http://www.mtgox.com => "Furthermore I would like to kindly ask that people refrain from asking questions to our staff: they have been instructed not to give any response or information"  
Q1: By whom?
Q2: Was he really worried about his staff may otherwise say something or answering questions and believing ppl would stop inquiring if he asked not to?

Boy, was he really that stupid or not.   Roll Eyes



1. He said that 2 days ago. But you are right, it is his latest public message.

2. The message is basicaly saying: "Stop hammering my staff with questions they are not allowed to answer. It puts them in an awkward position." It's classic Mark. He won't say anything, but doesn't want you to get the information from someone else. Because it's very likely nobody else knows the whole story.

Imagine you were an employee at Mt.Gox. But you know little about the businness details. And people keep calling you, and asking you about insolvency. You have your hands full finding yourself a new job, but the press keeps bugging you. You have also a signed NDA, and you actually legaly cannot say anything unless you get a court order. Awkward...

That's why that that message from Mark makes perfect sense. It's actualy the only fully honest thing he said in a long while.

3. We know enough. They are completely insolvent. People can expect getting cents to the dollar when/if they liquidate their assets.

As with any in new industry, there are certain bad eggs that need to be weeded out, and that is what we are seeing today. MtGox has confirmed its issues in private discussions with other members of the Bitcoin community sad to say MtGox die.
