I think it would hover around $1 for awhile, and then after a year be back at $10.

Something like this - it would be similar to a bank run: if the dumper were patient and cashed out 20k a day for a month, the market would drop slowly, and buyers could get cash into the market to pick up the discounted coins before the market dropped too far.

Also, that person with the 236,000 btc order at $1.15 on MtGox would be mostly vindicated.  "Mostly" because even a 600k btc dump might not completely fulfill his/her order.

None of the options sounds realistic. The first three (5min return, everyone dumping, price going higher than before) would require that everyone goes insane, and the last one, a two-week recovery, would need an unusually high buying volume.

The most likely outcome is for the price to stabilize at a lower level.

If someone did that, it would hurt, but there wouldn't be much point in taking 'profits' that low, so no, I don't think it would keep getting pushed down.
If it sat around $1 for a week or so, that would be bad for confidence, so it would have to rebound somewhat quickly, to the $4-5 range, at least.

Not to mention the buying frenzy that would occur at such low levels, it wouldn't stay down long.

That said, I have a long time buy order sitting at $1.15 (Shocked) so I would welcome it.
