Topic: Dumping coin - do exchanges hold coin? - page 2. (Read 1740 times)
Not sure if it happens but for an exchange to do that it would mean they would be taking a risk which could offset their guaranteed earnings from exchange fees.
Occasionally I read reference to people dumping/selling large amounts of coin and it's effect on bitcoin price. However, for every sell there is a simultaneous buy. So you could just as easily say that there is high buying activity (the other side of the trade)...
... unless you can sell coin to an exchange without a buyer on the other side. Does this happen?
