Hmm surprised we don't have a more definitive winner list, or speculation going on. I caught a stomach virus so after 5:20pm est I had to sleep some pain off. Woke at 3am to an upset stomach but a rather stable looking market. Think we have to wait till Monday to get our info?a weekend full of cryptic tweets

Ain't there any ETA declared for the disclosure of bids or the winners of the bought BTCs? This time, Tim only got 2000 BTC and he officially announced that... Waiting for the news further...

yeah 2k/ of 50k? seems awful small.. the only thing I was able to derive out that was that Tim was likely to have not such a low bid..but if he's bidding with a consortium perhaps that put certain roadblocks in terms of bid ceiling.

The other 48k to whom? The Draper news seems obscured but maybe my illness has lead me to being lazy on reading. There was bloomberg video with a caption claiming he said he'd have to acquire more btc elsewhere to meet demands....but they're are more auctions Tim.. are you on some sort of time basis we don't know about?

I know we keep seeing posts of 1k+ from last november.. but to see us semi stable above the previous ATH of 266 ( give r take exchanges ) I think bitcoin did quite well for itself for the year, day traders may have got hurt but.. c'est la vie.

Here's to the ensuing excitement of the future.

He bought 2000 coins above market price...
And I think that he bid on more than those 2000 coins...
Which most likely means the other 48000 coins went above market price as well...

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-12-05/tim-draper-wins-part-of-second-silk-road-bitcoin-auction.html we can only assume he paid above MR cause he did last time, but he didn't bid in the same method as last time. The article says he doesn't disclose his price.
