Topic: Volumes gone? (Read 5300 times)
Interesting point. Did anyone look for such a transfer(s) in the block chain?
Well, this is sort of good news 
It proves that despite the limited resources, MagicalTux stays on top of things.
I wonder what happens to the $1000 the rightful account owner lost. Will he be reimbursed by MtGox?

It may not be as simple as this, if the maximum transfer is limited to $1000 and the price of bitcoins was down to $0.01, doesn't that mean you can send out 100,000 bitcoins? Which under normal markets would be worth $1M-$2M?
I meant limited human resources 
(one guy...) maybe part of the $300k (or whatever the amount is) can be used for better security?

Will it be refunded or not, depends on details of the huck.
But it is powerfull blow to MtGox rep. I am even thinking about dirty competition trick.
Well, i am always full with shitty ideas.

Limited resources? By my math MagicalTux made ~$300k in the past month.

Finaly - at least some statement.
Well at least this not catastrophic scenario.
Do you think the price will be <12$ when it comes back up? Finaly - at least some statement.
Well at least this not catastrophic scenario.

Maybe Satoshi just unloaded his wallet just to see what happens?
TradeHill seems to be touch and go at the moment as well. Probably just load issues though.
Well, at least we know 
he's working on it.
A couple more incidents like this, and both MtGox and Bitcoin will go down in flames
I wonder how much negative media coverage this incident will get tomorrow...

I don't think anyone has enough btc, legit or stolen, to do this all on their own. Maybe someone had enough to crash through the stop loss prices of some of the bigger algo traders? Mostly just speculation at this point.
Maybe MagicalTux took it down to analyze the situation and prevent future issues (technical/psychological etc.)
Most likely that is what happened IMO.

I placed half a dozen orders between .01 and 13. Naturally, Mt.Gox processes only the buy at 13. 
For 1.2% a trade I expect the infrastructure not to suck quite so bad.
Tommy just sold a half a million Bitcoins!
Looks like Mt.Gox is now down.

Right now, MtGox seems to be down... Was it hacked, is there a rush on account checking or is this a DDos related to the ton of bitcoin that were unloaded earlier?
Why don't you all check your MtGox accounts and report back?
I would but it's down at least for me.

We know some rude guesses on this matter, and no one of this guesses is not anyhow good.
Some of them just catastrophic, other not so catastrophic, but still not pleasant.
Well, lets see how it will be - very bad or just bad.
