Why would anyone buy Gox? We're heading for liquidation, selling everything, followed by repayments to customers in the class action (of a small percentage of amount owed), and a criminal suit for Mark, for fraud, trading while insolvent, and operating as an unlicensed bank.

The brand is quite frankly so toxic that I don't believe it has any value.

If only it would be possible to buy them without the liabilities. Smiley

Once liquidators come in, I am sure a lot of people will make offers for the source code and/or domain name

Why they will even take backups on image folder lol.

It's MtGox. Does anything they do still surprise people?

That is a sure fire signal that a file called insolvency-Announcement.backup exists on the mtgox servers.

No it isn't. It just means that everything with the .backup extension is being restricted.

Try: https://www.mtgox.com/img/pdf/Rannasha_is_awesome.backup -- you'll get the same Access Denied error. While https://www.mtgox.com/img/pdf/Rannasha_is_awesome.pdf gives a regular not-found-error.

There is also this, less promising, evidence:

EDIT: Please excuse me posting this. It is a hoax I fell for.

Then of course there's some fun:

https://www.mtgox.com/img/pdf/insolvency-Announcement.backup

Now what is that you may ask?

Well ... notice it doesn't give a 404 error?

Click on this to see what it looks like if it doesn't exist:

I think the sourcecode is just put there by Mark to buy more time. Smoke and mirrors my friends... There were many days when we saw poor performance on stage from this guy's part. For how long you'll still believe it's MAGIC? It's a scam.

Could be, but someone is working to put something on the front page at some point. Every now and then a bunch of extra code shows up in the source, and then disappears shortly after. It's not "abandoned" at this point.

If they were trying to rush through a takeover at this point, it would explain the radio silence until all the signatures are in place. It could be a decoy of course, but to what purpose? Buying time at this point is fairly meaningless at this point. That said, putting a comment in the source suggesting a takeover makes no sense. It's entirely unnecessary so most likely it was put there for a purpose. The circulated "internal" document is an obvious fake imo, and nothing from there should be taken into account when trying to explain current events.

What would be the motivation for the acquiring company to take on a crapload of debt/liabilities instead of just writing their own exchange and starting new?

Hundreds of thousands of customer accounts really counts for something as there is no big rush of people trying to get into Bitcoin at the moment making it difficult to build volume on new exchanges - and a good percentage of these customers are rich people who just want to get back to trading.

Turning Gox around would bring a massive amount of credibility and attention to the acquirer.

I admit to having a vested interest in Gox coming back from the grave but seriously, the flipside of a broken company like this can be serious profits if new management get it right. Happens often in the world of business.

BTW I don't believe the crisis document, the HTML, or any of this new material that has come to light over the past 24 hours.

Exactly! and taking on a load of potential lawsuits too...
Nobody would acquire Gox at any price.

Flush your DNS mate or visit that link by any proxy,vpn.

Ps: Looks like some Billionaire or Chinese exchange has acquired mtgox.
