What are the odds that we stay over 500 the next 24h?
Pretty good unless there's a goxxing from beyond the grave.
But what news from Mark could be make things worse? The think with the 750 000 lost btc over the years?

So is the consensus now that the bottom is reached and it will only go up? Would you trade in all your other altcoins for BTC right now (while BTC is cheap) or hold them?
There is never a "absolutely yes", unless the guy is lying or stupid. But I think below 400$ it will not go on Stamp. Except there are new news coming and that is always possible...

I hope so, but what has changed? gox if offline and trading is halted, but MK is still there to continue the upfuckery and nobody can get coins or fiat out. Nobody knows shit. Can't believe I'm saying this, but bitcoin is overpriced given what we know.
February 25, 2014, 06:12:22 PM
From the source of that news story it sounds more like government from the way MK is speaking ? The fact he says they're not lost but temporarily unavailable. Also when asked about if a digital currency like bitcoin could exist he said it was hard to say there is a lot of bank and government pressure. Money laundering seizures or something similar ?
he's talking about seizures, problems they've had with banks etc in the past
the coins are gone, 'temporary unavailable' means he hoped he could make it back over time following the crisis strategy

Karpeles denies the document was produced by Mt. Gox, but confirms that it is “more or less” legitimate.
yeah was just about to post that, thought it was pretty obvious by now, but there are still deniers about.
the unnoticed loss of >700,000 BTC just beggars belief...speechless
apparently all his own coins have been lost too as he kept them on gox :/
it's just really really sad, can't believe someone could be so stupid

So lets assume Gox is insolvent to some degree and eventually pays out cents on the dollar to everyone.
It is believed they have lots of fiat in their accounts.
I also assume that if they have a limited number of BTC, people holding BTC in their account will probably be paid mostly in dollars for those BTC (What rate will they use, the closing $175... or the average of all exchanges)
A lot of this fiat will then be transferred to other exchanges and used to buy coins.
This is going to be the mother of all rallys, as 10's or 100's of millions of dollars moves to the other exchanges looking for coins.

i seriously doubt anyone will get any money or coin out of gox for a very very long time (if ever)

Lol people lose 50%+ of their highly speculative investment and the first thing they do is throw more money into it. It is believed they have lots of fiat in their accounts.

I've heard several things on NPR about bitcoin and "Mount Gox." I just want to call them up and tell them they're mispronouncing it. It should be "Mount Jokes"
I pronounce it "Mount Cocksuckers"Potato Potahto
