They'll stay the kings as long as they got the most liquidity.

Back up to 128 after all the bad news today. Wow. Yep, they'll survive this, somehow.  We desperately need some real competition against it though. A few more serious DDos attacks and the charts may not forgive. |

Lost quite a bit of money due to the lag today - inability to cancel orders led to them being filled instead of canceled so I could readjust. An active system requires the ability to respond to changing conditions immediately but a 4 minute lag means your order is going to screw you over  And m.mtgox.com is a bloody joke. Good luck if it keeps you logged in for more than 8 seconds. |

BTC-E Maybe? Or Bitstamp...I am guessing it is between those two. |

My second choice was Coinbase, but now they are always sold out.
My third choice is Bitfloor because they allow cash deposits which are normally fast. Except for tonight, when my deposit has been waiting for 2.5 4 hours.

A few more serious DDos attacks and the charts may not forgive. Agreed. Right now Mt. Gox is the Achilles' heel of Bitcoin. I was just thinking that myself earlier. Even if Gox stays the primary exchange, hopefully once they adjust / recode / upgrade hardware and software, these issues can hopefully be behind us. |
Oh Loaded, who art up in Mt. Gox, hallowed be thy name! Thy dollars rain, thy will be done, on BTCUSD. Give us this day our daily 10% 30%, and forgive the bears, as we have bought their bitcoins. And lead us into quadruple digits

Goxlag is the best indicator of possible price movement I can imagine. I'm thinking about writing some script to turn on the alarm and wake me up if goxlag is > X  But I have just registered an account on Bitstamp. Thinking of moving some funds there. |

Their engineering team is a joke if they haven't fixed the lag and put online a decent trading engine after MONTHS AND MONTHS of time. They completely blew their lead in the field and will just become a mediocre exchange soon enough.

This is a good point. All though it doesn't seem to lag as much when the price increases. But the flash crashes it seems too. I am going to start testing Bitstamp. |
