There's a premium that would need to be paid for someone to acquire 30K.. look at the USMS Auction. To show a 30K wall would be completely stupid unless, of course, it's just designed to scare people. It's working.
Exactly. And anyone scared into selling will be selling to him (and others who are accumulating). I think it's bullish

miner need to eat too you know Beware: that chart is buggy, the last data point is often garbage. And there is no one at blockchain.info to fix it, apparently. True, it happened already, but glitched always to the downside and in a much dramatic way. This one seems plausible (still scary) check coinorama, go to the 1 day chart, some farms went online yesterday/today and broke 500 ph/s o_O btw. if you look at stamp, i see pretty much only buys. with a ratio of like 20+ btc buys to 1 btc sell, what does this mean? It means the wall owner is buying below 320

I think Adam was right about circle, looks like there's regular buys started on bitfinex.
I doubt that there have been very many buys on Circle. I signed up for a circle account, and to verify my bank account will take 2-3 days. Of course, I could buy immediately with a credit card, but I am NOT going to buy with a credit card b/c I am NOT going to take the chance of paying outrageous cash advance fees (which are likely through my CC). Accordingly, IMHBO it will take a few days before the mass adoption of Circle will result in actual purchasing of coins. I was able to link a debit card to my Circle account. I haven't made a purchase yet but I'm sure others have used this type of card successfully

Anyone knows loaded's stance on bitcoin these days?
I know he had a shit load of coins, probably around 80k
Must feel pretty shitty to lose all that money when price is going down lol. unless he sold
He bought the majority of his coins WELL below these prices. 40K of them are still in one address, that I think he still owns, unless he sold them all at once 11 months ago before the bubble. https://blockchain.info/address/14j6jLececs66ZQ8ew6vTFNiEn2NupacWJHe only verified his ownership of the 40k in that address and if they're still in the same address then he must still own them. He was also managing another 160k for other people. Would be interesting to hear from him again It was always fun when he made an appearance and Bam! 4-5000 coins would be bought shortly after. He was a trading signal

weren't there some blockchain visualising tools developed around the mtgox implosion? They might be able to graph these movements a bit better.....anyone know them?
You can use the tree view for a transaction at blockchain.info to see how it propagates to new addresses. Try https://blockchain.info/tree/64385545 for example. Unfortunately, unless you know the ownership of the addresses it doesn't help a lot. I'm sure there is someone cleverer than me who might be able to work it out

I don't really understand this anxiety to find out who SN is: in my opinion anyone with an average knownledge on cryptocurrency and e-cash understands that there is 75% chance that Satoshi Nakamoto is Nick Szabo... And who cares, really? As I wrote years ago: It is painfully obvious that Nick is one of the main (if not THE main) inspirators of Satoshi's work. Nick is the inventor of the "smart contracts" concept and he developed extensive work on blockchain-like decentralized ledgers; his bit-gold is simply "bitcoin beta", but he is not even cited as a reference on the Bitcoin whitepaper, and Satoshi NEVER commented/posted on Szabo's work - the only plausible reason for such ommission is OPSEC/compartimentalization (never mix your pseudonym with your real identity). Similarly, Szabo never wrote about Bitcoin, despite it is clearly the system he has been writing about from 1996 to 2005. Every question to Szabo about BTC was duly ignored until the pressure was so high that he was forced to write a short post dismissing being SN with vague statments, but the truth is that he never really wrote/commented about Bitcoin, even if it is the obvious realization of years of his work. Additionally, the last paper on e-currency he wrote was published in 2005, and his very last comment on that matter (which was the central part of his work for at least 9 years) was published on his blog in 2008, shortly before the bitcoin paper was published.
Add to that the extreme similarities in their writing style, political views, etc. - and you have a match.
Again: who cares? Do we need a hacker to know that Szabo Nick is (very likely) Satoshi Nakamoto? No, we just need to read Szabo's work and the Bitcoin whitepaper ... But as no one knows who "Szabo Nick" is and no picture of him exists, you just replace the pseudonym "Satoshi Nakamoto" with another pseudonym ... Well there is one, from 1997: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BldQ7P2CEAAbtQm.png:large

wait a minute.. if satoshi really made that order from cardreaderfactory, why the hell would he use his satoshi e-mail address? cardreaderfactory would basically know it was him, plus his mailing address. he's not that stupid, it just sounds too fishy.
+1 it's one thing to make a mistake, but this would be on a completely different level fwiw they do accept Bitcoin so? if he makes an order, they will see it from satoshin@gmx.com, and it will display his name. and then they'd have his name and address. besides that, there is no reason for him to use satoshin@gmx.com .. he could use literally any other e-mail, and there'd be no risk (and there's nothing to be gained from purchasing through satoshin@gmx.com). Another thing is at the time he placed that order bitcoins were priced at around $100. He's sitting on close to a million bitcoins (supposedly) so they would have been valued at around $100,000,000. And we're expected to believe he bought a $200 mining rig? Why would he? And reveal his real name and physical address which he had gone to great lengths to protect? I find it hard to believe
