I am very fortunate to have cashed out at the peak of this bubble. It's a damn shame mtgox is having these problems. I consider it to be a huge vulnerability of the system.

That said, many people are working on alternatives. It's a growing pain. I need to do more research but the concept behind this project looks very promising: https://github.com/macourtney/Dark-Exchange

Interesting but it looks pretty useless until they can figure out a solution to spam trades (people accepting their own fake trades and impacting the value of the currency), something that doesn't exist yet for now unfortunately, as they admit https://github.com/macourtney/Dark-Exchange/wiki/FAQ
