PS. Still hypothetically speaking, suppose that you own an exchange and your clients have entrusted you with 100.000 Bitcoins.

Suppose further that the Bitcoin price is 100$ and has been stable for a while.

Thus your company's current assets include a pile of bitcoins worth 10 million $.  But that is a totally unproductive asset, like having a pile of cash locked in a safe.

So you decide to sell most of those coins at other exchanges and invest the money into stocks or something that will yield a return.  You take care to leave a reserve in a "hot wallet" for the occasional withdrawals. You also pick an investment that can be quickly liquidated, so that you can buy back the coins you sold if the hot wallet is not enough.

But then there is a big unexpected  rally, and the Bitcoin price eventually stabilizes at 800$.   

Some of your clients eventually want to withdraw their bitcoins; some sell them at your exchange, for 800$, and want to withthdraw the money.

Either way,  you now owe 80 M$ to your clients, but still have only 10 M$ invested in stocks...

It's not the drops that worry me. It's the fact that i don't see a reason for it to go up anymore.

How much does anyone want to bet that this was Gox:

http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1wtbiu/how_i_stole_roughly_100_btc_from_an_exchange_and/

I saw these kinds transactions going through for months (strings of .0001 Btc). I thought they were just bots doing some random bullshit... what if they were doing this the whole time...

If I had fiat in my Virtex account, I'd be buying more now, before the price skyrockets.

If mtgox doesn't have their clients' bitcoins, wouldn't that be bullish? A lot of people will not have the number of bitcoins they thought they had.

Ultra-Bullish!

Their clients now can sell bitcoins that they don't have for money that they can't receive.
Expropriation and fraud are really good things for trust.

What could be more bullish?

It's impossible to sell your most BTC in other exchanges without crashing the market.

Gox should purcahse all of the FBI's coins in bulk.

I still don't really understand what that company was thinking. They had a golden goose, must have been making a fortune, but really screwed the pooch. Like hire another 5 customer services guys would you not, if you are profiting multi-millions a year and are the global leader (at one point).

The company leadership is either incompetent, or they did not pay the right people the right bribes are paying the price.

Anyways. Are we crashing right now?
