There are rumors flying that MtGox is testing butt withdrawals, but lead dev Gavin says that's not what they're doing. The trading volume is so low that just a couple of people with the wrong info can spike the price.

salted hash browns posted:this is actually a good question, where are my options, forwards, futures, swaps and other esoteric financial derivatives for bitcoin? I think Mircea Popescu's porn site financial exchange is or was doing at least some options, and there's also btc.sx. There was something called BitcoinOPX.com that seems to have been stillborn in 2012. Someone announced the creation of a derivatives trading site on the Bitcointalk forums the day before Goxgate, so who knows if that's going to happen eventually. Of course 'coiners make up their own The chucklefuck who wiped the AWS virtual machine was Bitomat, which as far as I remember was just an exchange with no fancy features.

On the "how many exchanges have closed so far?" front, I remembered that the Bitcointalk folks had compiled a handy list of giant ripoffs, etc.

Fascist Funk posted:in what world were people giving gox money and bitcoins involuntarily? Actually, some of the Bitcoinica clients had their accounts transferred to Gox after Bitcoinica closed. Gox then refused to cooperate with the liquidators appointed by the New Zealand government to get some percentage of Bitcoinica assets back to the creditors.

They didn't mention in that hideous infographic that the Norwegian guy lost all the butts he didn't cash out for his apartment when Bitcoin-de was seized. That deposition is loving hilarious. Sometimes it's like Moustakis can't believe that Shavers is such a child. "Oh, I could figure it out if I had my computer here." "So why haven't you done it? You're under court order." "Oh, it would take at least five days."
