That would explain the (pretty significant) volume drop on Huobi, but why BTCe, Bitstamp, and Gox?

All those in denial may just want to do themselves a favour and listen to every opinion to at the very least educate themselves. If you have learned everything you possibly can about the situation in China, including what's happening with the volume at Huobi and researched the background of the owner of what is currently the largest exchange in the world, and conclude that this situation is not a threat to bitcoin short term, that more power to you.

Because those are Chinese traders too.

Because those are Chinese traders too. BTCe is Russian, and Gox is based in the United States, not sure about bitstamp

The reason for the low volume on multiple exchanges is that there is little agreement on a price between buyers and sellers. The markets almost run out of greater fools to buy at such high prices, but there aren't many sellers yet willing to sell at lower prices. So most of the players are waiting for a clear trend. IMO it's going to be down, but this is bitcoin, anything can happen.

Sometimes, if it looks too bullish, it's actually bearish

Bitstamp, based in Slovenia
To be precise, Bitstamp as a company is registered in United Kingdom, but indeed the operation base is in Slovenia, and owner + staff are from there. It also uses a Slovenian bank for accounting.

In fact UniCredit Slovenia is not really a Slovenian bank, it is a subsidiary of a large financial group governing different banks in Europe (Italy, Slovenia, Poland, Austria, Germany).

I like the name bitstamp, because of some unknown reason to me (even for myself/conscious mind) but it's reminds me "time stamp" ... and I am/was bit involved with NTP sync servers ...
