Title: Estimate of how many bitcoins have felt into the wrong hands ? (pirate40 & al ?)

It would seems a small part of pirate40's bitcoins could have been enough to cause the massive dump we've seen the last few days.

Pirate40 500k ?
MyBitcoin ?
Bitcoinica ?
else ?

Uhm, you know that you can just track the addresses linked to pirateat40s operations? Unless he laundered them (which he likely didn't) you can still trace them on the block chain right now. Same with the known "heists" where transactions were published.

Just do your research and see for yourself if these funds ended up at an exchange...

What do you mean "wrong" hands?  ???

The coins are obviously exactly where the invisible hand guided them, which makes them the right hands.
