Citizenperth User ID: 31644236 Australia 02/26/2014 11:01 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Japan probing bitcoin exchange after huge reported theft By Hiroshi Hiyama CRIME FEB. 27, 2014 - 10:00AM JST ( 18 ) Japan probing bitcoin exchange after huge reported theft A man looks at the bitcoin exchange website of MtGox in Tokyo on February 25, 2014 AFP TOKYO — Japanese authorities were Wednesday probing the troubled MtGox bitcoin exchange after claims of a multi-million dollar theft from its digital vaults, as U.S. prosecutors reportedly served a subpoena on the company. The moves came the day after the website of Tokyo-based MtGox went dark, possibly heralding huge losses for investors, and sending ripples of alarm throughout the global community of digital currency adopters. “I understand that ministries and agencies concerned—financial services, police and the finance ministry—are looking into the matter to learn the full scope of the issue,” Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga, told reporters. “Once we have full knowledge of what happened, we will take action if necessary,” he said. The comments, at a regular press conference, were the first government reaction to events at MtGox, which froze withdrawals earlier this month, claiming there was a bug in the software that underpins bitcoin, making it vulnerable to thieves. The value of the volatile unit plunged on the Tokyo exchange and was bobbling around $130 on Tuesday, around a quarter of what it was fetching on other platforms, until the site suddenly disappeared at lunchtime. Hours later, MtGox published a statement saying: “In light of recent news reports and the potential repercussions on MtGox’s operations and the market, a decision was taken to close all transactions for the time being in order to protect the site and our users.” [end snip] Full article: [link to www.japantoday.com] It probably went to fund TEPCO It's life as we know it, but only just.

Saddletramp User ID: 736969 Puerto Rico 02/26/2014 11:02 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | 1 year from now 1 bitcoin will be worth over 50K USD. Mark my words. I will bump this thread and post photos of all my new lamborghinis. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 3553900 For those of you lamenting you missed the boat, it's not too late. I remember when Ostrich and Emu breeders were saying that shit, breeding pairs were selling for thousands of dollars, now they abandon them on the sides of county roads. Anything that requires a constant flow of new money/investors to increase or maintain value is doomed to failure in the end...
