China, that was a sizable sell, out of curiosity, how much did it affect the market price?

Despite what PHA would have you believe, it probably didn't effect things very much. Trading volume has been huge lately, I think about 100,000 BTC (on average) is changing hands every day.

1 hour later and my bitinstant deposit isn't that instant

It's easy to say man I wish I would of invested because any of us wish we would of now but not easy to fire several grand on these things.

Exactly. Even if I had bought at 10 there is no way I'm not selling at 50. So yes missed opportunity but its not like everyone is winning the lottery.

Its a penny stock gold rush worldwide. Throw in some gambling money and let it.ride..

Last price:$240.00000 High:$266.00000

my apologies if i just dont get how this works, but i fail to understand where exactly all the money represented by these prices came from.

if everyone sold all their bitcoins right this instant, where exactly would 2 point something billion dollars or whatever come from to pay them?

again, apologies if this is some really obvious, simple finance thing that im not grasping. 100% not my strong point.

also id like to point out that i used to play $250/$500 no limit holdem on sealswithclubs, apparently.

The US gov't will introduce a new bill to help stimulate the economy and will give each person $250 for their bitcoin. This will only occur if large campaign donators/friends/relatives of political power players were affected.

In order to sell a coin there needs to be a buyer. The exchanges of which mtgox is one of matches buyers to sellers. The buyers use real currency and receive a bitcoins in return. So the answer to your question is directly from the pre-existing assets of the buyers.

rofl holy shit, so basically the price could drop 20%, i could log in looking to panic sell, and find no buyers, and meanwhile the price continues to plummet.

oh sweet jesus thats magnificent.

Good answer, although you don't answer his exact question.

If everyone sold ALL their bitcoins right this instant...

The answer is this is likely impossible. It would start the catastrophic crash (ie. only the first 1% of bitcoins would likely get the $250/coin we see now then it would go down quickly) we all predict will happen sometime in the future. If someone sweeps in last minute to buy the rest of them, it will make the bitcoin useless if one person holds them all and the demand is gone.

Not sure if your entirely serious but maybe before you rush into this I'll explain why it won't work.

In any trading transaction there is always a spread between the buy (bid) price and sell (offer) price. In a highly liquid market this spread can be very narrow, but also any transaction is unlikely to make a significant price movement.

In an illiquid market (such as bitcoins) where there are more buyers than sellers (or sellers than buyers), the spread will increase, driving a price differential between buyer and seller. It is this price differential that ultimately drives a change in commodity price.

If you are just selling to yourself, then you might be able to move the price, but all you will end up doing is losing out on the spread. In fact if there are transaction fees you can only lose money.

It is possible to rig the market with enough effort and market poet, but this is pointless for a commodity with no intrinsic value.

Looks like it's taken a big dive down to 194. I was planning on selling at 300.

:hof

Can someone explain what caused this crash?

Or was it just a case of "$266 per coin?! GTFO!"

this is 100% pure conjecture but i think a lot of real heavy duty sharps figured with everyone planning on dumping at 300, they were going to dump at 290, and they did.

or dump at 250, or whatever, you get the idea.

The Feds are watching... lol

If a crash like such continues, it would make many wonder how "some" had such amazing timing in getting out.

MtGox getting slow now.

Cmoney is so amazingly right-on with all of his locks.

If he ever puts out a lock that I'm not going to live through the day, I'm immediately calling up all friends and relatives and saying goodbye.
