The company announced its closure on August 26, 2001, perceived as an early indicator of the growing dot-com bust. Upon the company's closing, all unused flooz credits became worthless and nonrefundable. Over its short history, flooz.com reportedly exhausted from $35 to $50 million in venture capital.

Thankfully, I've invested all my money in Bore futures.

:whew hope some of these dudes started early. goddamn :lol
90.5 BTC [$46,879]
Was going to use them to pay off my student debt.
Not anymore.
I lost about 19.1 BTC [$9,893] But it gets better.... Just minutes before mtgox froze transactions I spoke with a woman I had slept with and she told me that she might have Chlamydia and I should go get tested.
67.25 BTC [$34,835] FML.
Lost 26k$. Fuck man
1200 btc. [$621,600]
144 BTC [$74,592] and 100 [$51,800] were entrusted to me by a friend because he wanted to get into cryptocurrency. I haven't told him what happened just now though he has been updated all this while. I don't know how to.
$16k was my initial investment, though the actual value at time of closing was closer to $40k.
I will tell myself I lost $16k and sleep somewhat better.
Sigh.
I'm going to come forth and admit I am probably one of the largest loser in Gox. I had 7911 BTC [$4,097,898] in my account which has been locked for almost a year.
About 1998 BTC [$1,034,964]. This was BTC I had in Bitcoinica until Zhou Tong decided to rob his own customers blind. Amir Taaki and the Bitcoin Consultancy group then sent the remaining BTC into MtGox for reimbursement where they promptly got hacked again resulting in insolvency. Late 2012 Bitcoinica was finally sent into liquidation but MtGox was unwilling to hand over the 60K+ BTC frozen in the Bitcoinica account to the court appointed liquidator (PKF) citing 'privacy reasons'. Now all of those are gone too. Despite all this, I'm still a believer in Bitcoin. (Just not so much other people)
16.13 BTC [$8,355.34] here.
It's okay though, because I am going to hunt those bastards down and skin them alive.
It's all going to be okay.
Lost fucking over 10k bt [$5,180,000]. Morhercuck I am goin to Tokyo hunt those mofo down.
Quote6.8 [$3,522.40], it was fun. I feel meh, I mined them with my video card a long time ago and didn't put any actual money into it so I see this as a net 0. The entertainment value though I think made it a net positive in the long run though.
like your positive attitude, im sure it will take you far in life
0.45 [$233.10], but I'm poor and at college...it's all I had man. Fuck :(
I am a 19y/o student and went all in. I lost 16.5 [$8,547] coins...
I just bought my first bitcoin 3 days ago trying to move up from dogecoin, and now it's gone! I've been having one of the shittiest weeks of my life. broken phone, broken transmission and 1 btc [$518] down in 3 days.
19.5 [$10,101] Unemployed, and trying to make a go of trading Cryptos. Gox ruined me. It looked promising until the China panic got me to put them into Gox.
Why did they take them?! They shouldn't have taken them from me!!!
I want to start off by saying that I've been waiting for this moment for a while. I knew it was bound to happen sooner or later, as soon as we weren't able to withdraw our coins from Mt. Gox weeks ago. I stupidly had my life's savings in bitcoin, and when the price started to fall, I converted to dollars and watched the price plummet. I lost $357,000. Not to try to earn a bunch of sympathy or anything but this was not only my money but it was going to be my 5 year old son's education fund which i took out of fidelity about 1 year ago to mess with bitcoins. I dont know what the fuck to do any more. I'm sitting here on reddit looking for comfort or just something but I don't know what I'm going to do now at all. I don't have shit to live for any more and the only thing I have left is just talking about it here I guess. I can't express what I'm feeling right now. THat shit was just sitting there and I couldn't take it out how could this whole shop just pack up and dissapear? I don't know if anyone here knows the facts or whats going on but I want to or if you have any slighest shred of evidence that its possible they arent really gone please et me know here. if im never going to see my money again all of it im going to either kill myself which i dont want to do because i want to live even though i have nothing to live for now, except my son who is now completely fucked
You better be joking.
I feel sorry for your son. Not you. Not you at all.
You withdrew an enormous amount of money from a trusted banking organization and jumped head first into fake internet money. Why? Was 375,000$ not enough? What school in the world is that not enough money to graduate from?
Was potentially turning that pile of money into a bigger pile of money that important? Did you really have to use it all? You deserve how shitty you feel and anyone here saying different is kidding themselves.
This sort of greed is not what Bitcoin is supposed to be about.
PS but dont kill yourself
You can lol all you want but the joke is seriously going to be on you guys if I bump this thread in a year telling everyone my scheme worked and I'm now as loaded as all fuck, driving a high class sports car, looking hot as all fuck :)
And I have to do it. I have to pull this off. I've got a point to prove to this skeptical, cynical world.
Anyway, my scheme. It's basic compounding. 2% roi daily (averaged over time) is equivalent to an annual interest rate of 730% a year. The compound factor is daily.
A 2% roi can be achieved with a few successful trades a day on a bitcoin market such as BTC-e. Losses can be minimised through conditional stop loss orders if the price falls below the line of support. The majority of trades should be successful through the use of solid good chart analysis fundamentals and not letting emotion get in the way of strategy.
So I say a millionaire within a few years? Ok.
Use the following parameters in this compound interest calculator - http://www.thecalculatorsite.com/fin...calculator.php
Annual Rate 730%
Compound Rate Daily
A base of $1000, getting a 2% roi daily will return 1.3 million after 1 year.
The question is can one actually achieve 2% daily? I achieved 17% daily averaged over the last week. I'm confident enough.
Maybe regulations aren't so bad, huh. :obama
Real talk, I wouldn't be surprised if these Mtgox guys get killed. Fucking around with peoples life savings and shit :whew
I would feel like shit too but Bitcoin isn't dead at any rate; sitting on it is gonna suck for a while :hitler
Maybe regulations aren't so bad, huh. :obama
We could sure as fuck use some more regulations for internet, this shit is pathetic. (http://www.theverge.com/2014/2/25/5431382/the-internet-is-fucked)

Does Mt Gox really stand for magic the gathering online exchange?
is that dude wearing google glasses
I don't know why they say they lost money. They lost bitcoins, not money. A bitcoin is worth whatever a dumbass is willing to pay you real money for it. Until you exchange bitcoins for real money you don't have nothing but a prayer that you can sucker someone before you become the sucker.shhhhhh

If I PayPal you twenty bucks, your estimate shows you could turn it into 26k in a year, I'll let you manage it for a fee and so I'll only expect 12k back, whaddya say?
Really curious about how much FoC lost on this one.

"We have lost Bitcoins due to weaknesses in the system," the France-born Karpeles said in Japanese according to the AFP. "We are really sorry for causing trouble to all the people concerned," he said, before bowing deeply.
Speaking at a Tokyo news conference on Friday, The New York Times reported that Mark Karpeles, the French-born CEO of the company, appeared in court uncharacteristically wearing a suit, and “bowed in contrition and apologized in Japanese.”
“I’m truly sorry to have caused inconvenience,” he said.

TOKYO -- The Japanese government will set rules for trading bitcoins, defining the virtual tender not as a currency but as a commodity akin to gold.Full circle. :lol
The Bitcoin masses, judging by their behavior on forums, have no actual interest in science, technology or even objective reality when it interferes with their market position. They believe that holding a Bitcoin somehow makes them an active participant in a bold new future, even as they passively get fleeced in the bolder current present.

The shadowy "Satoshi Nakamoto" is actually a dude name Satoshi Nakamoto. How the fuck this took 5 years to find out is beyond me.
