Theories as to why Stamp is still higher than Gox?
February 11, 2014, 07:42:48 PM
This is whatt I like to fucking see. A nice bounce back.

That's a solid idea. I'll give it some further thought.
Perhaps a well written letter with sufficient signatures will at least help to progress the conversation.
Thanks.

As per my earlier posts the Bitcoin Foundation carries just as large a portion of blame for this as Gox does.

See the guy in the number two spot?
So join the foundation and remove him. Be part of the solution.

I wrote to Cryptsy today to protest about their standard support ticket response - which closes with this:
"We recommend you purchase your Bitcoin from one of the the following Bitcoin merchants below as they have been proven to be trustworthy and reliable.
Campbx US
Coinbase US
BTC-e Russian
MtGox Japanese"
I hope everyone can do something however small to insist on integrity of exchanges and if possible at the Bitcoin Foundation.
If someone writes a letter on here and gets a few signatures on a separate thread to a decent firm but reasonable open letter asking the Foundation to clean up its act and act responsibly, we can gather some signatures, and maybe at least register some outrage.
Right now they are doing nothing - a petition might get press and force them to at least react to looking totally ineffectual and stupid.
Just a thought - KFR - write it up, it might give you some backing to challenge the Foundation if you have some support?

I think, and am hoping, that this is the sound of the last straw landing on the camel's back.
I've just signed up to the Bitcoin Foundation myself so I can at least help people to try and change it from within. I would suggest others join me.
If that fails then the Bitcoin community might as well reject the Bitcoin Foundation wholesale. And that might not be a bad thing.

Bitcoin does need a voice - a focus as an advocate.
However, the foundation has little has little if any credibility - so if it is possible for fresh faces (and respected ones) to move in and push for change, it can't do any harm.
You would have my vote, take Jorge with you?
Thank you - I appreciate that vote of confidence. The more I think about this the more I feel like taking off my coding hat and picking up the evangelist one. Anyone following this thread knows Jorge and I are often in disagreement but I have a great respect for his work and would love to have him on board. Smart people capable of disagreeing with each other whilst recognising the value in the work are few and far between.
There are plenty of smart people here that could help have an impact. So please do.
I've made my first post of dissent at the BF now. I'd welcome anyone interested in promoting and progressing Bitcoin that joined me.
If we can't effect change from the inside then we'll just set up another one.

76 Coins trading between 4000 - 4100?!
It was not wrong. Orders were executed equal to bid and ask.
Seems they have still problems on Huobi.
I still don't understand what problem you see.
You are aware that the first two columns (detailed order book) are independent of the other two (summary of the order book), right? It is not one table with four columns per row, but two tables with two columns, and the rows of one are not related to the rows of the other.
On the first two columns, going up from the spread to the 4100 CNY line there are several sell offers that seem to add up to 67. Below, on the bid side, the entries less than 4050 add to less than 1 (hence the "0" on the summary) and the next ones down to 4000 seem to add to 9. Those coins have not been traded yet; they are waiting for matching offers. The transaction log (trades already executed) is a separate table, below the part you have copied.
So what is wrong?
Bid/Ask depth on Huobi is normaly above 1000 Coins for 100 Renmibi, not 76 Coins.

Don't know about you, guys, but I am going to have some fresh fiat on Stamp tomorrow, or the day after. This is too good an opportunity to miss out on! 
The fear is palpable. Bitcoin will spring back just like it always has, and the ones who allowed themselves to get manipulated into selling will regret it.
Guess what, you don't have to fall for it.
Exactly..
When things really start heating up this year and the price goes ballistic... the fudsters are going to have to run really fast to keep up...
Once the button gets pushed...
The fudsters and perma bears are going to feel some pain

Yay BFX down for me but still trading
I have limit orders set. I am better off just switching everything off and coming back tomorrow. My strategy is self executing and every time I fiddle with it during a market event I screw it up.
So I don't mind that I can't get to BFX.

See the guy in the number two spot?
As per my previous posts on the subject, the current Board composition is a joke. One's had to resign, one's running a disgraced exchange and two of them are arguing in public by issuing conflicting statements. And meanwhile Bitcoin's developers are focussing on esoteric edge case problems rather than addressing the community's immediate and more pressing needs. It's an embarrassment.

Wut is this? 
I don't know if I understand the question. Is it about the current price (large green number) being above the lowest ask?This may look wrong, but the current price is the price of the last transaction that was executed. Since that time, a new sell offer was added to the order book, below that current price.
