比特币末日时刻：MTGox可能已丢失约75万个比特币

比特币之家讯：今日reddit比特币区有一位外国用户发帖爆料：近日处于风雨飘摇之中的MTGox比特币交易平台丢失了总量约为750000个的巨额比特币。

贴文原文翻译如下：

我刚从可靠人士处收到了一份未经证实的报告，据称这份报告来自MTGox内部。这份文件被该交易所命名为“危机战略草案”。

虽然我现在非常相信这份文件的真实性，但我还是会努力求证，以确定这份文件100％的真实性。

以下内容摘自该文件：

“几个星期以来，MtGox一直深受客户撤出比特币问题的困扰。MtGox曾公开宣称”交易可塑性“导致交易系统受到盗窃，并需要由比特币核心开发者来解决该问题。

MTGox自己这种不负责任的迂回方案被批评，并最终被Blockchain.info提供的证据所揭穿。事实证明，这种损害已经成为了事实。这么多年以来几乎没有人注意到，由于可塑性问题已经有744408个比特币被窃。

由于热钱包泄漏问题影响，该交易所的冷储存库已经被摧毁。现实情况是，MtGox作为一个公司很有可能随时倒闭。然而，随着比特币及数字加密技术刚刚被公众接受，由于这一技术问题影响很有可能招致政府迅速而严厉的打击，使比特币重回5年前的初始状态。

风险似乎是巨大的，对于大部分公众来说，这可能是比特币的终结。我们相信比特币的价值，包括其改变世界的潜力，以及交易透明性的原理。现在我们最担心的是MTGox用户和接受比特币的产业将会受到的影响。 很可能这些影响将会远大于其所带来的财产损失本身，而且我们认为保证MtGox的稳定运转会带来更多的好处。这已经再也不只是拯救MtGox的问题了。”

虽然这个消息将会是灾难性的，但是对不起，我还是要分享给大家。我相信，许多人会担心比特币能否继续存活下去。我已经通过Coinbase卖我所持有的所有比特币。

我是一个容忍度很高的风险投资人，但我相信这对于作为货币和新兴产业的比特币来说是一个灾难性的消息。

如果这是一个恶作剧的话，我已经完全为之傻眼了。但是我担心的是，它并不是一个恶作剧。（译：比特币之家：那谁儿、hwwbc555）

  Bitcoin’s Apocalyptic Moment: Mt. Gox may have lost 750,000 bitcoins
  
  I have received an ***unverified*** report from an otherwise reliable source, which is purportedly from Mt. Gox. The document, which is titled “Crisis Strategy Draft” outlines the current situation at the exchange.
  
  
  I trust the authenticity, but have work to do to verify the document myself 100%. I will work to do so feverishly.
  
  
  Here is what it says in the introduction:
  
  
  "For several weeks MtGox customers have been affected by bitcoin withdrawal issues that compounded on themselves. Publicly, MtGox declared that “transaction malleability” caused the system to be subject to theft, and that something needed to be done by the core devs to fix it.
  
  
  Gox’s own workaround solution was criticized, and eventually a fix was provided by Blockchain.info. The truth, it turns out, is that the damage had already been done. At this point 744,408 BTC are missing due to malleability-related theft which went unnoticed for several years.
  
  
  The cold storage has been wiped out due to a leak in the hot wallet. The reality is that MtGox can go bankrupt at any moment, and certainly deserves to as a company. However, with Bitcoin/crypto just recently gaining acceptance in the public eye, the likely damage in public perception to this class of technology could put it back 5~10 years, and cause governments to react swiftly and harshly.
  
  
  At the risk of appearing hyperbolic, this could be the end of Bitcoin, at least for most of the public. We believe in the value of Bitcoin, its potential to change the world, and its principles of transparency. Most importantly we care about the customers of MtGox and other bitcoin-based businesses who will be affected. The likely consequences will be larger than this localized financial damage, and we believe that the benefits of keeping MtGox stable and running outweigh the risks. This isn’t about saving MtGox anymore.”
  
  
  This is catastrophic, and I am sorry to share this. I do believe that this is one of the existential threats to bitcoin that many have feared and have personally sold all of my bitcoin holdings through Coinbase.
  
  
  To do so, and not give you the same information, would be dishonest and immoral. I am a risk tolerant investor, but I believe this will be catastrophic for Bitcoin, both as a currency and as a fledgling industry.
  
  
  If this is a hoax, it is one that I am fully blindsided by. I fear, however, that it is not.
