Former CEO of collapsed Mt.Gox bitcoin exchange arrested in Japan: reports

Is Reuters lying about this ?
I have never trusted this Zio news agency anyhow its full of Zio agenda.
They have  network of Zio like reporters who distort the truth to fleece the sheep which is you  Grin and I mean that in all honesty.

What you read in western main stream media is 99% LIES wake up brothers.

This false news is flying around the Globe. Some people intentionally promote this news to damage BTC reputation.

I think by creating troll threads like this some peopel are dumb enough to actually thing Mark Karpeles is the inventor of Bitcoin. I saw it on some "serious" newspaper already.

Where can I apply for the Bitcoin CEO job when the blockchain got hacked? I am confused now....

Not sure I'd want the job. According to the media,  the last Bitcoin CEO committed suicide last year. And the one before that is missing (Satoshi). And now this one is in jail. So anyone who wants to be Bitcoin CEO now had best be careful.  Cool

So, in short, the Bitcoin CEO first went missing, then he committed suicide and now he is in jail. Cheesy

Well the good news is that the CEO post is vacant. Anyone interested can apply to Bitcoin inc.

The post does not exist anymore, because blockchain has been hacked. Cheesy

The mainstream media has so much to talk about bitcoin this week Wink
Mainstream media appears to have changed their mind regarding bitcoin. Last year and earlier this year they couldn't resist bashing the technology and promoting its flaws.
Nowadays I only find positive articles about bitcoin from mainstream media including BBC, Wall Street Journal, NASDAQ, Yahoo etc.

I'm always saddened when I talk to Americans (same elsewhere but I mention Americans coz I always expect more sense from them), and find that their mind set has been created by what the main stream media says. Current forum members excepted of course Smiley

i laughed a lot when i read bitcoin CEO i was like whatttt ? common does people still think that way ?

Yes. They do. Bitcoin is still a mysterious object to most people on this earth. A few days ago I brought up the topic of bitcoin informally in a social gathering. One guy stood up and said "I'm not going to submit my financial details to any central authority. Any digital data is under vigilance. So, bitcoin should be avoided at any cost."

Who the hell is the Bitcoin CEO and what blockchain in particular? Blockchain.info or the block chain ledger?

I think OP was just trying to be ironic... Grin

Well, he has 307 activity on a Sr Member account, I would hope that he doesn't think Bitcoin has an actual CEO at this point. I think some people here still think Satoshi is the CEO of Bitcoin or something along the lines.

What about if he really think that Bitcoin has a CEO..have many activity doesn't mean that he know everything about bitcoin

Nopes... sorry. I dont think Bitcoin has a CEO. I only think Bitcoin has a Hitler, named Mike Hearn. Hence, everyone should stay away from XT. Otherwise this Hitler will turn into CEO. Wink

It's just how they write headlines
They want non bitcoiners to read the article so they truncate all the info into a "grabber" soundbite

Yeah, non-bitcoin users will simply register these words "BITCOIN - ARRESTED - HACKED" not knowing what the "blockchain" mean something else and we don't have a CEO. That's modern day journalism. Although it's not accurate, this could be bad publicity for Bitcoin. All new users could see is a big red sign saying "Stay Away". I wish there is something more positive coming our way soon.

Edit:
I am glad that MK is finally arrested, he deserves to be put behind bars until he cough up the missing coins.

Mark Karpeles, the former CEO of the collapsed MtGox was arrested in Japan.

Send him down for 99 years.

You can add one more 9 there, then are we about the level for a fair punishment.
Also no visitors and diat should be water and bread.
Read in another thread that they should treat him pretty bad in Jail,
guess it is a really bad idea to go Japan, do some chrimes and scam a lot of people.

Has anything been proven?  I mean this guy doesn't seem smart enough to pull a hiest like this, let alone hide the coins for this long.  Yes he does seem to be hiding somehting, and maybe arresting him for this will lead to more information, but it seems like there are more involved than jsut him.
I still firmly believe MK is not the culprit. It might be Jed or someone else. MK discovered the issue late and first tried desperately to make someone else a CEO. Failing that he probably siphoned some fund to save his own ass. His attitude after the crash does not look like the main conspirator at all. Remember Neo & Bee. They left Cyprus after the scam. MK sat well in Japan and was taking care of his cat. This is so unlikely of a criminal.

Ad maiora!

Karapeles was a CEO of a btc exchange therefore he's a btc CEO just like steve jobs was often called stuff like a "tech boss" jobs was never the boss of any machine, he was a CEO... People still "got it"

The differentiation between the blockchain and blockchain.info should be a little better delineated tho

Anyways... That's for the confused noobs

OP... Thanks for my morning kek
