No, you're right. Its why CampBX isnt important. If they went to $500 it wouldnt effect the other markets at all.
If CBX went to $500 I'd move coins there and sell them, move fiat to my bank, then wire it back to bitfinex. Hell, at that price you could just buy the coins thru localbitcoins. |

Google trends image. What exactly is fueling this rally? This tells me it's old money doing the same all over.  maybe there is a service called "baidu trends"? Zero trade fees in china is fueling this pump/fake-rally. Zero trade fees are what's called "free market." So I have no idea why you think that would distort the market. It's pretty easy to fake volume when there are no financial constraints to doing so. Don't you think? A single whale can repeatedly buy and sell his own coins. (That's not to say the market won't roll over him or that this is what is happening) Sure you can manipulate volume. How will that help in manipulating price? You don't think manipulating volume can affect price action? Re price manipulation, that would depend on how much of the coins/fiat on the exchange is controlled by the whale. Is it impossible that one could drive up the inter-exchange rate this way? Or would he just be run over by arbitrage? I don't really know, I'm just brainstorming... No one can arb using an exchange located in a country that has capital controls!!! Go ahead try to move fiat money out of China... and you thought Gox was hard... I'm pretty sure people can arb. After all lots of the people who have money in stuff like OKPay & LibertyReserve were Chinese. Obviously if you can get money into those types of things you can use similar approaches to arb. Okay... i stand corrected... there is no *easy way*... |

Well yeah, but its like when rmbtb CNY went to 1500 the other day.. no other exchanges gave a fuck. Because they arent significant. Significance comes in the form of volume and trust. Bitstamp is #1 in that I think. Followed by Gox. Then maybe BTC-China and BTC-E. |

Whenever I try to execute any order on Gox I'm getting a timeout error, but normal use is working fine, this happening for anyone else? Its not a big deal, I only have a couple bucks in there, but what the heck?
