So does mtgox use mtgox to sell their bitcoins?
It would make sense. They could then make a profit on their profit.

But unless they are very stupid indeed....

I'll let you decide on that one, you just have to look over their previous decisions.

It makes sense that if they are accruing massive deposits in Bitcoins they would sell them back into the market to hedge their risk and fund the business.  But unless they are very stupid indeed they will  not want to risk their reputation.

Truth is a consensus among neurons www.synereo.com
Does anyone know how many daily users they actually have?
I'm wondering how much of this money is just money moving back and forth.

In one of the Reddit posts it said that they had 12 core employees, plus 22 support staff to approve accounts, almost all of whom had been taken on in the last month.

Nice business model !

x2 - they take commission twice on a trade - one from the buyer, another from the seller?

this month over 2.5M btc  x 0.6 %  =15,000 btc...   the value depends if and when they sell...

600K coins  x    $60    x 0.5 %  = $180,000  today, just in dollar denominated trade.

…… I say good luck to them
