Dear MtGox Customers,

We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the recent suspension of external bitcoin transfers. Fortunately, as we announced on Saturday we have now implemented a solution that should enable withdrawals and mitigate any issues caused by transaction malleability (please see our previous statements for details on this issue).

Thanks to our friends at Blockchain.info, MtGox now has a workaround that will use a unique identifier created by Blockchain to show whether transactions have been modified or not. This will prevent any fraudulent use of the malleability issue and protect the assets of our customers.

Resuming Withdrawals

With this new system in place, MtGox should be able to resume withdrawals soon. At the beginning we will do so at a moderated pace and with new daily/monthly limits in place to prevent any problems with the new system and to take into account current market conditions.

* In order to launch the new system, we are going through the following steps:
* Re-indexing the entire Blockchain (approx. 32 million entries)
* Fully deploying the new NTX ID
* Implementing a new bitcoin withdrawal queue that needs to be tested

We will update everyone again by Thursday at the latest.

Additionally, you may have noticed that we have added a new login system that sends you an email when you successfully access your account. This is an additional security layer, but as always we strongly encourage our customers to use the 2-step authorization options available in our Security Center.

Thank you again for your support, and we look forward to resume bitcoin withdrawals as quickly as possible.

Best regards,

MtGox Team

Easily explained by MtGox working super slowly. Withdraw limits are in order to prevent tens of thousands of bitcoins being suddenly dumped on other exchanges. People frequently fear this happening whenever Silk Road is hacked (or feds seize coins), so people should be happy that we're saved this kind of event for a bit longer.

Blockchain.info are the good guys in all this. Remember that Roger Ver has vouched for Mt Gox in the past and he is also majority owner of Blockchain.info. He's the good guy looking out for the whole Bitcoin ecosystem.
Thanks Roger and Blockchain team!

Grateful Mom - Bitcoin changed my son's life for the better (self.Bitcoin)

submitted 13 minutes ago by katiedog

As a mom who saw her son wasting away his life on the couch playing video games, I was very grateful when my son discovered bitcoin. My son has learned the fundamentals of finance, computer security, digital mining and cryptography.

He is now employed and very successful. I believe the interest in bitcoin is what turned it all around for him.

The economy makes it very hard for young men just starting out. I believe bitcoin is one of the most successful social program to get young men to work. No government has ever created a program that trained as many young men as the bitcoin phenomenon. Young men becoming mining or coding means they are not out getting into trouble.

This mom is very grateful. Thank you bitcoin for turning my son into a man.

Oh I didn’t see it coming but it came via lan
Now my sweet son's been mined into a man
Mine too and hey we know just who to blame
When our sons have fun belittling women and misbehave
Bitcoin! Mined a man of my son
Now he’s dissing all the women and his chores aren’t done
He was just my little sweetie, tiny fingers, hands and feeties
Now he’s a misogynist and staring at all the women because
Bitcoin!
New blocks!
Mined a man of my son. Now he smells like a redditor and they treat him like one

well, the fix would always have to be a deeper inspection of the block chain either way, so outsourcing it to a central authority is both natural and a sign of things to come (i.e. no one will actually use the decentralized nature of bitcoin since it is inconvenient and stupid with no real payoff)
