I suspect #4 Getting Money In or Out is the only one that matters. There have been problems getting USD into Mt.Gox for most of the week. Now with the weekend upon us the trickle of new funds has become a drip. There are no shortage of people in the forums looking to buy bitcoin with paypal, trying to get in before all the bank wires on Monday. I expect it will be back up to around 20 USD by Tuesday. Regardless of the cause, big swings like this don't exactly help it's cause in becoming a widely used currency.
