Should have sold it when times were good. A little curious on why anyone want to buy the pool at times like this.

I've heard that chances are it won't close. Sounds like there are a few people interested in purchasing it. Otherwise it would sure be disappointing to see BTC Guild go. Sad
The owner of BTCguild has said that he is in talks to have the pool sold and for him to stick around to help with the pool for a number of years. If the talks end up falling through he is going to restart the process of closing the pool and will not consider selling it

What started out as P2P now getting converted to B2C. Now, the regulations will come in place slowly.

Pools are about centralizing mining power anyway... Even descent and honest pools like BTCguild... Fortunately there is p2pool and it's up to the individual miners to decide if they want to use it or not...

That's the way things are. Everything is impermanent. We just go round and round.

Sorry to see them go. Who'd have though anonymity would become an issue on the internet...

Nothing lasts forever. We just need to adjust in the best possible way to the new opportunities. But I would like thank US government - great job with all those online regulations. We need more laws and taxes after all.

Wow, is it really the mining farms getting on the bitcoin economy? What started out as P2P now getting converted to B2C. Now, the regulations will come in place slowly.
