Universities on mtgox - from the dumped DB

[kiko]

In the spirit of making lemonade when given lemons, I was interested to see from the how many students were using the mtgox site from .edu email addresses.

Here are the results. (I have trimmed all those with only 1 user for brevity).  Clearly if you're into bitcoin MIT  is the place to be!

More stats, this is neat!

...and from the UK.

No shows from Oxford and Cambridge! I guess you don't need Bitcoins if you already have a Swiss bank account

I laughed at the 2 from SOAS, they have no computer science courses but do have a reputation as an easy place to get weed.
