I (for one) am already deep in the habit of using Tradehill -- but, like many people, I have a good chunk of change held hostage about Mt. Gox.

So we can't just shake the dust off our feet and move on -- just yet.

You can always jump over to tradehill, I think they have double the workers.  I mean if you're comfortable giving your money to four strangers hiding behind a proxy.....

Man all these exchanges are such big jokes.

Nah, I mine Smiley  I think I bought something like 30 bitcoins over the last month.  I don't need to sell them.  Or buy them.  I'm just going to wait until I get paid, send some money over to Dwolla, and wait for the carnage and buy them up on the cheap.

Amateurs. How is that they only realized this NOW 20 minutes before launch.

It's the right call, I'll give them that, but to push to the very edge like this . . . these guys have neither discipline nor a fair take on that thing we call reality.

Yeah, 2 guys should be PLENTY to manually activate 60,000 accounts in 2 days lol.

Fucking assholes.  Seriously I skipped out on a dinner for this.  They could have announced this hours ago.

+1. It's 4:50 am here. Didn't sleep. Gotta get out to work in a couple of hours. Ouch.

And here's some copypasta from off their site:

Quote
[Update June 24 - 02:39 GMT]

We're seeing that the amount of claims that need review is much higher than what we had anticipated, and consequently it is taking us considerably more time to process the claims.

We want to be as accurate as possible when approving claim forms to ensure accounts are issued back to the original account holders, so we humbly ask for continued patience while we work through the outstanding claims. If we were to stick to the launch time of 3:00 GMT the majority of accounts will still not have access to Mt.Gox at the reopening.  We want to ensure as many users as possible have equal access when we are ready to open the site again.

Email confirmation and rejections have started going out. If you received a "rejection" email, please go through the claim process again  at claim.mtgox.com and add additional account information such as the account numbers of the services you used to deposit along with the amounts.

We understand many of you are eager to get access to your account, and we are doing our best to ensure this happens as quickly and with as much confidence as possible.

Thank you for your patience and understandinge look forward to getting through the claims and continue trading as soon as possible.
