Yeah I've had this feeling for a long time now, probably since last year where it seemed that someone was trying to keep the price down just as it was recovering from the Gox debacle, that's why I've been elsewhere for the last few months, it was too sad to watch  

Edit:
You can see how they have been smashing the 3d MACD since June last year. They've managed to keep it under for a year, but it looks like things have been changing since that big red dildo on Jan 14th.


Well, that's my theory anyway.
