Anonymous trader buys $400 million in bitcoin
Published: Feb 16

Go big or go home. That’s the motto of one mysterious investor who put his chips on the table, buying close to $400 million of the No.1 digital currency, bitcoin.

The purchase comes as cryptocurrencies are making a comeback after a dreadful start to 2018. Major digital currencies lost as much as 50% to start the year as growing regulation and security fears crippled the market, seeing traders bail on their positions. However, the tide has turned

It's not so easy making a quick profit with large sums, I can see.. it would be a lot of work splitting that around in manageable order amounts, without killing the market with your super-massive orders!

It takes balls to make moves like this.

If I just came up on $400 Billion I'd do the same shit.

But don't expect it to shake it around too quickly, although it may have made a dent somewhere down the road. It'll show for sure.

USA is crackin down on that sort of thing, offering cash rewards to catch and convict pump and dumpers on account of it being against the law, so a hedge fund is not going to do that, or they risk losing everything eh!

Wouldn't a purchase of that amount immediate lower the total value of BitCoin?

Seems really risky, but then again, I never did understand how this currency really works.

Nope, wrong..

Pump and Dump is an old, and very illegal, concept:

"Pump and dump" (P&D) is a form of securities fraud [link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)]


The CFTC maintains general anti-fraud and manipulation enforcement authority over virtual currency
cash markets
as a commodity in interstate commerce. In addition, some of the coin exchanges
are taking measures to identify and block accounts that participate in pump-and-dump activities.



Blow the whistle on
pump-and-dump schemers
Virtual currency and digital token pumpand-dump
schemes continue because
they are mostly anonymous.
If you have original information that
leads to a successful enforcement
action that leads to monetary sanctions
of $1 million or more, you could be
eligible for a monetary award of
between 10 percent and 30 percent.
For more information, or to submit a tip,
visit the CFTC’s whistleblower.gov
website

The moral.. don't do it. Unless, of course, you want to. In which case you might reap what you sow
