if you trace the inputs back you see a lot of transactions that send something like 1000btc to one address and 50000 btc to another.  so that looks like an exchange moving some coins from cold storage to a hot wallet.  if you trace back to similar tx's, you arrive at one address which no longer follows that pattern, 1HBa5ABXb5Yx1YcQsppqwKtaAGFPYe5xzY, which has a 90k input from 12sENwECeRSmTeDwyLNqwh47JistZqFmW8.  if you google that address, you get a few people speculating that it's bitstamp.

the speculation in combination with the tx making perfect sense for being a cold-->hot storage move by an exchange, i think there's greater than two chances out of three that OP's tx is a bitstamp cold-->hot storage move.

Now I'm curious. Does anyone know if this is the largest ever BTC transaction pegged in USD? Could you imagine if one of those 100,000 BTC addresses suddenly had movement?

Ah the beauty of having a public ledger!

Sorry that was me again. I just got another island.

LOL !

Damn Bitcoin billionaires - we are just pawns in your evil game of global domination.

I want an island too.

Why so?

Earlier adopters were smart enough to get in at the top of the pyramid, in small numbers.  Slightly more further down the pyramid, and then broad support of many people with few bitcoins at the bottom.

Just curious:

If bitcoin is to be acceptable for every day transactions: $26 million is chump change in the finance/banking sector.

Bitcoin isn't a Ponzi scheme... Charles Ponzi occasionally gave money back Smiley

Bitcoin isn't a Ponzi scheme, noone has promised any profit.

You're correct.  It's technically just a standard "pyramid".

Why so?

And of course I have to pay up fees for every **#ing transaction, but the big guns don't need to pay no stinkin fees right? Business as usual I guess.


Is it just me or is someone / some institution / some agency trying to seriously rock the BTC boat lately ?!
One time is an accident, two times is a trend... three times constitutes a hostile intent. IMHO a bit too many impacts within a so short timeframe for my taste...

damn thats a big purchase/sell
Who says it's a purchase/sell? Most likely this is just an exchange moving their funds between cold storage wallets.

I am not impressed. Perhaps exchanges move large amts of bitcoins all the time between their own wallets to create transaction volume, who knows.
