Somebody sold off 5,000 + coins this afternoon for around a million dollars driving the price from $260 to $150 $105 in a matter of hours.
Kind of sobering if you consider how many people have stashes with 20k or 30k.

Isn't that standard procedure for IPO's? The guys that got to the business in early own most of the shares.

I read it was a 60,000BTC trade. True story, I woke up this morning and considered selling (it was about 250USD). Didn't do it. Don't feel bad at all. Somebody sold off 5,000 + coins this afternoon for around a million dollars driving the price from $260 to $150 $105 in a matter of hours.

I watched a free diving and surfing show today, it's exciting and fun. The price is going to restore in 2 days at the most.

Free market is free. Everyone for themselves... Anyone with resources could have cashed out, and now cashed back in or at later point...

I guess on the plus side, there are a lot of bitcoins spread around to more people now - and it seems we're bouncing back, so far.

Why shouldn't they be allowed to sell, they sold into an order book full of people wanting to buy. The only shame here is that gox couldn't process it fast enough so it dragged on for hours.

Somebody sold off 5,000 + coins this afternoon for around a million dollars driving the price from $260 to $150 $105 in a matter of hours. Do only 5000 coins have such an impact on the price...?
