| It’s been a bad month for Bitcoin.
On February 7, Mt.Gox — the once-popular exchange that hosted 80 percent of the world’s Bitcoin trades — informed users that they were temporarily halting withdrawals of the popular electronic currency from their service due to a technical problem called transaction malleability. This technical flaw allowed fraudsters to manipulate the unique ID of a Bitcoin transaction. They could make it appear as if the withdrawal never happened even though they would still receive the funds. |
