Most 15-min volume since noon EDT on Friday, and we just hit 475.
Sell walls on BFX keep getting eaten... This dump has no legs.

Sell walls on BFX keep getting eaten... This dump has no legs. I dunno. I keep thinking that. At this point, he's gotta be gunning for the margins... can't just be a goofy theory anymore.

If Bitcoin will continue to fall for a few more weeks/months the ALT-scene will get nearly wiped out. I will shed no tears
Yes, it is such a feast now for the ones buying alts that are independent of BTC, yet get double hammering due to BTC. Monero comes to mind

Monero comes to mind  Darkcoin and Cloakcoin have been getting killed much more lately. Monero just needs that darn monerochain.info fully synced again ASAP so the market cap figures are correct, then I'll be happy. It's moving slow -- up to 3 months ago at the moment.

These are tough times, but if you have even a little cash you'll make it back on the inevitable bounce back. Do not despair, friend.

Unable to buy on BFX  That f---ing site. I swear to God. Couldn't short earlier today... you're saying you can't buy now. Jeebus. P.S. -- No, I don't think they are a scam or Gox... there are just some issues and you also get nickled and dimed pretty well. But, like everything else, a work in progress.

Unable to buy on BFX  They may have effectively spotted you some cheaper coins, though (my situation didn't have quite the same happy ending, unfortunately). It looks like the margin hunting dumptard and his sell wall have returned to the scene.

Unable to buy on BFX  What do you mean? does it say "insufficient balance"? what happens? Bitfinex is showing many red flags lately  I have a very sufficient balance. I try to buy on margin lower than my balance, it says "order has been placed" but only buys .002 btc for me when Im ordering a lot more. The fact that order goes through, but only buys a tiny bit, and doesn't show the rest pending is frustrating. Second attempt with my balance pretty much unchanged it says "order has been placed" and nothing goes through at all. After repeated attempts I moved all of my funds out of there. Maybe the Margin Hunter is clogging their system lol. /rant

Bitfinex altered the regular offer/demand equilibrium by tweaking the trading algorithm, it was granted that market, by means of someone more clever than them, found a way to exploit it. They also declared they're constantly changing it, i guess out of fear, but it seems market is adapting faster than they could handle. In another thread ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=737507.msg8335904#msg8335904) i guessed that August could be the right month to perform a cheap(er) manipulation. But a question now arise, who actually have: - the statistical knowledge to determine the right moment to perform (which include near perfect market statiscal mapping and geolocalization of users and their trading habits) - a valid reason to do it - the economic power to perform My guess is another exchange, or a cartel of them.
