Bitstamp/Bitfinex is crazy. People will just randomly buy or dump 1000 coins at market and absorb massive slippage when they could have saved about $20 grand if they juat spent a little more time making their trade.
Could be just margin calls from finex Out of nowhere in a stagnant market?

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

This is the mystical hedge fund rumor from yesterday: From Dan Primack at Fortune:
Bitcoinana: In September we discussed how SecondMarket had launched the first U.S.-based investment vehicle dedicated exclusively to Bitcoin, called The Bitcoin Investment Trust (beating out the Winklevii, who remain stuck in regulatory limbo). Now comes word that Fortress Investment Group is prepping its own Bitcoin fund, which likely will be much larger than the SecondMarket offering.
Details remain scarce, although there are some rumors that some info could be revealed tonight at the Bitcoin New Year’s Eve Bash down on Broad Street (yes, this is an actual thing). But it is worth noting that Fortress earlier this year acquired Koru Ventures, a provider of patent-backed loans to tech companies, in order to launch an IP finance group. Among Koru’s principals (and new Fortress employees) was Steven Waterhouse (ex-CTO of RPX Corp.), whose LinkedIn profile yesterday said that he had just become a partner on an unnamed Bitcoin fund. After I sent Waterhouse an email requesting more info – and also placing a call with Fortress – the Bitcoin mention disappeared from his LinkedIn page (replaced only with “TBD”).
My understanding, however, is that the Fortress effort will be something like a currency ETF (similar to Bitcoin Investment Trust), but that Fortress also may raise a separate vehicle to back Bitcoin-related startups. And there likely is some relationship to a new Bitcoin-related fund raised by Pantera Capital, a San Francisco-based hedge fund whose clients are known to include several Fortress executives. Pantera founder Dan Moorehead declined to discuss his Bitcoin efforts or relationship to Fortress – including if his effort and the Fortress fund were one in the same – but an SEC filing indicates that he already has raised around $150 million, and Pantera recently participated in a VC round for crypto-currency payment network Ripple Labs. Moreover, calls to Pantera’s main number are now met with a voicemail that only identifies the firm as “Pantera Bitcoin.”

I think it might even be better to have the triangle upside-down so as to fit in the valley between bids and asks

More merchants make for more money flow. So yes It is bullish, even if you disagree. A merchant converting to fiat does not reduce that flow, it just doesn't add to it as much as when the merchant uses it in their supply chain. Then it increases the flow further. It is a difference between a +1 and a +2 not the difference between a 0 and a +1.
The relevant equation for valuation is PQ = MV. Learn it, love it, live it. To determine the value of the money supply (the circulating funds, not the total theoretical supply, thank you Gresham) M=PQ/V. The higher the velocity of money, the lower the value of each monetary unit. The intuitive explanation is that the more things you can buy with a unit, the less the unit is worth. Re-using the same unit means that it buys more stuff. Of course this is only true once money velocity achieves orbit, but after that it is certainly and always true. It is similar to the ideal gas law in that respect (and in many other respects). My intuition about M=PQ/V disagrees with your characterization. The higher V, the smaller M (the total money supply). Smaller M means less money in circulation, means each individual unit is more valuable. Of course, you can't just change V and keep PQ constant, so it's pretty much just an academic exercise to consider.
