    Mt Gox gone. End of bitcoin soon?

    Who would invest in this shit now? I was thinking about it and glad I didn't. Hope posters didn't have anything at Gox.

    Documents purportedly leaked from the company lay out the scale of the problem. An 11-page "Crisis Strategy Draft" published on the blog of entrepreneur and Bitcoin enthusiast Ryan Selkis says that 740,000 bitcoins are missing from Mt. Gox, which roughly translates to hundreds of millions of dollars' worth of losses, although figures are fuzzy given Bitcoin's extreme volatility.

    "At the risk of appearing hyperbolic, this could be the end of Bitcoin, at least for most of the public," the draft said.
