I'm thankful I just moved all everything out of mt gox.
So far I love campbx, the lower exchange rate is worth the piece of mind.

the freenode chat has nothing to report either besides that tux does not pick up his phone. I quote from freenode:
< neofutur> quotation is suspended for more than 2 hours now, no official word until now, probably a technical problem [19:51] <neofutur> MT dont answer the phone until now [19:52] <neofutur> I keep trying to contact him
It's 3:00 AM in Tokyo. If he isn't sleeping then he must be on drugs - either way we will probably need to wait at least few more hours...

Strangly, that this was unnoticed by the community

Since I'm buying some coins on Monday, hopefully this will (temporarily) reduce the price Seriously though, I wonder what effect Mt Gox suddenly folding would have?

If mt.gox folds people will just use the next best exchange. I don't think it will have anything but a temporary effect on the economy

...2011? Maybe we'll see it happening the other way around this time?

My freakin' luck.
I literally haven't traded anything in over a year. Just this morning I was like, "What the hay" transferred a majority of my BTC (I don't have many to begin with) to Mt. Gox and leave for a nice stroll. Come back and see this and brain goes into panic mode.
Looks like I was able to bring my BTC back home, so that's good.

The symptoms are others than one week before: Order list is seen now, orders can be cancelled, but new orders are kept in a "pending" state.
So I think, for some reason new orders cannot be placed, but existing ones are cancelled, so the gap between bid and ask grows.
Suppose it's only a technical issue. Waiting on Mt.Gox to wake up.

I wonder, currently if you look at orderbook you can see how price is changing, and on the bid side it is droping and on asks side it is rising. Would it be from technical and financial point of view better to shut down the orderbooks too , because in current situation when there is no actual trading orderbook cannot be qualified as representing actual market status. I mean will this induce panic or? What am I missing?
