It is not going to be one big dump. It is going to be a slow process, grinding the price down (or at least preventing it from taking off)
From the ether genesis sales terms and conditions document
It is possible that the value of BTC will drop significantly, depriving EthSuisse of sufficient resources to continue to operate. In order to guard against this risk, EthSuisse intends to periodically convert proceeds from the sale of ETH into fiat.
Topic: Ethereum still has 27k more coins to dump! (Read 2329 times)
Won't be worse than the mr 102 event, or when someone dumped a fuckton of coins on Gox, enough to fill all buy orders. Both situations the price returned back to normal in little time.
And they don't need to dump to crash the price, only the fact that they have such ammount of coins will be enough to scare people and drop the price

Lower price only means bigger players getting in. Overall picture = headed towards ATH.
Selling 25k coins wouldn't drop the price below $100 USD please stop with the FUD..
You are right.
But dumping 25k in a day or two will drop the coin BY at least $100 USD.
Remember cooperate mining farms are selling coin everyday to recoup their investment and electricity.
That's why they can't dump right now, they are blocked. Just try to dump 1000 btc right now and see what happens!
but they are not the ones, there are other whales who want to cash out and they also blocked with these low volumes (take a look at pumps and dumps right now).
So your saying they are almost out of coins? BUY BUY BUY!!!!
Wow, so much bitcoin into an alt presale. Don't know much about this Ethereum, worth a look I guess, but probably won't buy any.
It effectively isn't just an alt coin. It's some sort of commodity/coin/whatever that get consumed if you buy something with it. It can be used to buy certain services if you will. Although I gotta say I'm no expert and may not even have gotten the concept completely right

You might be able to buy them at cheaper prices on the market than people paid for them during the IPO.

I really don't think that the Ethereum dump caused any of this. If they decide to dump their coins, so be it. Won't hurt the price that much. If they really are in for the long run and still are Bitcoin enthusiasts, they'll keep most of their coins and wait for better days to sell them off!
Why they should sell all their bitcoins, in this way their capital will be worth less due to the decreasing btc price.

I'm tired of Falllliing, ignored from now.
you must be tired of facing reality too, sorry but bitcoin has to suffer all this shit and go down
The last time the ethereum team dumped some bitcoins they announced their intentions beforehand. If they make another dump announcement I expect bitcoin's price will suddenly drop.

And lattes! 
What the hell is an ethereum and why do they have so many coins? Why do you think they want to sell?
Maybe they won't sell all the coins but probably they will sell some more to cover the expenses and do some nice holidays...
I guess they have a lot of expenses to cover. They are renting out offices, employing people and travelling round the world. No doubt they will also need wages for themselves while they develop the project.

I heard Vitalik Buterin speak last January at Decentral and trust me, the kid's a genius.
If the other members of the development team are anywhere close to being as smart as he is, they'll liquidate their bitcoins with minimal slippage.
Would be foolish to trust a kid with 27k btc regardless if he is genius or not. Beside, the world is fine being run by monkey and never has the world ever being run by a genius.

They have earned so many bitcoins with an IPO and the ethereum wallet isn't working yet?

They should be holding their coins because the next year will be worth ten times the actual value according to the charts.
Really? I trust bitcoin more then ethereum...
They should be holding their coins because the next year will be worth ten times the actual value according to the charts.
If they will sell all those coins at once the price will fall under $100 but I doubt they want to lower so much its value.
Ethereum recently dumped only 3.7k bitcoins, they still have 27k coins waiting to dump, guess how low the price will be when they eventually cash out?

Announcement on planned withdrawal from exodus
we intend to soon make a transaction to begin using the funds to repay loans and kickstart the process of setting up our development hubs and expanding our staff. We have made a commitment to be highly transparent about how we spend the funds, and that is a commitment that we intend to live up to; to that end, we have already released an Intended Use of Revenue chart and a roadmap to show how we intend to spend the BTC. More recently, the community has followed up with a wonderful infographic on CoinTelegraph using the information that we have posted. Now, we intend to release some additional information about the nature of our first withdrawal transaction
