UberJumper posted:My friend has been trying to get the BTC sitting on Mt Gox that he initially dumped to their site with the idea that it would easy to withdraw. He requested a withdrawal a month ago and apparently his wallet on gox is empty, but he didn't receive anything. Mt Gox support is borderline worse than Virtex. hahahaha

that really long post about digimon online exchange owns btw I told him he was playing with people’s lives, and some people stood to lose their entire savings. Like Gonzague told me the night before, he mentioned technical issues, and that he would look into my case. Then 20mins later at around 9.40am Gonzague arrived. “Good news” he said, we have sorted out your account, go and check it online. After I got Wi-Fi connection back the hotel I discovered my failed BTC withdrawal transactions had been cancelled and all my BTC were put back in the one place in the world I didn’t want them: The MtGox website. Back to joining the queue of 40,000 other BTCs.

[–]lofties 28 points 3 hours ago I had a job interview with MtGox a couple of weeks ago for a frontend developer position. After talking about their technical environment I declined the position. Contemplated publicizing my story, but I have zero proof that the interview took place. But gently caress me is their environment hosed up. Either way, I have been recommending to my friends to move any BTC away from Gox as soon as possible, and regret not bringing this advice into the open. I'm a Tokyoite, so if you want to talk to me about the job Interview, or just drink a beer, send me a DM. [–]sohhlz 9 points 2 hours ago Can you give any more details of the interview and their environment? [–]lofties 26 points 2 hours ago I was told that up until a few weeks [at time of the interview] ago, there was hardly any development environment to test changes. Most changes were done straight on the production environment. Typing this made me throw up in my mouth. The guy who interviewed me was very friendly, but I felt like a psychiatrist more than a job candidate. The dude went on about how lovely the atmosphere is at the offices, and what he told me about Mark seems to be spot on from what OP has said. Interview guy, if you read this, sorry yo.

BeOSPOS posted:quoting a question I asked earlier how far back are we talking here, because the thing about 51% attacks is that you write history faster than anybody else. so any transactions made after you started would be trivial, but going waaaaaaaay the gently caress back means starting from whatever block that transaction happened in and then catching up to now so not impossible but kind of pointless

for anybody thinking "uh but wouldn't that totally be worth it if bitcoin was worth billions", yes, it would, which is why the network security is so important and can't ever be less expensive than the reward for beating it

BeOSPOS posted:far back enough to reissue a large very transaction to your own wallet instead of the original recipient. (Does this make sense? I imagine you'd need the sender's private key to sign the old transaction. and not to mention retooling any subsequent transactions from either original sender or recipient's wallets. seems like a monumental use of resources & computing power.) you'd need the private key for that so 51% won't help you. however if you have the resources to fork the blockchain from like 2010 and catch up to now you'd be able to claim the block reward from every one of those blocks anyway so gently caress it you could still be king butt

i am typing too many words about bitcoin so i am going to copy/paste some instead [–]profBS 21 points 5 hours ago Based on this story, I now suspect: Mt. Gox has the coins. The coins are under lockdown as investigators crack down on them. Technical problem might be on purpose. Thoughts? [–]preferrous 10 points 4 hours ago The coins are under lockdown as investigators crack down on them. Very likely. Some government has probably subpoenaed the whereabouts of (at least part of) the cryptographic material needed to pull the coins out of cold storage, and now gox no longer has access to them. Not lost, but not coming back anytime soon either. [–]cypherreddit 5 points 3 hours ago That would support the suggestion they are buying cheaper coins on other markets this weekend. They might be trying really hard to salvage the company.

Boxturret posted:i'm still not really understanding the "double spend" thing. adix explained the transaction id changing thing, the double or triple or w/e spend comes into play when you're magic the gathering online exchange and you assume transaction id NOT_FOR_DRUGS can't be changed. i change it to id FUCK_YOU_GOT_MINE by shuffling the contents(not the inputs or outputs, i can't change those) and the transfer of butts from you to me still happens, just under a new name. i then complain that i never received transaction NOT_FOR_DRUGS, you try to find it but can't, and oh weird how that keeps happening, better just resend the butts so protocol still blocks double spends, it's your own drat fault if you assume a silly thing like a transaction id could be used to identify a transaction
