Wow, does anyone know why the btc were sent?

 

A lot are suspecting just a personal transfer.

 

This will definitely get the SEC & Senate debating further. Interest in btc will spike.

 

Most people are speculating that the transaction was done by Bitstamp (one of the highest volume exchanges)

It was Bitstamp.

 

Source?

As you can clearly read in the article, PROBABLY is the key.
Don't confirm news you don't even know is confirmed.

Cheers!

 

I never confirmed anything? You asked for source, I posted the link to it.

 

Insane was the one that 'confirmed' the statement, alas with no source.

 

Noticed it this weekend too. Someone in Germany is very happy now --> N4N0 ?¿?

Cheers!

 

All the reports I've heard mentioned funds just being transferred within an organization, i.e. Bitstamp shifting btc from one account to another and NOT someone paying for a thousand Lamborghinis.

 

That's not the source I was referring to. That's why I asked that other guy for the source.

Cheers!
