I just might be!

I would tend to somewhat disagree. What I expected is that Bitfinex price would keep rising while the other exchanges kept going down or not moving at all due to increased sell pressure (getting Bitcoins out of Finex and selling them on other exchanges). However, the problems with Bitfinex also came around the time that Bitcoin essentially went "viral" in Japan along with the ruling that it is a legal means of payment. Right now, the spread between Bitstamp and Bitfinex is: ~80$, which is ~4.9%. This is much lower than it used to be (percentage wise). It was around 7-8% IIRC.
