This is Coinbase, Kraken et al throwing MtGox under the bus to stop the taint from spreading. Note there is no mention of any help for MtGox or its customers. Just reassurance that they aren't MtGox.
This is the wagons being circled to stop the non MtGox price from tanking further.
- Narkov 13y agoWhy should they help MtGox or its customers?
- spiralpolitik 13y agoThey shouldn't, but there seems to be the expectation that the community will step in and help MtGox out of this mess for the sake of Bitcoin. It isn't going to happen as MtGox has been a boil that's needed to be lanced for a while now. This is the first step given that MtGox has decided to stay silent.
- zanny 13y agoThe best thing for the sake of bitcoin is for Gox to be gone. Maybe we could finally have a year where the incompetence of their engineering and management staff doesn't skew the price all about like a merry-go-round.
- Crito 13y agoCan you really throw somebody under the bus if the bus is already firmly parked on top of them?
