marlath explains: The bid wall dropped and the dump started at exactly 2:06:18 EST. He posted that 'good night' message at 2:06:28 EST. ( http://pastebin.com/PthgrzDS) He had a full ten seconds to paste that message. This is how this pirate has conned everyone into thinking he is anything but BS. He has a websocket client that isn't lagged like the popular html5 ones are, and simply waits for the action on that to start and then announces that he caused it. Everyone using some browser based feed doesn't see the drop until after he saw it and announced it hoping people wouldn't notice that his announcement comes long after the actual move he claims credit for.

This. Remember this guys: Perhaps we should add this general rule to the bitcoin community safety guidelines: If some guy jumps ups and down, waving his hands frenetically and claims he's THE ONE, don't give him your bitcoins!! ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

I don't actuall buy this... I was watching a live (web socket) stream of fox AND in IRC (seem my constant messages about ;ticker being lagged) and when pirate pasted the link to the nickelback song "burn it to the ground" is when the drop happened. The timing was far too perfect to be coincidence IMHO.

Unless we have cold hard evidence(TM) from mtgox, pirate is just making shit up.
Sounds like something he would do, too, just to fuck with everyone. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Some people find it easy to fuck around with other people's money, apparently.

Only the biggest of idiots would keep a market supported if their plans needed a minimal premium to their offerings.
Oh look, BTC is trading at 9.00 - manipulation my ass.
Sorry, but this thread belongs in a penny stock pumper forum, not bitcoin.

Don't waste your time trying to reason with these idiots who were taught to believe and insist upon what they want to believe rather than arrive to a conclusion based on what is logical. Seriously, don't.

Here's some psychology for you.
#1) People don't like to believe that some regular guy can just ask for a whole ton of BTC, receive them, and start manipulating an entire market.
Counter-point to #1) It is absolutely possible for this to happen, both mathematically and based upon market psychology.
#2) People don't like to believe that some regular guy can make at least 7% a week. After all, most people here aren't making 7% per week, especially if you're not investing with Pirate or a pass-through.
Counter-point to #2) It is absolutely possible for this to happen. I've made 2000% in about 8 months from trading alone. That 2000% doesn't include mining profits, product sales, or service sales. Nor was it a full time job. It was day trading. And it was only on two exchanges. And neither was Mt. Gox.
3) People don't like to believe that one guy manipulating the market is even possible.
Counter-point to #3) Yes, it really really is. Bitcoin is a small community and only a small % of all Bitcoin users are actively watching or trading on the markets at any given time. All you need is capital and balls and you can make the market your bitch.
4) People don't like to think Pirate can do this by himself.
Counter-point to #4) He's not. He's supported by his lenders and his buyers. He's found a niche between markets and there are many people involved. But, he is the central node of pass-through capital. As such, he can manipulate/control the market, but to believe he is doing it alone is a mistake. It's because so many people are involved that he can make 7% happen quite easily.
Seriously, why is it so hard to believe Pirate did this?

Yep +1. The high prices would be a plus to him, as he's earning a percentage of the deposits (according to him).

If I had that much capital, I would do it. And, I'm seriously considering starting something similar. But, I need to decide whether or not I want to pull the trigger....

When you dump at higher prices, you get USD. And repeat. In your example, yes, he's messed up when the price pushes to 8 after he sold at 6.9. So, instead he pumps the price to $9.50 (or $9.69) and sells to...oh, I don't know, $7.50?

If pirate is running ponzi, why would anyone believe a single word he is saying? In that case, by definition, whatever he say must be considered as a potential lie. Now, if he is not running ponzi, why the hell he needs to say anything at all? Now get around that simple logic.

exactly, IMO pirateat40 is stuck in an impossible situation
idk I'm most likely wrong, but what he did yesterday shows us his game plan and we see that its not a good plan
Can you clarify? pirateat40 has taken a stand 9$ is the top, and hes got to convince everyone to fallow him back down bellow 7 even if he gets it going down (even below 6!), he will need to buy back. He'll be trying to buy back on the cheap along with everyone else, and who's going to sell us all these coins? maybe hes been trying to keep the price down ever since 6 point crazy.... I hope he is able to push the price down, I would love to buy another few hundred coins below 6 ( I have a few friends that want in if it goes back down ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) ) The liquidity on the ask side simply isn't their for him to buy back on the cheep. i might get lucky and be able to grab a few hundred tho ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) trying to push the price down , he is the liquidity on the ask side right now once he gets it to < 7, and removes his asks walls their will not be enough bitcoin on the ask side to satisfy his needs and everyone is going to jump allover them don't you just love it when shit hits the fan? ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

marlath explains: The bid wall dropped and the dump started at exactly 2:06:18 EST. He posted that 'good night' message at 2:06:28 EST. ( http://pastebin.com/PthgrzDS) He had a full ten seconds to paste that message. This is how this pirate has conned everyone into thinking he is anything but BS. He has a websocket client that isn't lagged like the popular html5 ones are, and simply waits for the action on that to start and then announces that he caused it. Everyone using some browser based feed doesn't see the drop until after he saw it and announced it hoping people wouldn't notice that his announcement comes long after the actual move he claims credit for. This is possible. It's difficult to tell exactly what preceded what from comparing the charts to the IRC log. (assuming the log times are correct, anyway). Where could one find reliable data on the market events, including orderbook movements?
