Yep people get scared easily today

Big exchange like Gox falling down is a big thing. 744,000 BTC stolen is also a very big thing. Who says this can't happen again with one of the other big exchanges?

This is why we need a decentralized exchange, owned by nobody.   The Mastercoin Foundation is creating the first.  And I am quite certain there are more in the pipeline.

Centralized exchanges will be a remnant of the beginning stages of Bitcoin.  

Growing pains.  Stay the course.  Much good to come.
