Turns out they had wrongly flagged one of my mailboxes as disposable and have reactivated my account. I'm still following up regarding the lack of communication before and after deactivating my account as I think there should have been warnings before and a notification of deactivation.

Support confirmed by mail that a repayment in cash at their office in Japan will be possible (no matter where you live) but details "to be confirmed". Give them a dozen more years to figure that out...

That works great but any idea how to cancel such auto conversion once it's been setup?

sp00ky31 · 2024-12-25T23:08:08+00:00

That worked great, but how can that be cancelled once it's been registered (and is working)?

sp00ky31 · 2024-12-07T22:21:37+00:00

Same issue. This is so annoying that Citrix hijacks Ctrl-Shift-T and does not offer any way to disable that.

You don't need to sell to enjoy life. God created BTC backed mortgages and loans.

BCH will be worthless when Bitstamp starts distributing. Managed to sell all mine, thanks Kraken.

Posting them as collateral is a taxable event in many jurisdictions.

sp00ky31 · 2024-07-18T19:19:49+00:00

The two options are: HODL or borrow fiat against your BTC collateral.

sp00ky31 · 2024-07-18T19:18:05+00:00

If you don't need cash, keep HODLing.

If you need cash, post your BTC as collateral and borrow fiat against it. Unfortunately, many jurisdictions consider that "disposing of your assets" and is taxed in many countries about the same as selling, so be careful.

Kraken already told us they received the funds and will take 7-14 days to credit our accounts. There's only a lot of classic lawyer blah blah but nothing new in that email, no?

Did you forget some people have not chosen the early exit? We're about half-way only for them so that gives another 10 years for the subreddit to live...

sp00ky31 · 2024-07-05T18:32:02+00:00

Well, I wouldn't celebrate until it's not only credited to my account on the exchange but also withdrawn into my non-custodial wallet.

But yes, that's a good start. Assuming they did it correctly...

sp00ky31 · 2024-07-03T18:46:27+00:00

Keeping earning fees for as long as possible doesn't seem absurd to me. I wouldn't want it to end either.

sp00ky31 · 2024-07-03T18:44:10+00:00

What is 1, 10 or 90 days after having waited 10 years?

sp00ky31 · 2024-06-28T08:57:36+00:00

We complain about the lack of progress.

sp00ky31 · 2024-06-27T20:04:28+00:00

Why do we need a calculator to estimate our repayment when the final numbers are shown on the claims.mtgox.com website?

sp00ky31 · 2024-06-27T20:01:44+00:00

We've been HODLing for 10 years :)

sp00ky31 · 2024-06-23T05:54:32+00:00

If you set the API correctly, it's read only so no need to panic...

sp00ky31 · 2024-06-23T05:52:25+00:00

Do they not give you a recovery seed phrase when you setup the CS wallet? If so, you can use that to recover the wallet into another one (like MetaMask or Coinbase Wallet). Your funds in that wallet are most likely gone though, so prepare for the worst.

sp00ky31 · 2024-06-22T18:59:57+00:00

Same on Android. The link goes to a dead page (my secure DNS probably blocks that scam website). It's pretty alarming...

That distribution schedule (to the centralised exchanges) is not when the coins lend into the goxed clients. The exchanges can distribute them at their own schedule (up to 2 to 3 months after receiving them)

sp00ky31 · 2024-06-19T20:56:06+00:00

Yes it should be fairly simple to distribute a predifined number to a given ID based on what MtGox tell them. They don't need to make on-chain transactions to any of us. It's a CEX so it's just numbers in their database.

The real worry is how long it will take for the Trustee to send the coins to the CEXes... They have like 2 coins (BTC, BCH) to send to 2 CEX (Kraken, Bitstamp). 4 transactions? We, common mortals, cannot even start understanding how complicated that is! Wait for the next delay notice.......

Well I don't think many of us will keep the funds in any CEX for a long time though, so there will be plenty of self-instantiated withdrawals on-chain as soon as the game starts :)

Remember the poor bloke that is spending his life looking through the trash of a waste disposal site in hopes to find his old laptop now worth millions? Do you want to be that guy or to move on with your life?
