As most of you have probably heard Mt Gox has started to sell and just with a tiny portion of their holdings sold it devastated the markets. They still have 165 million Bitcoin, BCH, and all the other Bitcoin forks to sell and they plan to continue selling. Even if this is done slowly, its going to be enormous downward pressure and we will be in a bear market AT LEAST for the rest of this year. (considering this God knows what would happen if Satoshi coins started to be sold) Unless...we finally do it...we finally collectively ditch Bitcoin (and I mean all Bitcoin forms) and make it an irrelevant part of the market. Its the only way to make the markets healthy again.

Lets face it, the only reason to have BTC anymore is trading on exchanges or because of some sentimental value. We all know some other crypto is the future. Nobody with sense debates it anymore. At this point, its in everyone's best interests to switch to something else, probably ETH for the moment. That's not to say ETH is the future either necessarily, but its the only other viable option given current exchange support. Decentralized exchanges are also based on it right now so it makes sense in that realm.

Selling the rest of my BTC. I'd suggest you do the same. You're better served keep that money in some coin with a revenue model or something real demand driving it like XMR or a dApp coin like Eth.

He won't be selling any more until it's decided what to do with the rest of the BTC. That won't be decided until the next creditor's meeting which is 6 months away.

When you're a big player in a market, you have a tradeoff between market impact (e.g. how much your sale moves the price down) and your certainty of the price (e.g. how certain you are of the price you'll get). The longer you take to sell your bitcoin, the less sure mtGox is about the price. But the less they will move the price down.

Selling off their holdings over 3 or so months seems like the sensible thing to do, since you can be fairly certain you can get some value out of an essentially useless asset.

This makes sense no sense.

Of all the crypto use cases BTC is the only overwhelmingly successful one so far. A secure electronic store of value with no middleman. Smart contracts and all these other alts have no real value yet. BTC will continue to grow and be king for a long time.

You are concerned because this one entity has .7 percent of the supply of BTC. This is a lot yet ANY OTHER ALTCOIN has individuals holding much larger percent chunks. Any crypto has whales who own enough to drop the price to shit. BTC is at less risk of this than most other coins in reality.

The thing is if people value the coin enough they will buy the dip and restore the price after a brief recession. Plus the court will take another 4-6 years before it rules on what to do with the rest of those coins; just like it took them that long to decide to liquidate these coins and pay off the creditors.

LOL. I can tell you've never bank transferred large amounts of money. Using crypto is a step 99.99% of transactions don't need to take (and lose money on with associated fees taking the money out of the crypto system, if the exchange does it in a timely manner, which they won't.)
Crypto isn't even close to working at speeds that you can get now with conventional systems. Not even close. And why? Most people don't need to use crypto to move money. That's why crypto is failing to be adopted, there's no problem that it solves for anyone. Even the Silk Road problem doesn't exist anymore, and that was it's biggest use case.
Why would I store my cash in crypto, to pay rent, when I can pay online for free, with no fees, and the money clears instantly? Especially when that balance would be down 10%, waking up today? I earned that money, it's had tax paid on it already why do I need Bitcoin to spend it?
When you can show a real benefit to the average chump on the street for using Bitcoin, or any cyrpto currency, then it will take off. That case isn't even close to being made right now, and the future is murky as fuck. When you can show that guy it's better to buy a sixpack and a pizza with Bitcoin, and there are plenty of places he can do that, then you might have a point to make.
Bitcoin's failure to be adopted is why it's dying a slow death. Crypto isn't going away, but it's not replacing fiat anytime soon.

Dummy, read the article. HE isn't selling them, the trustee who took over control of them is, because they had to sell coins to pay off lawsuits, with the court's approval. The fate of the remaining 160k isn't determined by the court yet.

Jesus fuck, the most hilarious and infuriating thing about /biz is the number of retards who run their fucking mouths when they THINK they know what's going on.

The only speculation you can make is either the remaining coins get distributed back to account holders, or the trustee sells off more, at a peak, to generate more funds for the trustee to pay off debts. Both scenarios are likely, but you won't know until after it's done.

That's exactly what the trustee did, according to the article. He sold in clumps, when the price rose, as it's his fiduciary responsibility to get the best price possible.

So, every time Bitcoin peaks, there's a good chance he may dump more. The thinking is, he got enough for now, but nobody knows, as their not in the loop with the trustee, the demands on the case via the trustee, and the court.

The truth of the matter is that the trustee and the courts should have taken greater care of selling the coins to pay off the lawsuits. They haven't clearly analysed the impacts the sell off would have had on the markets.

>> No.8194178

>>8191875
They can't liquidate all of it. The court hasn't determined what the fate of the remaining assets is. Most likely, what's left after all of the lawsuits are settled, the remains will be distributed to the account holders. Have you read nothing about the story? The trustee, who is in charge of the assets of Mt. Gox instead of Mark, is doing what the court tells them to do. The entity Mt. Gox had to pay off creditors (banks and investors, not account holders), so they sold off enough to pay them. The next meeting in 6 months will probably determine the next round of action by the trustee. Seeing as there are still lawsuits and claims to be resolved, I would bet fairly confidently that the sell off isn't over, but there may be a couple months of breathing room.

Maybe. And no, it's not public info, until it's in the court, and testified to. You won't know what the trustee does, until after he does it.

It seems according to this article he will get control of the wallet as soon as the bankruptcy is settled, but I agree he's in for a bunch of lawsuits plus he's being charged with embezzlement by Japan so prison maybe in his future also.

Yep. The fate of all those coins is up in the air. If he's convicted, those coins could be seized. A conviction can also trigger more lawsuits.
