Title: Mt. Gox and other exchanges Post by: danoplus on June 10, 2011, 09:53:41 PM Just a stupid question...so where does Mt. Gox get all of the bitcoins from?
Title: Re: Mt. Gox and other exchanges Post by: ironwolf on June 10, 2011, 10:13:13 PM Mt. Gox is an exchange. The bitcoins come from people who want to sell, and flow through Mt. Gox to people who want to buy.
