Title: Gox pulling away??
Post by: steelboy on October 23, 2013, 02:01:16 PM
Any ideas why Mt. Gox would be pulling away from the others today? GBP up to £133 and $ is £213. BTCChina and Bitstamp seem to be just ranging?

It needs its 8% extra over other exchanges - during the rally the difference dminished.

I noticed this also this morning. Though I don't have any theories, I simply came on here to comment and found your post!  ;D

I guess it is because of the serious lack of bid depth on Bitstamp. Sepa wires to Bitstamp should have arrived by now (before 5pm). So it looks like the rally is loosing momentum on Bitstamp.

My SEPA will still take 2-3 more days. Hopefully in time for the crash...  :P

For all we know, Gox is allowing bitcoins to be sold that don't even exist. So, anything is possible!  :D
