Turnover of btc transactions on mtgox has been very small lately.. have anybody noticed significant shift of users/amount of turnover to other exchanges?
If yes, which ones?

May the wind always be at your back and the sun upon your face and may the wings of destiny carry you aloft to dance with the stars.

I think this because of paranoia that mtgox will be shutdown. I think the volume is divided into new and existing exchanges like

btc-e.com
bitstamp.net
mcxnow.com
bter.com
criptsy.com
crypto-trade.com
campbx.com
cavirtex.com
vircurex.com

I ended up going with CoinBase to actually buy but I had registered with mt. gox too at first.  I think the deal with them using mutum sigillum llc as an intermediary to handle money was dumb on their end all around.  Vircuex seems tempting for their ability to buy up my alt-coins.

They're still leading by far, making much more volume than the second biggest exchange.

I used to be a citizen and a taxpayer. Those days are long gone.

I know a number of services are using mtgox exclusively because of their api. Curious if the other exchanges will provide a robust api.

This is not paranoia, its question of time when mtgox will be shut down. Newer underestimate power of DoJ on foreign territory

Interesting,  I had a feeling mtgox was getting smaller but that proves it is still by far number 1.

The fact that other exchanges are getting a bigger amount of sales is good because bitcoins is about decentrilization and the more 1 company controls the currency the bigger the possiblity of it controling the whole system.
