I agree 100%. However a business isn't an individual. How am I suppose to make an informed decision where to trade my fiat for Bitcoins if all I can see about them is irrelevant when it comes to credibility of being an honest exchange business? How can I not fear it's a scam and they'll run with the money because they aren't making enough profit to dig themselves out of the investment hole? How am I suppose to have confidence their volume is going improve if I can't see that their clientele is actually growing or that they have an ever larger deposit volume..

Yes I'm all for personal privacy of any sorts. Business however isn't personal, in fact it's very public. And the best businesses don't hide much at all. They don't have to.

Right now all my Bitcoins are on mtgox, even though I'm happy they finally show their entire order book, not just a 7.something% up and down from spot like they did for a while, I still have no idea how many active accounts there are, how many dark orders there are, I'm certain they are making a profit by now, so I know they'll keep running but I have no idea if they actually have the funds they are suppose to have, I don't know if their user base is growing or shrinking, if they are receiving more deposits or see more withdrawals, I'm very much in the dark about most things about mtgox.

But because I see the liquidity and I know they are in the black by now by a huge margin and probably aren't likely to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs I settled to keep my money there. That's right, merely settled. But I'm just yearning for an exchange that would show everything they possibly could to move my money there because I feel the more information I have the better decisions I can make when I trade and I strongly believe the more stable the price would get. That's right. All this volatility and bubbles are the results of people trading almost blind. If mtgox gave us full transparency there would be significantly less of that.

So right now you can't convince me to switch away from mtgox, unless you can be more transparent, their liquidity simply outweighs anything you could possibly offer, except that.
