as we all know mt gox is just one of many exchanges of bitcoins and no more...

yet this widespread anger with mt gox exposes that bitcoins is just a hanger-on to u.s. dollars, and cannot survive on its own.

Or maybe just that people's bitcoins are tied up in it, meaning they can't spend them? That aspect has nothing to do with USD.
