"Team America: World Police"

Somebody's got to do it...while the rest of the world rides the fence and begs the US for handouts.  Everybody "hates" America but you all love our mighty dollar.

I'm not sure what you mean, but maybe you should read "John Perkins - Confessions of an economic hitman" regarding the "handouts".

Good book.  Shock some people here know how to read books.

Or better yet, check out the zeitgeist film series, featuring John Perkins and others.

Don't know if that's "better", it's completely different. John Perkins mostly describes things that happened in the past from his own perspective of taking part in it (so one can understand it better). Zeitgeist is an idea for a solution of generally related problems if I'm not mistaken.

Also the "spin" is a lot different. There will be large groups of people who can take Perkins seriously but will have their problems with Peter Joseph.

MtGox appears to be under severe DDoS attack, the trade engine lag is 5 minutes now. Or something happened to their servers.
Make that 11 minutes, then back to normal.

Assuming that the recent rise is partly from people desperate for fiat and buying coins to dump on Bitstamp I thought I would check MtGox's facebook page for any clues that they are actually starting to clear the wire backlog.

This from yesterday shows no improvement:

"Alexandra Sokolova   Not kidding, they are dicking me and many other around. I know someone who decided to cash out in 130k April, and wire transfer in seperate transactions thoughout late April and early May, they proccessed some of the smaller ones but all the larger ones are still pending 3 months later."

It is really hard to take part in a rally (I have yet not) when one thinks that the rally is partly driven by people just wanting to move cash off Gox.
First we had a 2 week wait and then at the end of that wait, "things are working but it will take another couple of weeks to get caught up". When is that next 2 week period? (Either this or next week - someone?)

Gox - $95
Stamp - $87

Not only does the US hand out less per capita than many other countries but please watch this short video on how generous these hand outs really are.  (@ 2:20)

They've been doing their best to contribute to a FUD environment and stunt Bitcoin's growth by scaring off investors for a while now. Not that I'm surprised given the deflating bubble.

It gives them time to get their software and processes in order.
If MtGox's decline continues at this rate, they won't be needing that anymore. Cheesy

This guy said it best:

First everyone ran for Gox and now all people want to get out again. Always everyone at the same time. No patience, but want to make 1000% profit.

All the money was uploaded from January to mid-April and it will take at least several month to download it again. There is no Dwolla, no OKPAY, no more Liberty Reserve.

Didn't MtGox say they were hiring a comms person a few months ago?

WTF do they do? I know customers can be annoying, but at the very least, responding to posts on a public Facebook page should be a priority, even if you have nothing to report.  What is it with Bitcoin businesses thinking they are immune to basic customer service?

Even if they just constantly repeat "Unfortunately our withdrawal demand is far in excess of capacity, and some larger withdrawals are required to be held for compliance purposes. Unfortunately we cannot give any more information at this time.", it's better than just leaving posts to rot.

LOL I hope you're trolling for laughs.

Or do you actually believe that crap, and while you're at it, do you buy advertised "brand name" products and vote for a political party that spends more on some goofy military crap than on important things like public healthcare? Isn't propaganda a wonderful thing?

China obviously loves the "mighty" greenback. Wait until they call their loans.

LOL


That's the beauty of loans...you don't have to pay them back.   Grin
