It's too bad that they'll rollback trades to a certain point and freeze trading if a crash does occur... I've got student loans that need paying. =D

Mtgox became the focus when correction happened in 2013.
China was the focus on previous big correction in 2014.
The next big correction that occur, will Bitfinex become the focus of the world? And is it good or bad for the business?

Total swap is still over 30M. Where do you guys get the falling figure from?

$ swaps are slowly decreasing, not falling. They did fall in February, but now it's still undecided. And yet no jump in BTC swaps.
