1) Regulatory issues are a big question mark.
2) There isn't actually that much volume compared real electronic exchanges. Just looking at the Mt Gox page from today it looks like $30MM USD worth of bitcoins have been traded. Hard to make any real money off of that.
- fnordfnordfnord 14y agoIf it was a sure bet that doing it would make you rich tomorrow, don't you think there would be scores of people racing to get it done? It's hard to find fruit hanging this low, if coinlab doesn't get it, I have a feeling someone will.

Just looking at the Mt Gox page from today it looks like $30MM USD worth of bitcoins have been traded. Hard to make any real money off of that. While it might have much less volume compared to a "real" exchange, MtGox fees are 0.6% of each transaction. $180k daily revenue is certainly "real money" for a startup.
