Gox will be releasing a statement later today regarding btc withdrawal delays
any source?
I was chatting with two members of Gox support earlier. They said there will be an announcement today (sorry i don't have a screenshot). I asked them was it bad news i.e. exchange closing liquidity problems. They said no, not at all, they just needed people to be patient.
They said it was a 100% technical issue, a "dust problem" whatever that means.
I asked if Mark K could reproduce the "trick" he did one other time to prove they were solvent i.e. move a heap of BTC between two internal wallets so we know they have the coins. The support guy didn't commit to doing it but said it would be raised with Mark K.
I guess we can only wait and see.
Good to hear. I don't feel they can be insolvent with so much revenue you can generate with cryptos nowadays.
I don t think mark is a scammer, otherwise he would not have given back the coins that were stolen back in 2011 when mtgox was hacked.
However, I feel that they lack discipline and support staff, tremendously. But because they want to keep a high level of secrecy they are reluctant to doing so. Some ppl say it s a French mafia over there at MtGox in the sense that they do not trust so much non French staff. I am not sure about that. But certainly it can create communication barriers.
But come on now they need to change that.
Bitcoin is a key tech to make a world a better place and they are still the number 3 exchange out there.
So they still have a huge responsibility. It is not only about making money. Any more.
By the way how did you get to chat with the staff? It seems that they are never available.
