Interesting, OP.
So he got OTC then.
We can conclude it was the weak hands who drove the price down.
Now, who will drive it up? There are good news around, but this market is weak.
Fact is that most people want to have their money controlled by banks and governments. They buy bitcoin only for a quick profit. If the profit dont come in just some days, they sell at the first bad news they find. They dont want to hold for years, or to spend their btc to buy stuff. In other words, they dont want to wait.
I want to make clear this:
Im not sure if they are saying the truth or not, and I have no idea if they went OTC already. It's just what the official statement says, and if we are to believe that the official statement is the truth, then yes, people panic sold only because they read it on a couple websites. What we know for a fact is that the coins moved, what we don't know is if they were sold at these dates or not. It seems people panic sell whenever a big address moves coins, so if satoshi ever MOVES, only MOVES coins, it would be the same, people would panic sell because they would assume he is selling, while if I was satoshi, I would never sell, but I would definitely move the coins elsewhere so people stop controlling my wealth. But at this point im sure he is smart enough to do nothing.
