it's good that they bought at 30% higher price, this mean that current value is somehow safe, and the price will rise by 30% before any dump occur, because of that auction
Can you provide us the link to your claim that the bidders bought at 30% higher price ? As far as I concern, it's just a rumour
well yes just a rumor, i read it somewhere in the forum, don't remember know, there was a guy that said it
ok here you go

After the previous auctions took place, I've heard the price was actually lower than the market price.
It is bidding after all.. they might have been sold for $100 , otherwise, why would you bid higher then the market price ? (you always have the option to buy off the market..)
The US Marshals are less likely to scam their buyers, by that basis alone it would make sense to pay more.
Don't see how it's relevant, you have plenty of legit exchanges to buy from without paying 30 or even 10% above the market price.
They never payed over the market price imo if anything they paid quite abit under the price or about the same if that was the case that they was willing to pay higher, why would they? I mean they could have just set buy walls and brought what they needed over a week or 2 and paid quite abit less. They paid under market rate and so they should.
They could as well bid a lower price while at the same time also bid on an exchange, 2 bids have better chances to be filled than one bid
