You're framing the question wrong.  The choice is not "sell @ loss now or sell @ profit later."  It's  "sell @ big loss now or @ [possibly] bigger loss later."

and because of that twisted logic you are betting that all goxers that get something back with sell immediately?

a good question is who makes the decision @ the US marshall office when and how much to sell? Is it a market driven decision?

I guess its some kind of an auction. The starting price is $5 per bitcoin. Whoever bids the most takes all of the 50,000 bitcoins

Perhaps but so far both times they did it basically reached a bit below market price
I mean is anyone responsible for them selling at a particular time(price) ? Why not sell everything at once?

1. Many claim exchanger volume is not a 100% representation of reality
2. 1000 coins traded 5 times create 5000volume
3. Today's volume is high unlike few days ago
