These people are not my close friends (I occasionally contacted them by IRC or E-mail for support, probably more often their employees) but

I am pretty sure that Jed was the person who started the business, and he sold it to MagicalTux. This would indicate that it's a coincidence that MT in MagicalTux is like MT in MtGox. Maybe MagicalTux chose his nickname for this reason.




I know MagicalTux since 1999. So when I said "close friend" I meant, I was used to call him "MT" in real life 13 years ago.


So, he also knew Jed for so long and the service was named with him in mind?

Or I am totally wrong about the origin of the service...
