but problems with the core tech is gana do that kind of thing...
Not really a core tech problem. This price action was caused by irresponsible communication from an irresponsible exchange trying to spread blame around for its own technical shortcomings.
It would be really helpful if the Bitcoin Foundation and other interested parties were a bit more proactive about challenging Gox. Perhaps if they had been more vigilant and engaged with Gox earlier this could have been avoided.
Statements like this are nowhere near strong enough IMHO:

I really wonder if the current composition of the board is appropriate.

So WTF, a market order dropping btc-e to 100 is real?
I've been saved a fiew time by market orders when I sell 1 decimal too low, but this looks crazy.
Also what's up with Hong Kong, that volume can't be real?
how much volume HK got?I've been saved a fiew time by market orders when I sell 1 decimal too low, but this looks crazy.
Also what's up with Hong Kong, that volume can't be real?

Bitstamp is back to the niveau before the Gox news 
A lot of pigs got slaughtered.
I'm just wondering if the one who sold 8.5k BTC with a market order on BTC-E taking the price down to $102 is a mentally challenged trader who went full retard or just a poor guy who got his account hacked.
He lost MILLIONS to the lucky bastards that had bids down to $100 on BTC-E. Somebody six-folded his money in a couple of seconds.
Pretty sure this was a cascade of forced liquidations, not one actor.
Well, 8.5k coins were sold in the same minute. That was either:
a) one single trader going full retard
b) one huge account got hacked
c) multiple accounts were hacked and were liquidated simultaneously
The fact remains that some bastards got HUNDREDS of coins at $102. I guess the risk of having fiat on BTC-E paid off big time.
EDIT: THOUSANDS of coins in the $100-$200 range
The seller/s lost MILLIONS to those who had the low bids.

WTF btc-e droped too 100!
this is wild

I think a large fish is checking btc-e solvency with the drop. This I think is bearish for the future price bullish as someone is stress testing Bitcoins peripheral infrastructure.

It is interesting to see where this goes. The market will decide but Gox seems to manipulate it.
