thousands of dollars.  BTC-E.com looks it's being run out of someone's basement.  Used to think highly of this exchange but I'll be doing all my trading some place from now on.  I say the traders vote with their coins and leave for another exchange.

I think people with problems probably all withdrew on the 2-10 or 2-11-2014.  For me it's looking like btc-e.com steals coins.

18 btc gone.  Surely something to do with DDOS attack.  btc-e sent them and they were instantly stolen from my KryptoKit wallet.  No idea how.  I've been in contact with the devs.  They're calling me today to talk about it.  Reddit post here:

http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1xu9sk/18_bitcoins_stolen_from_my_kryptokit_wallet/
You sure your mac isnt infected or email/passwords compromised?
I'm not having any other issues.  I'm in the process of cleaning everything up, changing passwords, encrypting wallets, etc.  It's very frustrating.  18 bitcoins gone "poof."  wtf!

sorry, I'm having the same problems they said they sent bitcoin but it was never received I'm starting to get annoyed that btc-e.com is stealing bitcoins.

Re: Bter withdrawal without transaction

So what do you do, and how long have you been waiting?

I had many delayed withdrawals before, but after they were processed I could always find the transaction at blockchain so I knew they were sent. Now with no transaction they seem like they have disappeared.

Not showing up on blockchain for me either, keep emailing them.  If I don't get it back I have a coworker who does seo and only thing I can do is make sure everyone knows bter steals bitcoins.

Because it is NOT going to the moon! Not anytime soon, not even later...Because? The market is being manipulated, just like LTC and BTC. Just take a look at the huge sell walls on Cryptsy, from 270 and up, every 2-3 cents up, there is a huge wall. All there just to keep the price from rising. All miners are being played, all daytraders are being played. I am stunned that no one wants to believe that.

Just recap on recent events, Doge being pulled of Cryptsy a couple of times, the drop the last couple of hours to 245, only for the whales (Chinese) to get 10% profit over you backs in the last 3-4 hours. And it is NOT moving past 300. Seriously...

looks like it to me.

Re: R.I.P. Gox 13/02/2014

Depends on what if Mark have the same R.I.P definition as you do....

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=464465.0 I'm sure he doesnt mind being R.I.P


It's funny you mention this, because I started this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=459059.msg5066383#msg5066383

Edit: Does anyone know how feasible it would be to determine if coins are being sent to exchanges from addresses known to be owned primarily by Mt. Gox?  

I simply dont buy the "delay" in fiat withdrawal at all... never did. I think its simply so they can attract noobs who want to sell btc at higher imaginary price.

I also believe Marks friends and associates have no problem doing arbitrage trading while moving fiat in and out of the exchange without any delays.

This BTC withdrawal issue is an easy way for Marks to reverse the market and continue the same inside trading.

Yes we have issues with tx mutability but most of the invalid tx from Gox is due to their incompetent system made DER tx which is nonstandard to most nodes. Hence open an easy way for the attacker

I agree unfortunately the exchange needs to be regulated or this type of thing will happen.  If you did this type of stuff in the regular markets and this blatantly you'd go to jail.  To me it's fairly obvious they are doing some underhanded activities.
