They could be playing the long game. There are only 21M bitcoins possible. 1M is about 5%. The goal of many bitcoin-folk is for bitcoin to be in the top 3 currencies. Imagine only 5% of all the Euro in circulation... or 5% of the USD... $250M is nothing in comparison to that prize. (BTW this is one problem I have with bitcoin)
