The 'last' time MtGox was hacked, they tried to crash the price of BTC's so that they could withdraw as many BTC's into offsite wallets. Back then, MtGox had a $1000 per day withdrawal limit which could be in $$$ or $1000 worth of BTC's.

The hackers tried to sell off a load of their stolen bitcoins at very low prices which saw the price of the bitcoin crash, and this allowed them to transfer a lot more bitcoins than they should have had off of the site.

Since the hack, MtGox also puts a fixed limit on the number of bitcoins you can withdraw per day.

Everyone can benefit from Bitcoins, as far as who benefits the most I would say "Day Traders". You don't have to mine or open a online store to make money from Bitcoins, I have just recently stared to mine Bitcoins on a small scale. I have however been trading Bitcoins on various markets for quite some time. I had no long term investments and I never had more money tied up in Bitcoins than I wanted to.

Those who practice arbitrage may benefit from price drops. Although it is more the volatility than the drop.

MtGox probably benefits more than anyone else from the volatility.

Me.  I made $37 in ~3 hours yesterday transferring my BTC to i0c, waiting for the price to go up, and then selling them.

I think businesses benefit from the price drop. Lower the price, and people are more likely to buy BTC and spend. The ability to buy things is the real value in BTC, not the price.

People worried about price are trying to make a quick buck. The reality is, if people start spending, as opposed to speculating, the price will go up in the long run.

MTGOX is a terrible exchange with poor security with an almost monopoly over trading volume.


Personally I think insiders on MTGOX may be making out very well on these drops

BTC is still a massive bubble until less then a dollar. There is little use for them an incredible selling pressure.
