Any news?
Insider getting ahead of the market? My guess some people on Gox making good money, maybe new funds that arrived, and the idiots on Stamp following them going omg buuuuuy omg sell!! Going by charts (Huobi, Stamp, and Gox), it looks like China had a little rise. Bitstamp followed. Then some on gox followed, and that triggered a full on "omg news?" rally. Then people realized nothing happened and proceeded to sell again

OK, again, here is what I would do if I had to safely store several hundred thousand bitcoins that my clients gave me for safekeeping.
First, I would create a dozen new addresses and distribute the bitcoins evenly among them. I do not believe in trapdoor functions, and I know what NSA did to that random number generator; so I instead of any "modern" encryption I would use the old and guaranteed one-time-pad method. I would generate a file of truly random bits (say, extracted from the microphone signal), and XOR it with the private keys. Then I would copy the result to a pen drive, check that the copy succeded, safely remove the pendrive (see, I learned my lesson!) I would repeat with a second pendrive and give it to my partner. Then each of us would go to a different bank, on separate cars, and store his pendrive in a safe deposit box. Only then I would go back and reformat the hard drive of my computer.
Do I really need to add the "stupid smiley" here?)

Those are high security steps. If you were obsessive about security, a good prior step would be to build a fresh vm with a restrictive firewall on which to perform the manipulations. A good posterior step would be to break up both the pad and the keys using turbo codes and distribute them over a number of pendrives, such that e.g. any three of nine suffice to reconstitute the data, and treat them similarly. In a business, however, security measures must be designed to optimize under constraints, requirements, which these extremist schemata do not accomodate.
