are they preparing a big dump of re fueling their hot wallets?
99% sure it'll be a dump.
Won't change my positions though
Can't see that myself
On a scale of 1 to stupid that would pretty much on a par with breaking into a house to rob it, getting drunk on their booze and falling asleep in the armchair ...
He is highly unlikely to be able to cash out any fiat from any exchange he sends those coins too and they are being watched by hawks. Any exchange that touches them will be pressured to hand them and him over. Hell, why wouldn't they. Exchanges need to stick together on this. Can happen to any of them.
One thing he could possibly do is 'wash' them by selling to himself on a different account as suggested, but think there is too much heat on ATM for this to be possible too, with all the addresses being watched. Regardless, doing it by dumping in would be like shining a torch on himself as he did it. Slow drip feed on multiple exchanges, selling to himself, withdrawing 'clean' BTC, possible, perhaps. Still very risky. Anything else, handcuffs. In my humble opinion.
First thing he's gotta do is get the bounty-hunters off his tail ... that will require a lot of continual coin movement.
Of course, all of this is dependent upon our speculations about the actual hack being correct. Layer upon layer of speculation. I think there's gonna be a run on tin-foil hats soon
