I've being arbitraging a Ripple clone, Stellar, lately and leaving aside aversion towards the centralized trust both these coin demand working with these coins is a real pleasure. Instant transactions. Optional paymentIDs. Is it really hard to come with non-centralized PoS coin who would work as well as these centralized ones? Would be an instant hit.

A famous Chinese investor announces that he bought "some" XRP. Just an obvious pump-and-dump

so yet again someone puts 2k+ coins on Stamp and Finex and pushes the price down on Huobi, who the hell can afford to sell 5k coins every few days for weeks? It's like he waits for the last batch to clear to the bank before selling another 5k+

or..........it's different people.

Miners. They make 6 * 24h * 25BTC = 3600BTC/day. They have to sell them to cover the cost of electricity + equipment.

Yes. I think this is a factor with the development of huge asic farms.
BitFury are supposedly dumping what they mine. Their hash rate is up >60% in 1 month.



This, plus the bitcoin-accepting merchants which convert to fiat immediately (while old hoards are spent more than new ones built up), create the downward pressure at the present time.

good thing the miners of 2010 still have to sell   for their electricity bills right? ..

not all miners are new guys.. them old guys have many buffer left..    
most miners mentality is not to sell if they dont have to..   if they did.. market price would be  1$

All i see is 1 or 2 whales pushing price down   for months.   when they get stuck.. they pump it up. until market  slows down ..   then putting walls on top of it.. and push down again..       they gonne do this until they are loaded with cheap coins.. or until market sais  : halt..

i think we are at the halt phase.. 450 ish.

Lot of miners have bought their equipment using btc, so they want to earn btc not usd. Also, lot of miners don't sell everything they make, at this price, you have to be quite desperate to sell the coins.

The miners need to unionize!

Lots of panic in here. Fear palpable. Trolls reactivated.

Stay calm people! We have to go down before we can decisively reverse and get the momo traders onboard.

Final capitulation on sight.
Prices falling.
We are going nowhere but down.
Lose all your hope

And just when all hope seemed lost, Bitcoin did what Bitcoin does: what no-one expects

[antibitcoinconsortium]

sell wall is growing by the minute
expect big drop today $430 should be reasonable.

Perhaps then you can buy in and STFU

16K BTC to $600 VS 17.5K to $100 @ Bitstamp... really comforting.
