You guys haven't thought about if he actually put in approx. $25million dollars during the peak of the bubble... Maybe NOW it's only $9mil but that doesn't mean that's what he started with. Why are you guys always thinking about people making gains and huge profit???

I'd imagine that summertime who has $25 million to invest into btc is hurting for money so much that they would sell for a big loss. Whoever sold those coins stood to gain and may very well hold a lot more btc.

$9 million in some soon-to-be-worthless fiat. I'd be very worried if I stood to lose that much wealth within the next 3-5 years!

Who knows, maybe what happened is exactly what they wanted to happen for whatever reason.

This, who knows the plan.

The huge volume (most of it bought up in a very short space of time by Mr so called 'bear whale' himself no doubt), results in a convincing bottom from a technical analysis standpoint. I see it as a form of chart engineering. Whether it is enough to turn market sentiment around permanently remains to be seen. My guess would be that further lows are yet to come some time down the road.

Panicked trades are always bad trades.

But the guy/girl is sitting on $9M now, I don't think he is too worried.

could be sitting on 12M with practically no effort. that is, he just gave 3 mil to traders community; that's the spirit of sharing!

If you had $9 million USD would it be crucially important to get another $9 million USD?

Maybe.

If I had $9 million I could afford to make a 22nm chip.

... and if I had $18 million I could afford to make one mistake Smiley

$9 million USD should be more than enough for most people to never have to worry about money again. If you had $9 million USD would it be crucially important to get another $9 million USD?

Eventually it isn't about the money.

You mean sitting on a beach with $9 million USD in his back pocket? I think he's doing just fine.


Could his gains have been higher? Yes. Sometimes its better to take a huge win than to let greed kick in and bet on a brighter future.

It's the whale game, scare the market and start buying back when panic kicks in, easy 10-15% profits on your btc.

For all we know the whale could be an early adopter or thief who doesn't care to maximize their gains.
