The link in the article has BTC at $65 right now and http://realtimebitcoin.info has it at $124.90. How is that possible?

Edit-

It looks like http://realtimebitcoin.info is using mtgox for their data, which explains the discrepancy.



That site is pulling data from Mt.Gox, the largest exchange. Mt.Gox suspended trading a few hours ago, and has been showing a "last price" of $124.90 since. On other exchanges (where trading is not suspended), the price is currently hovering at $60-$65.

Mt.Gox reopens at 02:00 UTC. (This comment was written at approx 22:25 UTC, so when this comment is about 3.5 hours old. When that happens, I predict, all hell will break loose.
