Mt. Gox moved 47K Bitcoin, but it won't affect the price.

Three possible scenarios for these transactions:

1. Internal transfer: Changing wallets for security.
2. OTC deal: Designed not to affect the market price.
3. Using a brokerage service: Likely settled after selling since it didn't flow through brokers' wallets or exchanges.

Additionally, 1.5K BTC went to Bitbank, but no significant surge in trading volume has occurred. 1.5K BTC is a relatively small amount.

Monitoring exchange flows is necessary to determine if Bitbank is being used as a broker.

If scenario 3 applies, 94K BTC is available for sell-side liquidity, but selling this much BTC without on-chain movement is unlikely. If it's OTC selling, we're in the clear. — Source
