I don’t know exactly who Eren is or where his information is from, but I hope we discover more soon...

I read the source and it looks pretty weak.
If true:
"It would also turn into a colosso-massive news story. No one has ever ‘found’ a half-billion dollars before. Thanks to the miracle that is trustless, decentralized, public ledgers, though, we did. We did."

Stay tuned for more amazing updates from Bitcoin World...

I don't really get the point: you guys are saying that if the coins will be found, then Bitcoin exchange rate will immediately raise. But how come? 670000 coins are a big deal, at least 100000 of them will be on markets again, hence the exchange rate will sink for a few days. Or I am wrong?

It can only fall, there is no other option. If most people keep the coins the price remains the same, if most sell the price goes to 1 dollar.

Yes the world has a lack of fiat to buy any of those coins.

It seems you don't understand the basica rules of market. The current price is what it is without those coins, how can the price go up? coins will buy coins?


Nobody even knew those coins were missing up until 3 weeks ago and the price was the same.
Finding the coins will have a negligible impact on the market.

I don't see how it can fall.

If I lose something valuable, that I thought was lost maybe forever, and it turns up I'm jumping for f#cking joy.

Sentiment plays a huge role.

Mt. Gox is not going anywhere until the Tokyo District Court and the Tokyo Metropolitan Police are through with it.

Nah, they have only made an application. They can just cancel the application. Court has 0 power if they now come out and say we are being acquired and everyone will be made whole.

Really?
That would be one heck of a story.

It is correct that the Japanese court has not yet ordered commencement of the civil rehabilitation procedure. They have only provided a protective order for Mt. Gox based on their application.

I hope the bitcoin community that was goxed gets some/all their coins back.
Everyone should have learned a very valuable lesson from this whole mess- Hold on to your coins...no need to leave them on exchanges.

Give me a break.  Everyone keeps preaching that shit, but not everyone just hordes coins on their home computers.  Some of us actually trade/sell/arbitrage.  And for that, you need fiat and btc on the exchanges.

I'm thinking the opposite.  If you were a victim of the Goxxing, would you hang on to your returned coins?  I'd think most people would dump them for fiat as quickly as possible.

im victim and i will not sell my refunded goxcoins(if)

I too am a victim, and I will also bee hodling my coins.

Me too, any coins returned to me will be safely stored well away from any exchange.

Damn yeah... if this is true, i will put my 16 goxcoin in cold wallet and wait another year to become 10k!!! with all the news coming to Bitcoin out of this, its not wise to sell them for cheap (maybe we see a drop of 10-20% at first but it will come back soon)
