Is it a coincidence that he "quits" his search, and then 80,000 Bitcoin that were untouched since the Satoshi-era were moved?

I'm a bit puzzled what kind of odd connection you try to draw from James Howell's 8,000ish bitcoins to those 80,000ish bitcoins from Satoshi-era? This seems like quite a wild speculation, don't you think? But please, go ahead and elaborate! I'm eager to be surprised and entertained. Wink

I wonder if there were some sponsors to James' legal battles who actually invested some money which they gave him in advance and where there won't be the promised ROI. Anyway, I didn't follow all the gossip about his case.

Pardon me, but I made the wrong assumption.

Although what was truly impressive was how those 80,000 coins were sold to the market and it didn't make Bitcoin go down by more than a small percentage. I believe that it will show institutional investors that Bitcoin is ready for a larger portion of their capital. Cool

some rich old fuck. has an angle for his heirs to avoid inheritance taxes.

and we dropped are 7% 123.1k to 114.9k plus we rallied back. and are around 117.8k

I believe that the sale didn't start when Bitcoin was on the price point of $123,000. It probably started when it was already in the price level between $117,000 and $118,000, then it had a "mini-crash" to the $114,900 to the $115,000 price level. That was a small drawdown considering that Bitcoin is supposed to be a "volatile asset".

Plus Bitcoin is currently trading back in $118,000 - very good price movement.
