What bugs me even more is that they are still promoting their MtGox Mobile useless app, when it doesn't work on any smartphone that's not running Froyo.
Not a single fucking followup and update.

If I had MtGox stocks, I would have burned them for the good of humanity.

Well lucky for you they're not listed.

I just had a snicker, now I am cool. lol

Why do you think we need "trading exchanges" at all? We really only need money changers like they have on the streets of asia. What advantage to BTC is there to having an "F/X market". You need companies that will do the exchange for people with one exchange a day. Day Traders hurt the future they do not help it.

That's precisely what I am talking about.
We are on the same side.

Yes, I was trying to make a point. I just need a "money window" every now and then. No need to have an "account" like at fidelity. The larger point here is becoming fungible. If you could buy a lot with your bitcoin, you would not run to an exchange to trade it for euro or USD every time it moved. That is where we really need to get to. Even a money window concept takes a lot of capital (but does not require having an exchange to hedge with) in both fiat and BTC. It is like a sports book, when you get too much BTC, you just need to move the spread to get people to do more fiat through you. I wonder if the banks would shut you down though if you had some many wires coming in and leaving.

ask why gox dont disabled the trading api!

do you think they did not see the manipulating bots 0.0101 0.2 ? (against or and?) the high value strukture bids and asks?

Partially agree. But we need more investments, not less.
What we don't need are speculators and bot/algorithmic trading. Not yet.
If bots are the responsible for the DoS, they should know how to fuc*ing prioritize.

They have re-opened but suspended trading and will suspend fees:

From the site banner:

Trading is halted until 2013-04-12 02:00am UTC to allow the market to cooldown following the drop in price. Read more details on the support. Additionally trading fees will not be charged within 48 hours of trading resuming (until 2013-04-14 02:00am UTC).

i watched it the whole time on clark moody .!
everytime they start playing it start to leg,after they sold a batch of small bids to them selfs it turned to red then the api got flooded hard ,the people could not see anything and start panik sell.
the bots shopped the coins for cheap and the leg was gone.
but yesterday they hit it too hard and boom ko.

exchangers shut down your trading api no reserve bids ,real price trend from the chain next to your price.

i think the coin is for use not for play!!

you all know what the players do at the wallstreet and how they fuck us all when the bots play!
dont invite them to play with the coin ,send them back to fx trade .

jeff dont look for big company to introduce the coin to, they will only regulate you.
in the future we will have much better coins dont you think?

hope the investors lost a lot and dont come back ,remember we are the shady underground and we like it like that.

That's me on the left. I'll give you three guesses as to the location and why I was invited to this by the CEO.

JNPR traded on the nasdaq not the NYSE. Why the photo?

JNPR also went public in June (on the NASDAQ, not on the big board), not in october. So, I ask again, what is the meaning of the photo?

His CEO made him be at NYSE instead of NASDAQ when JNPR went public, to make sure he wouldn't ruin the event. They took the photo and everything to make it look authentic. That's my guess.

Maybe my ability to read into what is written is impaired.

Where in the post in question did the poster claim Juniper was listed on the NYSE?

Is it just me or did the poster claim that the NYSE now runs on a Juniper network?

I could have missed something so please let me know.

The NYSE network runs on Juniper. That was the day they announced the new NYSE algo trading network built on Juniper. It offers micro-second latency for trading.

I'm just sick of everyone who says MTGOX are idiots being accused of not knowing what they're talking about.

Not all of us are 18 yr old redditors who just found out how to use the web.

No, not all of us. But all of them, see?

Notice how btc-e has been running on 50% gox volume the last couple hours without having "success"?

They're unsuccessfully successful.

Thread backfire? Calling it anything of what happened yesterday a success may fool the dolts of this forum but anyone with half a brain is only further infuriated by your word-smith attempts. You are incompetent to be the number one exchange of Bitcoin and your successor can not come soon enough!

You are obviously no ideas of what you are talking about, come and work with us you will see how things are done and what we have to deal with on a daily basis. As I write this we have two concurrent DDoS attack with NO lags and still online. Things always seems easy at the other end of the keyboard.

This really takes the price for EPIC FAIL followed by tone deaf attack on your own customers.

Wow, just wow!

Since you decided anyone calling your bullshit with you doesn't know how hard it is on your end of the keyboard, I'll offer you this:

That's me on the left. I'll give you three guesses as to the location and why I was invited to this by the CEO.

So as someone who does know what they're talking about, SCREW YOU Alex and your company. First you fail, then you insult your customers for having the audacity to call you on your BS.

Everyone reading this: Open an account on bitfloor, campbx, btc-e or any (ALL) of the other exchanges. Close your MTGOX account.

Well, to be fair. After the hack fiasco (and terrible PR), the reactive measures were good.
They were the first using Yubikeys, and ended up being the first implementing OTR.

I would like to believe that they will implement some measures to avoid lags again.
BUT what I still hate is:

1) How they bullshit in their announcements.
2) How they don't give a shit in taking preventative measures. They rather fixing when it blows, instead of having the foresight of preventing it first.

I can even be lenient if this was happening in the small bitcoin community, but now you guys are getting into the major leagues.
You guys are going to be representing how reliable are bitcoins to the outside world with this deal with CoinLabs, and what you have to offer right now is plainly unacceptable.
