Is anyone on board to look into situations where we can go after PKF Liquidators? 

In a couple weeks I am going to have a chance to talk to a lawyer that is employed by a broker-dealer in USA and ask him/her if we have any recourse to go after them for essentially being incompetent in handling the situation.

I am going to bring the "reports" that they sent us, along with any more relevant information I can think of.  If anyone is  interested, please send me a PM here and your public key so we can talk.  I do not believe that they will charge me anything just to talk to them from what I gather, but I wanted to have all the information clearly available and a clear timeline in hand.

Thanks-

Spending the 100k+ in almost 2 years isn't that bad in value but thanks for the laugh

..and what did they accomplish in those 2 years?  They answered a few emails?  Wrote a couple "reports"?  Is that really worth $100k??

This is news. Would this involve running the exchange to pay back their debts something bitfloor did?

Mt. Gox may have been bankrupt for a long time for over a year some people claim.  If they where not bankrupt the coins they owed bitcoinica would have surely made them bankrupt. Which explains there excuses and delays.

But doesn't explain why pkf liquidators are such pieces of shit.

It's too bad MtGox wasn't located in New Zealand.  They could have used the same liquidation firm  Tongue

Had the liquidator actually done what they were supposed to do with all the money they were handed, the Gox collapse could have been uncovered a long time ago. The value of the lost coins would have been lower, Karpeles would be in jail and the community and market would have healed by now. Instead we're left with no money, bigger losses and Karpeles will likely continue goxxing us during the aftermath by providing bad bitcoin publicity.

Correct.  I say we need to go after PKF for not doing their fiduciary? duty to clients.  They just sat there and collected money.

It's looking fairly likely that MtGox knew they were insolvent and that explains why we never got refunded.  Makes a lot more sense than an argument over being able to identify whose account it was.  Or maybe we were just caught up in their general lack of accounting.

This really has gotten little press - I was just reading
http://gizmodo.com/the-6-biggest-bitcoin-heists-in-history-1531881137
and they fail to mention bitcoinica at all...

Well there goes my dreams with mtgox.

What is exactly going on? I have a claim with the liquidator but I have not been involved more than that. How does the lawsuit (is there a lawsuit?) affect people not directly involved with it who have lost money in bitcoinica?
