no bitstamp asks on bitfinex orderbook
seems bitfinex is out of stampUSD
EDIT: even says it right there: "Not enough USD reserve on Bitstamp, you cannot buy on Bitstamp at the moment."

china and gox are desperate to make a sustained climb, but stamp is asleep at the wheel.
The Bitcoin world needs more arbitrageurs...

There seems to be a rough price / volume divergence still.

Ya.. if wasn't for China, I'd say a lot of resistance again. If China plows through though it'll prob be pretty uneventful.
I believe before this last "correction", China went as high as like $430 USD at one point.

The btcchina ATH is 2630¥, currently worth $431.75. Absolute insanity.
I've never seen arbitrage opportunities this big. You could drive a truck through bitstamp/btcchina. It's all so surreal.
It went from 2100 to 2600 within a couple of hours though. Absolutely crazy. Everyone was screaming "sell". You know tops when you see them.
We're getting quite a bit of arbitrage from Westerners too; overseas wires are cheap and fast, but a limited resource.
Could you share an effective strategy for Westerners?
I'm still under the impression that if I was to sell on btcchina, I'd be unable to recover my money. I have considered selling and waiting for the bubble to subside (and the arbs to trend back to zero), then exchanging back to BTC and into USD, but I'd much prefer a more direct system.
I PMed you. You basically need contacts willing to use their personal 50K USD conversion. The problem is, people willing can just arb the gap themselves.

Is Bitfinex truly considered trustworthy? 50% APR sounds good but it seems like every kind of financial market or scheme yet invented for Bitcoin has imploded one way or another.
It is among traders.
APR's would be lower, if it weren't for people eating them up the second they're offered.

The massive and persistent arbs between the btc markets is proof positive that the fiat system is a dinosaur.
True, though I think China's draconian remittance rules also have something to do with it.
It's also proof positive that big players with eyes on the Bitcoin ecosystem would prefer to hold the coins than exploit the enormous arbs.
Man, wish Bitfinex APRs weren't 200+% now.. insane.
We should tell so Bitcoin haters about Bitfinex, and how they can deposit some fiat and loan it to us idiots and make 50% APR easy.. They wouldn't need to ever even touch bitcoins!

Ya, they just started going straight vertical..
Gox lagged behind like 40 bucks for a while, then someone intelligent thought to dump in USD to trigger the sell off (since obv China was bubbling and awaiting a catalyst).
