I left Gox for good in July after a couple of months defending them... But things just kept getting worst. Bitstamp doesn't feel as the most secure place in the world neither, while withdrawals work just well daytrading and keeping serious founds on third party services is still a high risk practice in the BTC world. I won't do it until a serious alternative is launched, for sure the opportunity is huge for those who manage to build a SERIOUS service.
SecondMarket is likely to launch a serious exchange. Even if gox gets its out of its web of legal and software problems it will fade away.
