Cashing out wouldn't effect price though. Only the selling part, which could have been done before verification. It's just as safe to assume people are signing up to buy BTC.  And perhaps it's a safer assumption. Why? Because I'd think that if you bought BTC off the grid, chances are you'd sell it off the grid just as well, and not everyone is a miner that has BTC to sell that was generated. But charts will tell, should be interesting either way you look at it.
