Maybe not thief, just incompetent. No proof, that it was he who stole bitcoins.
You don't just accidentally lose 750k BTC over the course of several years without noticing anything wrong. Mark knew.
I can't seem to find any official press about this. This could be a hoax.
Also Gox.com the website is register by Mark on the 24-2-2014

I had a few people email me today about Gox failing. I think the general sentiment is that whoever put their money into Gox and pretend currencies is an idiot that deserves to be robbed blind by the other idiots that were in control of the pretend money.
Don't lose sleep over your stupid decision to leave money in the hands of Mark Karpeles. We all make bad decisions. I lost 4 btc in Gox. Oh well.

"Mt Gox is bankrupt, and Mark Karpeles is a thief!"
well that is a fact... but question is: whether they will be prosecuted for their actions. I think he should be brought to justice.

To justice? I think nothing will happen.
He cheated me so I haven't a problem to pay the rest of my Coins for his head!
me too... somebody should do something about it, for the satisfaction of all the victims of his robbery. And Im not saying torturing him and anybody else involved slowly and skillfully... Im not saying that..
You have two scenarios:
A team which has only one job, being the middle man in transaction and securing the funds to be blind for several years while money was being stolen by a hack.
or
Mark took stole all the coins and ran away.
This title is correct, and I'll support it anytime.
I'm pretty sure there was no "team". All along it's just been Mark, with his only employees being AML and customer support staff.A team which has only one job, being the middle man in transaction and securing the funds to be blind for several years while money was being stolen by a hack.

What the hell does any of this have to do with their inability to enable withdrawals?
What "situation"? The fact that they lost customer funds?
TRANSLATION: "Hmm let's monitor the fact that we lost people's money and see if the money somehow magically reappears!"
ROFL!

The title is inaccurate no matter what is going on with MtGox, because if anything, MtGox is insolvent, not bankrupt.
Being on the run, i.e. living in fear, is not fun. Not even for an anonymous darknet marketplace admin would it be fun, when the chances of being found are minimal. For Karpeles, if indeed MtGox is insolvent due to theft, it makes more sense to be honest about what happened and declare bankruptcy.
If you're a cockroach...

Man, how do you accidentally lose three-quarter million bitcoins and not notice. It's like sleeping through Hiroshima and not noticing anything different when you wake up.

Maybe not thief, just incompetent. No proof, that it was he who stole bitcoins.
It's really hard to say which scenario is more believable. A team which has only one job, being the middle man in transaction and securing the funds to be blind for several years while money was being stolen by a hack.

Where is Mark now?

I think Mark is still sleeping, dreaming.

So what's the proper term here: Goxed or Zhuo Tonged?
I think there are several words for this."Raped" was the first that came to my mind.
I was worried that people did not see what I wrote, again, thanks.
