> There isn't any conclusive proof that the #1 address (111,111 BTC) belongs to DPR, but it is clearly linked to SR in one way or another.

It's been linked to Ross/altoid's Bitcointalk posts, and has a sum consistent with the first year of SR commissions. That's all as conclusive evidence as anyone needs for it.




So what happens when you remove 1% of the currency from the market in a single day?


It hasn't been removed yet. The DPR story has just started - the password-crackers could turn in success any day, or Ross could decide that he'd like to cut a decade off his near life sentence. All we can say is that it's currently not on the market, which is exactly what we could say before the SR bust.


"I apologize, Goldfinger. It's an inspired deal!"
