People doing things like covering up an 800k+ BTC theft "for the good of Bitcoin" is what will probably kill Bitcoin in the end. However good your intentions might be, if people can't trust the people running exchanges they won't use Bitcoin services. Doing something dishonest such as covering up a major crime for the "right" reasons is still dishonest. As beneficial as a secure anonymous currency may prove in the future, this debacle just goes to show how important the human factor is, and no amount of clever crypto is going to stop that.

I can't tell if Karpelès really believes all the nonsense coming out of his mouth or not. Is he really that naive? He lost a decent chunk of a billion dollars but he thinks he can just rebrand and keep the company going? He believes it's better 'for Bitcoin' to keep Gox running even though all the money is gone? He thinks there's still a way out of this mess?

I don't understand how he thinks.
