With the large price difference in BTC between MtGox and Bitstamp (and I see this getting much bigger and quickly), I was looking at some ways of transfer BTC to MtGox, Selling it, and getting the USD back to BitStamp so buy back and make a couple of coins, so went to check out Aurumxchange and bang, as of today they are "discontinuing operations"...
Personal opinion... matter of time before MtGox goes bang too. Right now just have to figure out how to take advantage of this massive gap!

The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

AurumXChange didn't exactly have a reputable owner last I checked. Click the link in my signature, CTRL + F search for "AurumXChange".

Seems to me the entire Bitcoin infrastructure is going kaboom one by one. There was a big story on bitspend yesterday too.

Its a shake-out that had to happen. There were far too many cowboys in the bitcoin wild west. It will cause uncertainty for the next year or so. But it was inevitable. Hang on to your hats.

ok it a few service companies may collapse
but bitcoin will still be strong as it is decentralized and therefore there will always be demand for it since government cannot ban it.
it can only block bank accounts and places that store your physical money.

Probably they lost all their money when Liberty Reserve went under, combined with the strict fincen rules wacky Americans now enforce worldwide, plus banks dropping exchangers and not wanting anything to do with bitcoin = bankrupt

nothing to do with mtgox, banks, USSA or bitcoin, they were just exposed to LR and tecnocash. how anyone would want to stay in business after those two crash and you depend on them so much is insurmountable
