I don't time to check the arbitrage in details, but when

https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/siacoin/#markets

is marking those markets with **, then there is some problem for sure. Like GDAX and BCH price of 9000 recently.

I agree...but what do you think is going on?
Why is someone building those sell walls on Polo?

Just had a look on HitBTC and seeing the same wall... still new to all this but could that be done by one person to hold the price up while Bitcoin surges up and other alts are taking a drop? Sort of a way to block others from selling? i.e. put enough in there that you know based on trading volume it won't get eaten up until the BTC surge has plateaued? But then what... would they start break it off in smaller chunks to sell just below that or just remove them from the book and trading continues without a big sell off because the panic is over? Like I say completely new to this so just trying to watch and learn how order books get played

Bittrex Siacoin wallet is under maintenance.

Interesting right?

Indeed...as if they would not want people to transfer sia from polo to sell...but that doesn't make sense, either

Please don't make thread like that. Maybe you should do your own research a little bit. If nobody did then there is some problems with the exchange that prevent people to do because people in crypto space always do everything to earn some profit.
