Somebody sold big amounts of Bitcoin here and there and the price fell quickly from 1618$ to 1472$. The numbers I have are from Kraken, but it's not the only place with this behavior.
I'm curious what is going to happen next.
Kraken seriously lacks behind most other tradesites on recent spike. And market dynamics should level out huge price differences.
Arbitrage flows might be damaged. Tether withdrawals.
Just imagine:
1) Buying on Kraken, catching the dips
2) Selling on Bitfinex, into these spikes
3) move cash from Bitfinex to Kraken. Would require currency interchange from Euros into Dollars. USD/USDT trade & withdraw
4) Goto 1),
be seriously happy
