You better watch out, because some posters here believe that bulltrolls are the same as beartrolls (merely opposites)...
It's definitely not the same thing. If I post highly speculative stuff that is bearish, usually I'll get insulted left and right. If I do it in bullish, noone will give a shit and some will approve.
I don't think there is as many criminals on stamp as you think. If you were a criminal where would you sell?
BTC-E and local bitcoins are probably best. I dont think many criminals are hoarding much coin either as they have expenses to pay, unless they got lucky on the run up. I suspect most criminals aren't into BTC for the technology but rather the means of payment. The last 6 months has probably had most of them running for the hills
Yes, I'm sure BTC-E is the preferred avenue. I don't know how many funds on Bitstamp the criminals control, but the criminals themselves don't know that either, and neither do the other buyers who may wish to front run them. See what I'm getting at?
