I know the market would get all sorts of fucky, but I'm asking about what specific kinds of fuckyness would happen?

You can wipe out bitstamp's entire order book with a mere 32K BTC. One can imagine what 1 million BTC would do.

Nakamoto does not need to dump... he only need to show he is in control of the private key .. ( for people he trust obviously ) it all can be done off line ...

Rep Thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=381041
If one can not confer upon another a right which he does not himself first possess, by what means does the state derive the right to engage in behaviors from which the public is prohibited?

It would be a wild ride, but when prices are below $50/BTC (for example), there will be no shortage of buyers for (almost) any amount of supply.

I think Bitstamp and BTC-E owners will simply ban to sell such large amount (Bitcoin price collapse will destroy their businesses).

It would remove a huge amount of USD liquidity. Add to that the panickers, and lack of available fiat and you would be forced into a new price range. It would take time to get "back to normal". It would not be "to da moon" immediately after either

I read somewhere that if you send Satoshi a satoshi then he will give you a bitcoin in 10 years time.

There is as many buyers as sellers. So I guess some people instead of sitting on this forum are buying right now.
