I really don't know what to make of this. To the best of my knowledge the founders of Mt.Gox are already incredibly rich due to being early adopters of Bitcoin. I just don't understand why they would rob people when they're already rich. But at the same time, if they are innocent, how in the hell do you just "find" a wallet with 200k coins.

Good point! Mind boggling the development of this story!

Oops I forgot I had $115 Million dollars in an old wallet. Really?? Does common sense tell you that one can just forget that large amount. He should be brought up criminal charges and put away for life in a cell right next to Madoff.

Common sense says he is indeed a criminal, but...
Is he acting alone or part of a team?

It became very obvious now. I think a slight anal probe will make Fat Marky cough up the rest of bitcoins.

Crazy article especially to think the man who's been arrested for computer crimes before was handling what was the biggest exchange.

Too right....

One does not simply LOSE what at one time was over $200 Million+ dollars of Bitcoin and "suddenly" discover it later when the heat is on...

Is there any proof that mtgox had a total of 850k btc in hot and cold storage? I do not consider the hacked mtgox data as a proof here because the data could have been modified in order to present a larger total (btc or fiat) balance. I believe that any information is leaked is in purpose and MK is responsible for the leaks.

More the amount of btc or fiat that Mtgox claims as lost, less the percentage that Karpeles pays back to gox customers.

Good point, no doubt.

That s why the fat bastard must be squeezed until no one else complains he owes any fiat or BTC, until no satoshi drops out from his ass hole. It is very easy for Fuckarpeles to take 1000 from someone, say "I owe 1 million" and pay them 0.001 to quit the debt.

this is like seeing you're about to get pinched for shoplifting
by the security guards at the exit of the mall
and you "suddenly remember" you have merchandise in your pocket
that you didn't pay for.

Hahaha, so true!

They're probably going to make a excuse that they can't give it out because they don't know who's it is or something.

Everyone look around your house! Look under the sofa and in your junk drawer, the rest of those coins must be here somewhere.

Looks like someone realized his scam wouldn't work and quickly "coughed up" the private keys.

My thoughts exactly.

Get ready for a "refund and release" document that you will have to sign to have that 25% back.

Karpeles' lawyers forgot to arrange for Karpeles to resign from Gox Poland's board of directors on time (negative legal consequences - although unrealized yet - already occured for Karpeles under Polish Commercial Code which is applicable to all board of directors of companies registered in Poland). Polish Commercial Code originates from very harsh communist laws. President of Board can be jailed for defruading as little as USD 1k.

Even if criminal lawsuits against Karpeles fail in vanilla jurisdictions (Japan and USA), there is no fucking way he can escape multi-year jail service in Poland, even if he farts out those 25%. Trust me Japanese and American prisons are nice when compared to Polish ones.

This is great news Poland does not screw around apparently. Glad to be Aus/Pol and a little Italian.

I agree, thanks for the insight. This does me he would have to be extradited to poland tho correct?

Subpeaned to testify in Poland and arrested on spot or just extradited, depending on the findings of Polish prosecutors. From what I know Gox Poland is already being investigated by Polish prosecutors.
