Bitcoin Exchange Mt. Gox Goes Dark After Theft Report
"The website of major bitcoin exchange Mt. Gox was offline Tuesday amid reports it suffered a debilitating theft, a new setback for efforts to gain legitimacy for the virtual currency," The Associated Press reports.
Also Tuesday, all the posts had been erased from the Mt. Gox Twitter account.
The news about what's happening to the Tokyo-based Mt. Gox has roiled the market for the virtual currency, CNBC writes:
"The price of bitcoin fell to $425 by 6 a.m. London time, according to CoinDesk which tracks the price on a selection of major exchanges, after starting the day at $545, but rebounded shortly afterwards. The price of the currency on Mt Gox had fallen to around $100 before the exchange's website became inaccessible."
