To put it in perspective, the daily volume in BTC is a few 100,000s. 5-600'000 BTC is $10B. Sure the Winklevoss twins can't liquidate their entire holding in a week but if you only have a few million dollars worth of bitcoin, you can liquidate in a few days without moving the price significantly.

The other major crypto-currencies are more or less liquid in proportion to their market cap.

Not sure what you’re measuring... gdax alone averages around 25k btc traded per day. At today’s price that’s 450mil usd

Thanks, I mistakenly wrote million instead of billion. Edited.
