I honestly don't think the Bitcoin market is sophisticated enough to react to events like this. Certainly, if the feds really want to sell and someone puts $0.01 on the order books for that size of a trade, and nobody else is around, it could be filled, but I don't see that happening.

It wouldn't be unprecedented. I believe that mass sells have caused price crashes numerous times in the past.

Perhaps I misunderstood you?

Sort of. To me, it looks indistinguishable from randomness with /r/bitcoin trying to explain the randomness with news stories. But maybe I'm wrong.
