Poll:  When will the 200,000 BTC from Gox hit the exchanges and plummet prices?

When will the market get hit with these coins and how low will prices be?

OP, several of your poll choices are odd, if not trolling. And how can a forum dweller know when?
Only the people closely involved with MtGox can make an educated guess.

What I can say is that lawyers probably won't cost more than 1 - 2 M$ / year, so only a small fraction of known MtGox funds
will be spent on lawyers. I know because I was involved in a patent lawsuit in the USA and 1 - 2 M$ / year for a mid-range law firm
(actually upper-range, based in Washington DC) is the norm, in Japan prices are probably in the same ballpark.

From the poll choices is see that people hope that the situation will be resolved soon, but if it's up to Karpeles, it just won't.
He repeatedly lied to his customers, and the only hope is that the authorities will force him to do the right things.

I guess they just distribute it over the ppl who lost their btc there.
After that i dont expect a plummet, why would they sell?

We'll see a dip in BTC prices and the exchanges that are around will probably have more BTC sitting in them. Unless, those people with BTC at Gox learned their lesson and store their coins in cold storage.

Probably already on BFX, selling at 563 now.  Been dumping for about 36 hours so far.

The only rational reason to do this is because of a court order (or someone else with a gun to your head), because without an extortionate threat, no sane person would leave so much money on the table.
