An early adopter cashed out 17K+ BTC all at once, driving price down from 20 to 13. It's back up to 18+ now.
May I ask how you know this? Were you watching the price feed when this happened? I wish I could've seen that in action if what you say is true. However, I'm surprised this supposed early adopter dumped so many all at once. Wouldn't it have been much smarter if he sold in small amounts over a period of time. |

Well true getting payd is gettin payd...but surely he would've realized he could've gotten MORE if he slowly sold on each market peak. I guess the whole time value of money applies...a bird in hand is worth two in the bush..yadda yadda

Dude this down-spiral has been quite the windfall for people with the ability to trade on more than one exchange.
Meaning that bitcoin is just a bit more alive than a few days ago.
Alive= volatile
volatile= more chances for first time investors that can keep their.... together.
This is a lot of investors wet dream come true provided that they have access to multiple exchanges.

more power to him/her. 1. get BTC at 0.03 USD 2. wait for inevitable price gains. 3. profit! eh - so instead of $30, he/she got $20 - do you think that with a buy-in price of a typical (very) early adopter, it would matter? wouldn't to me. it'll be old history in 24 hours... |

Good. That will diversify funds a little more. |

I was watching and It looked like several big buy orders were cancelled and then someone dumped a large sell at the same time. Clear and successful attempt to cause a selloff. |

Currently peeps should pay more attention to diversifying between different exchanges right at this moment I can see price differences of over 3USD/BTC just waiting to be snapped up. This panic is just opening up the market for more opportunities.
A Mt Gox semi monopoly is going to cause these wild fluctuations no matter what, so diversify in terms of trading options and you'll make cash even in a temporary down spiral just like this one and come out with the additional cash to push values back up again.

Bought some today at 20, 21 and 22 USD/BTC and I think I have made pretty good deal.  |
