Coins hacked from BitFinex are Moving! Possible BTC dump incoming.
I have made alert about possible BFX issues before they way before freezed exchange for all the Steemians following my daily crypto content so hopefulyl saved few souls back then.
Now after all the months the coins have moved, you can see that here: https://gist.github.com/MrChrisJ/4a959a51a0d2be356cc2e89566fc1d87
If the coins will go to exchange we can expect huge and fast dump, since the hackers will have to sell them fast.
So watch this while having money in BitMex, SimpleFX and.. Bitfinex to be able to short BTC fast!
At this point just 153 BTC have been moved yet it shows there might be some action coming soon.
Bitfinex offers 5% bounty on all BTCs you can get them back.
Here is my BFX Guide on Steemit - https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@kingscrown/the-biggest-volume-btcusd-market-margin-trading-guide-bitfinex
You can short BTC there too.. Will be funny. Funniest would be if hacker actually sold coins in BFX in the end though.

Interesting that they're moving but do you really think they could be sold on a market exchange? Would even BTC-e allow it? So far the markets have not reacted in the slightest.
What was the total number of BTC stolen from Bitfinex btw?
around 120 000 ;))
so like 110 million USD if they dump.
Oh damn, I thought it was more like 12,000. They could be testing market manipulation with moving coins. Take out a short and then move 120K to their own addresses that have been primed with previous transactions to exchange deposit addresses.
Yep they can make money with this money without selling them ;) Especially that propably they already made more just shorting bTC back then
Very interesting to look at this. If they had brains to steal it im sure they have tactics to sell it finally too
How could they sell them without getting caught? Any idea?
Mixers would probably be enough to do the trick. But I'm not convinced this wasn't an inside job from bitfinex themselves. Too many shenanigans there with pricing and volume.
Thanks for the headsup.
The sleepster wonders about your whereabouts.
Sorry, off topic... But how the hell did PascalCoin manage to take out the #2 spot on the crypto charts for the last two days? From my perspective it's come out of nowhere and, while it may be unique, I still don't get its runaway popularity...
It just proves there are big pump groups that can manipulate anything
I dont say PASC is bad - its not a copy-paste coin but i dont think its good enough for this volume.
I may be wrong though.
