Blimey. I never knew any of that. And I cannae believe that the list is made public. Looks like I'll have to cash out my countless millions with several thousand dust coffee shop deals per day instead.

A reddit poster did some research that revealed a possible candidate for the bearwhale. The EU requires Bitstamp to give them a list of users that withdrew over €30k, and the EU makes that list public. The list only had one user that withdrew the amount of money the bearwhale made, so he's either that user, or never withdrew, or brought back in at lower prices and withdrew in Bitcoins.

The bearwhale is probably the VELIKA BRITANIJA BITCOIN SUB-FUND.

Way out west there was this fella... fella I wanna tell ya about. Fella by the name of [redacted]. At least that was the handle his loving parents gave him, but he never had much use for it himself. [redacted], he called himself "The Bearwhale". Now, "Bearwhale" - that's a name no one would self-apply where I come from. But then there was a lot about the Bearwhale that didn't make a whole lot of sense. And a lot about where he lived, likewise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place so darned interestin'.

They call Bitstamp the "Stamp of Bits." I didn't find it to be that, exactly. But I'll allow there are some nice folks there. 'Course I can't say I've seen okcoin, and I ain't never been to Bulgaria. And I ain't never seen no Lawsky in his damned undies, so the feller says. But I'll tell you what - after seeing Bitstamp, and this here story I'm about to unfold, well, I guess I seen somethin' every bit as stupefyin' as you'd see in any of them other places. And in Slovenian, too. So I can die with a smile on my face, without feelin' like the good Lord gypped me.

Now this here story I'm about to unfold took place back in the late '2014s - just about the time of our conflict with Putin and the separatists. I only mention it because sometimes there's a man... I won't say a hero, 'cause, what's a hero? But sometimes, there's a man. And I'm talkin' about the Bearwhale here. Sometimes, there's a man, well, he's the man for his time and place. He fits right in there. And that's the Bearwhale, at Bitstamp. And even if he's a lazy man - and the Bearwhale was most certainly that. Quite possibly the laziest in Bitcoinia, which would place him high in the runnin' for laziest worldwide. But sometimes there's a man, sometimes, there's a man. Aw. I lost my train of thought here. But... aw, hell. I've done introduced him enough.

I buy stuff with it.  That's what it's for.  Private transactions, private holdings.  No tracking.  If I wanted to buy stuff costing more than a few large, it would not be suitable, but so far my largest purchase was less than 10k US, so no problem.  Oh, and it's actually profitable to mine where I live, unlike BTC.

This all has to do with Bitcoin....this will all drive the price of BTC up in turn. Don't you see..its a win win win. The future of BTC is very bright and getting even brighter because of this.

manbearwhale was so weird. what is the overall take on what happened there? someone eating their own coins?

The best candidate for who bearwhale is by looking at the financial list demanded by EU for any tx exceeding €30k in areas where there "is a greater probability of occurrence of money laundering or terrorist financing" (http://www.uppd.gov.si/si/delovna_podrocja/vsebinska_podrocja/objave_38_clen_zppdft/podatki_o_transakcijah_38_clen_zppdft/) (http://www.uppd.gov.si/fileadmin/uppd.gov.si/pageuploads/NAKAZILA/Arhiv/nakazila_06012014.xls - the most current list)

So only in december those guys cashed out ~€11,6 million euro - and if we add late november we are at €13,6 million - about $16million dollars. There are no other possible candidate in that list. So if it's not Exante (bitcoin-fund) then bearwhale didn't withdraw to fiat.

It went up more than my wildest hopes could imagine.  I haven't seen that happen since 2013.  Impressed, I am.  I don't see a reason why it should not continue to exceed my expectations during the rest of the week.  I had might as well up my stake.

manbearwhale was so weird. what is the overall take on what happened there? someone eating their own coins?

I should've rephrased that as present usage, not theoretical possibilities.

I expect it to decline starting today.  Top is in for the next few weeks, if so.  My 40% alternative scenario is for 3 more weeks going up, touching 300. 

Not Satoshi was the bearwhale. The bearwhale was the bearwhale. The 'he' denotes the person (not necessarily Satoshi) who was the bearwhale...

He's down in the Mariana Trench feeding off the hot sulphur and swelling ever larger every second...

Meant it doesn't matter in either case.

Bearwhale was the beast for his time and place.  And he is no more.

Or is he...  

Not unless he mined a bunch of coins later. The early blocks that we know Matoshi mined have coins that have never moved.

asking who the bearwhale was...

like asking who Satoshi was.



He was the bearwhale.

asking who the bearwhale was...

like asking who Satoshi was.



He was the bearwhale.
