So I woke up this morning to find a coyote in my yard and 750 CLAM in my poloniex balance.
My long-standing buy order at 0.00515151 BTC/CLAM had been dumped into. I wasn't expecting that, since the price had been in the high 0.006's and holding pretty steady.
So where did the dump come from? I updated my "digging" chart, and didn't see any real increase in digging activity:
So I scanned the blockchain for recent big coin movements, and found these (txid, output size):

the same address, and it looks very much like a poloniex deposit address. The same address has quite a history too:
ie. the same poloniex account was used to dump 40k CLAM in December and a further 73k CLAM in January.
I'm not sure how we didn't notice such huge dumps at the time. Maybe we did and I've forgotten about them?
Anyway, this morning's 8 deposits move a total of 11500 CLAM to poloniex, and so far only around 5500 CLAM has been dumped:
So I figure there's another 6000 CLAM waiting to be dumped.
Edit: Re. "I'm not sure how we didn't notice such huge dumps at the time" - I think it's because large amounts of it was withdrawn back from poloniex rather than being dumped. The 39700 deposited in January is probably the same coins as the 40k deposited in December, and today's dump came from the same coins as well. Then again, it's hard to be sure.
