Hmmm I still think it is a hoax, and a way for someone intelligent to earn a lot of money by manipulating bitcoin prices... The release in April 1st? Domain registered hours ago? Algo mtgox.com is registered in 1api. I don't see why they would switch registrars only for this, and there is a post in Mark Karpeles' blog accusing GoDaddy of shitty security practices: http://blog.magicaltux.net/tag/godaddy/ http://blog.magicaltux.net/tag/godaddy/

So if someone went through the trouble of buying a 3 letter domain to sway the market somehow, and made it look like it was now owned by Mark, they have effectively given the domain to mark as he could simply call up godaddy and use the details of the whois (his email, phone) to obtain full control. So yes, Gox.com probably his now
