The way I see it, it's just someone playing the markets with skill and good execution. End of year, some cashing out, little liquidity around. Perfect timing. This might well be Masterluc's expected dip to 10k. Come 2018, I expect a significant retrace. End of January, I expect ATH-fest. February, we'll be in Carolina.

And the Ripple thingy - I like Torque's hunch. BTW Torque, it was in someone else's dream before you spelled it out plainly. Can't remember who the other poster was. Anyway, Ripple is a premined uncapped banking scam. We all know what it's ultimately worth. Wanna profit on it? Be quick and get out. Hold at your own risk.

C'mon guys, we've seen worse. I know I have, and some of you have been in the game longer than I. So stop whining and accumulate FFS!
