I only wonder which exchange will be next to fall and I will surely feel sorry for those who lose out.
HUGE price spike today to $1000+ , before settling back down to 560ish...
As far as I'm concerned, Gox biting the dust was good for BTC. They kept screwing people around, and started bending over backwards for TPTB.
The feds probably dug up some skeleton in the closet of the founder, because there is no other explanation as to his behavior and actions.

They should stay down.
people be respectfull remember some people lost even 4 or 11 millon usd one guy lost 400k usd his life savings
They undoubtably had a huge impact on the early history of Bitcoins. RIP
At last, It's good as the accursed finally recognizes itself so the offline is good for the market.
However for Majority of people who use mtgox's service, "MY FUCKER!", You know the meaning.

Solid advice on good wallet practice there, good lessons to be had from the gox saga for those unfortunate folks with coin there.
the price is going down, time to collect bitcoins with cheaper price 
Oh Great, Bye bye millions why not take my wife and kids while your at it!
Gox sucks, I'm glad it's down I hope to not hear about their antics anymore. I set up an account there many months ago and quickly moved any coins off once I saw how difficult it was to get money out. This is good for a buying opportunity but I wish I had more fiat on hand to buy with.
MtGox had halted trading and now is offline!!

Bitcoin Exchange Mt. Gox Goes Offline Amid Allegations of $350 Million Hack

Prices went down to 420$ as of writing this in other exchanges.
Prices are expected to go back to the previous level in a few weeks.
Shutting down of MtGox is actually a good news bcoz it always disreputed bitcoin.
