Hi All,

This may have been explained in another post but there's something I don't get:
http://bitcoinity.org/markets/mtgox/USD

On an exchange which doesn't trade, how can the price be anything above 0$? When the website is inaccessible, shouldn't it be removed from any indexers?

I'm guessing the MTGox API is still live, and if so, I don't get how the price is variable when people can't buy or sell.

Thanks!

Transactions must be included in a block to be properly completed. When you send a transaction, it is broadcast to miners. Miners can then optionally include it in their next blocks. Miners will be more inclined to include your transaction if it has a higher transaction fee.

No trading is going on, it's just old data.

Write to bitcoinity (and other sites) and ask them to remove the quote from dead exchanges.  I mean is anyone still showing the last quote for Tradehill, bitcoinica, and countless other failed exchanges?  It is stupid and pointless.
