Ok. The MT Gox situation is a lesson for the whole BTCommunity to learn. We did. Now it is time to think about the future. It is clear that the current exchange model has flaws and it needs to evolve. We, the people in this community, are one of the smartest groups of people on the planet, yet this issue made us look like fools for a while, but that is the past. If when Mt. Gox returns to business we should all support it as usual, but, we need to start coding the new system ASAP.
This Topic is where the new Decentralized Exchange Service is Born.
Why create one central decentralized exchange, when you can just create many decentralized independent exchanges?
As an individual just don't use the monopoly (where the Lemmings go), but one of the other exchanges.
While I have a Mt. Gox account I did all my recent trades over Bitmarket and so I did not have to care about the Mt. Gox problems at all.
Unfortunately it seems that all the Lemmings are moving now to TradeHill. Instead of learning something from the Mt. Gox fail everyone switches to the same exchange waiting for the next crash.
