Bitcoinity had a message for a short while saying he was upgrading the server hardware to handle the extra load. He now seems to have a second server up under the subdomain s2.
I've looked a bitcoincharts also for the volume today and it doesn't match up. Looks like a initial sell off of (iirc) 6K btc triggered the crash. In past months before this huge runup, I've seen 20-30K dumps in a hour, and the price just take a while (day or so) or some buy back in the next hour, to make the market price recover. Mtgox's new and improved ticker chart(sarcasm), doesn't give volumes and time ranges like the older one. I would really like to know what is up with the loss of the nice ticker chart and the constant inability to load mtgoxlive.
Topic: "maintenance" eh...lol (Read 899 times)
MtGox API was down temporarily. I think that's a contributing factor.
Bitcoin charts back. Bitcoinity still down.
Maybe they finally realized they need to move the non trading parts of the site to a distributed service like CloudFlare.
