Topic: MtGox withdrawal delays [Gathering] - page 38. (Read 908602 times)

Pretty much nothing, the way I see it. And nobody's seems to be in hurry from the Japan investigator's part.

i totally disagree with you because since there is:

No police investigation results
No comments from Kobayashi about that


...and i have many more to tell you.

 Imagine what would happen if the court along with the police have found all the mising coins but the domain is sold....
Assets of the company would have gone away....

All the actions must take place AFTER final word of court and police investigation.



EDIT: the further reading link is part of the past... and we all know what happened....
What we need is news on what is happening NOW

First of, I think that it's not a bad thing for MK to sell this domain. As he stated back in July:

(1)

The fact that lead the auction to a halt was nothing but CoinLab – which agreed to support Mt. Gox’s bankruptcy plan – moved to prevent the sale back then (2)

Now, there's always the chance Coinlab has risen their objections on the sale, maybe primarily due to the fact they saw from the auction course that there's a significant amount to be acquired, secondly, because their objection lead to nothing useful to the people who lost their assets from the Mt. Gox. I foresee that the 200K btc plus some extra cash will make a lot of people STFU and don't force their hands towards either Tibbane or MK.

Thanks OhShei8e!

This is an important effort for the entire cryptocurrency community. Without knowing what happened at MtGox, and without doing our best to have MtGox depositors reimbursed, trust in exchanges and cryptocurrency will be mild at best. If we want cryptocurrency to become ubiquitous, we, the early adopters, must protect it.

Please do not pass judgement until the truth is known. There is no good reason why Japanese authorities and the administrator shouldn't release the "Last Known Bitcoin Addresses" that held MtGox deposits. Same with FIAT.

We are in uncharted waters. There is no law or enforcement authority that can handle this like we can as a community. Any help is welcomed!

Most likely, the police will not go public until they (a) identify the criminal, try to arrest him, and are ready to file charges; or (b) decide that they cannot solve the case, and archive it.

Think of how long it took for the FBI to come open on their investigation of Charlie Shrem and Ross Ulbricht. 

because we dont see our bitcoins
NEVER 

after so many months why no response from Tokyo Police? what are the investigation results? why no updates on mtgox.com from Kobayashi?

Japanese toilets have auto-clean warm water jets. So no problem, at least not for him. 

or Sunlot, after taking over, could just as easily claim the problem was bigger than they thought & arrange to wind the company up. As according to the equity split at that time they would then walk away with the majority of 200,000btc (against their investment of 1btc). I don't trust Kobayashi even to wipe his ass after he goes to the toilet so I can easily see him "overlooking" adequate safeguards as would prevent this kind of thing from happening.

So the Canadian victims too agreed with the Sunlot plan? All of them?

IMHO, if the Japanese court agrees to turn MtGOX over to Sunlot, you can expect that the management of MtGOX will walk away free and keep all that they got, that Sunlot will distribute some part of the remaining 200'000 BTC to the victims (after taking their cut),  that there will be no criminal investigation, and that the new MtGOX will flop so those 16.5% equity will be worthless.

what can we expect from this?

it would be interesting to back track btcs are dumping on okcoin to check are they origin from mtgox or not.

Some reading material (it really starts from about page 25):

http://k.lenz.name/LB/?p=10916

There are too many people that have a significant interest in this case, and the Bitcoin value doesn't disappear, it just transfers. Mark Karpeles, Nobuaki Kobayashi, and probably others have key pieces of information that can easily be made public:

1) The total Bitcoin and fiat lost
2) The destination addresses (in the case of Bitcoin) and SWIFT accounts (in the case of fiat) where the cash and assets were pulled (or transferred)

Any government official that has the authority to enforce the release of this information and fails to do so will fall into great public scrutiny and I think not fair well as it only hurts the Japanese economy. I just don't think that the Japanese society will allow this to be brushed under the table. Too many eyes are watching worldwide, and if Bitcoin becomes a world currency and it's value strengthens, then the actions today will be further scrutinized in five or ten years.

Nazi war criminals from WWII are still being chased today:

As much as many Bitcoin fans would like to see the MtGox issue go away, anything short of the truth will only damage its reputation amongst the very core people that helped it get to where it is now.

Sound familiar?. (Hint: In the news article below, substitute the word "hackers" for "suppliers", "depositors" for "people/workers/staff", "bitcoins" for "jobs", and "Mt. Gox" for "Phones4U".)

Your theory makes a lot of sense to me, yet there must have been more to it such as the seemingly synchronized negative PR campaign against bitcoin timed with the closure of Mt. Gox, the DDoS and transaction malleability hacking attacks in late February on it and other exchanges, as well as beforehand the rather dubious behaviour of the company's banks in slowing down its deposits in order to create an artificial cash squeeze.

The ultimate purpose of all these coordinated actions may have been to create a situation for the company wherein a takeover would be the only possible remedy. Liquidation may be a good way to prevent a takeover, yet it will also be very difficult for customers to have to wait so long and settle for so much less than they had there on deposit. That's why I would favour a simple and quick out-of-court settlement instead of a protracted liquidation. However, a takeover seems like the worst of both worlds, and should, if possible, be avoided.

PS.  My favorite theory of what happened at MtGOX is that the missing coins were bought at MtGOX by one or more people, through normal trading but with non-existing money (that is, with credit created by the exchange from thin air) and sold in China, during or after the April 2013 bubble.  But those people then defaulted on the credit, by accident or by plan; the proceeds of the sales in China were somehow lost or pocketed, and MtGOX was left without coins and without money. 

If this theory is correct, the scam probably was known and/or helped by many people besides MtGOX's management -- perhaps some of the largest clients, some friends of the management, some Chinese exchange owners, some intermediaries with business connections in China and/or Japan, ...  And those people would naturally try by all means to stop the liquidation and any investigation of the theft ...

Please folks, what you think is fair and what you would like to happen is TOTALLY IRRELEVANT at this point.  You should GET A LAWYER competent in Japanese bankruptcy law and ask him what is likely to happen and what choices you have, if any.

I don't understand you folks.  You were royally screwed by a couple of sleazy bitcoin entrepreneurs.  Now you want to take the little that is left of your money from the hands of the law -- which WILL return most of it to you, as fairly as possible -- and give it to other sleazy bitcoin entrepreneurs -- which will probably be the same guys who scammed you, actually.
