Title: Re: 'dat wall Post by: RyNinDaCleM on February 04, 2013, 12:15:30 PM wtf is going on with the wall at $21? where did it come from? You must not have seen the 50k walls before. This one is just ~19k Title: Re: 'dat wall Post by: Phoenix on February 04, 2013, 12:27:19 PM Some part of the "chinese excalibur" (avalon's proceeds) perhaps ?
Title: Re: 'dat wall Post by: Cluster2k on February 04, 2013, 12:57:31 PM It's just someone playing with the market. It's not a whole bunch of people suddenly all deciding that $21 is exactly where they want to be. Keep the market below $21, buy small lots. Remove 'wall' when the time comes and watch people bid higher. Dump bitcoins into the strength and repeat. It's beautiful to watch.

Title: Re: 'dat wall Post by: kjlimo on February 04, 2013, 02:12:21 PM I was equally surprised to wake up to this. However, $21 a bitcoin is quite a good deal considering how many ASIC miners will be dumping to deliver ROI in other currencies over the next few months...

Title: Re: 'dat wall Post by: humanitee on February 04, 2013, 02:50:44 PM So nobodies bought into it... and we're convinced it's real?

Title: Re: 'dat wall Post by: Vandroiy on February 04, 2013, 07:11:49 PM While ~0.2% of the market is not small, Gox is the market at this point. It's not an especially surprising order.
It's an open secret that there exist large BTC traders. IIRC, we've seen a single address that held 500k (!) BTC. Pirate once dumped 80k for the heck of it. That's four of these orders. (Admittedly, Bitcoin was a little crazier half a year ago -- we can all guess who ultimately paid for that funky move.)

I had an eye infection that day so looking at a monitor felt like being stabbed in the eyes. I could see the dump through a blur and my trading alarm went crazy, but all I could think of was pain. Missed a chance to buy coins at half price. Title: Re: 'dat wall Post by: ThickAsThieves on February 04, 2013, 10:25:06 PM dat wall is gone, very cool to watch how someone basically hit pause on the whole market value.
Safe to assume it was to buy all day? Title: Re: 'dat wall Post by: Luno on February 04, 2013, 10:27:03 PM Presumed so also!
