Does anyone now why the price of BTC/USD is currently about $120 on Gox and closer to $100 on the other exchanges?

Cheers,

It's believed that MT Gox. doesn't have cash on hand so people are buying Bitcoin to transfer out.

If this post was useful, interesting or entertaining, then you've misunderstood.

Because if you sell on Gox, the only way to get cash out is to wait 6+ weeks.   It is a big cash tap right now and everyone is losing.
