That could have just been trend selling. Just how big is that?

Insider Trading is great!!

It means that the more accurate price is reflected sooner... meaning that investors are not miss-lead longer.  (Meaning fewer bad investments are made).   ;D

If insider trading can be used to profit off attacks on bitcoin, it weakens the security of the system. In particular, it is the most likely incentive for the eventual 51% attack which will destroy the currency.
