Saw this transaction posted in BTC-e trollbox.

I know this is mega-speculation.... but why not discuss? Is 69,000 BTC enough to start a panic sell?

Is there more going on? Panic sell & strategic DDOS? I noticed a lot of popular bitcoin-related sites have struggled during these massive-Gox-volume periods (clark moody, bitcoinity, bitcoincharts, etc.) Or are these sites struggling because everyone with a BTC position is logging on to check out WTF is going on? Snowball effect?

I have also seen the name Gekko around a bit, but haven't looked deeper than seeing the crappy Gekkopost blog.
