$100 seems to be being defended with market orders, nothing much to be gained following the bid/ask walls right now. Who knows how much money this guy has to burn.

MtGox is closing for 8 days? ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) Though, on second thought, that's not entirely a bad thing.

Perhaps what we need instead of exchanges that accept fiat (which is the big problem), have crypto-dollars (and other currencies). Similar to Bitcoin, these would be redeemable directly for dollars on a 1-1 basis (like Gox vouchers possibly?) . These would allow exchanges to be set-up without having to worry about having to process fiat and allow some decent competition between the exchanges.
you might want to look into ripple.

thanks for these updates. can someone explain why the bid sum went down drastically quite a while before the drop with price being stable and even rising?

MtGox allowed cancelling active orders, but no placement of new orders during the 12hr "market cooldown". Great idea! (Ten points for trying, minus several million for good thinking.) Predictably, buyers scrambled to cancel their bids, while sellers mostly stayed put.

MtGox allowed cancelling active orders, but no placement of new orders during the 12hr "market cooldown". Oh. What any exchange anywhere in the real world would have done, would be along these lines: - Close trading for at least 24 hours to enable notification to all account holders - Erase all existing orders - Allow placement of new orders - Execute an "opening", where all the bids and asks are matched against each other, and the market cleared with one price (and probably huge volume as all market orders and a good number of limit bids and asks would be instantly executed). Only after this the open trading would commence. It is sad that they seem to have no experience whatsoever concerning the basics on how to run an exchange.

They do, for about 3 years, don't they?
