So how do we know that some whale or whales weren't planning on buying 50K coins or more on the open market and instead are buying them at auction? In other words, How do we know that this sale isn't already priced into the market? It's not like this auction is a surprise or anything.
If it ain't, then why is it still in the talks and making people think they will see some hikes because of this? Everyone's talking about the roller-coasters, I think we should let them talk and the naked price action will speak soon.  You are true, there's actually nothing surprising as there are exchanges where whales can buy those many coins without just going for an auction and harm their anonymity... At best there is a small risk reduction after the auction is finished, the fiat paid and everyone is happy. That means, after the completion, sell the news. But sell what? Bitcoin or dollars?

Anyone putting up this kind of capital is a serious invester. No one is going to buy these and dump them right away.

Maybe never.

Anyways, I think this one's the last, and so expecting something very much unexpected.

I am familiar with this auction. But I am not sure if this event is already over already? And I can tell you that auctions are pretty tricky. After all you can buy something not so cheap when there are strong competition going. So bitcoins obtained that way could be not so cheap...
Last time it was a blind auction. We don't know the winning bid even today. Though I'm thinking Tim Draper probably regrets it a little. Last time he only bought 2k. But the first time...

I wouldn't be so sure I see that barrier of $285 is too much for now. Bitcoin is way under $300 threshold since couple months now. Some really optimistic news are needed to bring back trust in bitcoin.

All right, 1 post Beartrolls back in full force! I feel the balance in the force restored now....
The Wall Observer thread is returning to normalcy. Let's see how long they stick around for after this auction...

Look at this wonderful cup&handle pattern.   Target is $380 within 3 weeks from now. Write this down and check back later.
