Tldr
- A possible amazing hack in which Chinese miners took out a large opposition mine.
- the hack was prompted by the "foundation" slipping in a sneaky "hard fork" to try to take power from these miners.
- We dont know who owns the Blockchain right now.

I'm wondering if the BitCoin stuff is at all related to the volatility in today's markets- people trying to move/hide liquidity. Not knowing how BitCoin works though, I can't really say that with any certainty.
The markets you mentioned are doing bad because, ya know, they're related. If one starts to crap itself, others usually do so as well. Considering you have a major bubble in China that's going poof and a full-on default in Greece, volatility is too be expected. I had thought that the NYSE halting was an attempt to stop it from crashing as a result of other market and it may have actually had that effect. They all took a solid hit today and may have been a lot worse if NYSE hadn't "accidently" had a problem. It'll be interesting to see what happens when markets open in the AM.
UA is an outlier with antiquated technologies. I fail to see anything nefarious, especially related to everything else in this group.
