The people who are stealing bitcoins are only holding them becuase the price is not what they want they want to make the most money from their stolen bitcoins you know
and when they are selling them right now they are not making allot.
You are right about that they just want to hold the bitcoin so they can make some good profit it due to the fact that it has a great future and they know there is more profit..
I hope this people will most likely even lose there bitcoin..
