"Well, d'uh, of course it was good news. The worst run exchange in the BTC ecoystem *finally* went down. That's what brought us to the new ATH of 6000."
I don't strongly agree or disagree with anything your saying except this. gox being gone is not going to lead us to $6000 per bitcoin, or really any rise in price, lol. Not one person invests in bitcoin because gox is gone. gox probably wouldn't stop anyone from investing in bitcoin until now. Maybe some people will celebrate by buying a little for the good occasion, but it is no reason to make the price go up.
