mt.gox is no longer a refence for bitcoin price.
We are currently at 130.7 usd / btc and we never reached 140 this month.
Did you make a typo?
Say's who? Coindesk? Bitstamp? BTC-E?
You are right, but what good is that? ya you can put bitcoins in and get bitcoins out but who cares? What good does that do you. People use an exchange to exchange
Some of us only put bitcoins in, and only take bitcoins out. If I see at $200 on gox and it drops to $100 at which point I buy back, I withdraw BTC, just like I deposited BTC.
That is what i do, i have never deposited usd or withdrawn usd from any exchange. I understand your point but it is not no good doing that on gox.
If you send to gox and sell off then when you buy back in it will be at a higher rate than market value. So you mine or buy coins and you sell them on gox for usd at a 10 percent mark up Sweet right? No because when you buy back in you will be buying back in at a 10 percent mark up and you have the added risk of dealing with an exchange that is on the ropes.
