Title: Easy to bring down BTC price?
Post by: LuckyKey on September 08, 2018, 07:18:49 PM
Would we ever be able to see (know when) wealthy finance companies working together to buy and sell bitcoin (lower), deliberately throwing money away to lower the price? Add in the $ that's made from shorting the coins (btc & eth shorts have record highs), and they can minimize their losses. No regulation, collectively billions to throw towards the cause, makes for an easy way to manipulate the price downward.

With no regulation (anyone can buy and sell any amount) and the majority of BTC trading volume being worthless (traders and bots running trying to buy and sell enough to make a few bucks), how much selling would it really take to continuously drop the price?

There was a record breaking 10,000 BTC short placed earlier in the week, just before the recent selloff dropped the price. Who knew? The sellers
Taking into account the $ made on the shorting btc and eth, does anyone know what it would take to continuously drive down the price? IMO, I don't think as much $ as people are thinking?  :(

BTC is not easy to lower the price, now BTC is rising slightly and is the most potential coin on the market, maybe in a short time the price of BTC will go to moon

The price of bitcoin, this is of little interest. Most importantly, this is his function, which he can perform. I agree that volatility does not do him positive merit. Bitcoin is a system outside of any system. Speculation is a by-product, fully controlled by exchanges.

People who are scared has a huge role also in bringing the price of Bitcoin go down. But I know that those Big people has a plan on making those people go in the market again.

You are simply talking about price manipulation by the whales which is something that by now, should not be anything new to anyone.

It has been said times without number that as long as this market is more prone to speculation than real demand based on real life usage, manipulation will always be a regular thing. You said it yourself, this is a decentralized, non regulated market, so what else would you expect?

The same set of people who drive it down which we call the bears and every other investor and trader follow put, are the same set of people who are buying and bringing about bullish sentiments with a rinse and repeat process.

It is easy or hard depends on how much bitcoins there have,if they have huge number of bitcoin which is worth in millions then it can be the reason for the continuous price fall but it is not going to be permanent price fall since someone will buy those coins for cheaper price then the price will move in the upward direction.

With so many Bitcoins in possession, it may be very easy to reduce it and if it doesn't work, there's nothing you can do, now it's a very vulnerable situation where there are so many people who panic and don't know what to do, this is a good opportunity for those who have money and Bitcoin there are so many important examples that have happened in the past few days with great sadness with huge profits for them after pumping and convincing many people after feeling enough they threw it back, coming back to all its users, because most of it was here not ready for an incident like that, panic repeated.

You can make the Bitcoin crashing without owning a single bitcoin. Sad but true. It's only a matter to have the right resources needed and it can be done in a few days only. A few persons have the right resources do it currently and it's like a private circle. I am not talking conspiracies here, but believe it or not, money is power you can buy even what is not for sell.

They can easily do that, manipulate the price. But the we don't have such proof though, because the market is open for everyone. As you have said, no regulations and decentralizes system.

With no regulation (anyone can buy and sell any amount) and the majority of BTC trading volume being worthless (traders and bots running trying to buy and sell enough to make a few bucks), how much selling would it really take to continuously drop the price?

Almost all coins are not hitting rock bottom, so I say we are almost closed to the floor price. How much? Maybe if billions of dollars being wiped on in couple of days, it will be enough for most coins to die or close to dying specially altcoins.

We don't know who the seller is, I read that perhaps that wallet belong to someone who is involved in Silk Road or Mt. Gox heist. We will never knew. As I have stated , billions of dollars of marketcap would be needed to drove the price down significantly.

Cryptocurrencies market is an anonymous and you cannot easily trace transactions therefore we the traders will ever find it very difficult to know when whales come together to takes trading decision. However,  since billions of dollars is really needed to be able to drive the price in a particular directions it then means we cannot really  know the subtitles decision of the whales in other to be able to play along.

All has the possibility either can bring the price up or on new heights on a short time frame and it can lower than on least we expected since we know that this market do involve emotions.One fud
then all things would mess up and we have seen countless scenarios about this matter.Fundamentals are one of the factors that can bring the market easily to hell.

The market of crypto currencies is regulated only by exchanges and whales. Therefore, it is not surprising that we can observe such manipulations at a price. I think that in Desember 2017- early 2018, many people took money out of exchanges, and now it's the turn of exchanges to take money from people. After all, many traders are now trying to make money on marginal trading. But in some unknown way, orders don't work even when the price reaches the desired marks. Thus, now the exchanges take money from traders.
I think that when exchanges and whales are saturated and bought at low prices, then they will return people's interest in crypto-currencies with the next mega pamp.

The current scenario big companies are not ready to adopt the Bitcoin. So price fluctuation is continuously happening in the market but china is accepting the legalization of cryptocurrency. Automatically it will going to moon. We are all concentrate the legalisation of cryptocurrency.

btc is not easy to lower prices. What they want is to lower people's imagination for btc, easier to dictate than btc dump. It can drag on the dominoes of the entire market to make a mass dump in the market. Do not know ever will end dump?

It's not easy to decrease the price of bitcoin if you have not big money. Bitcoin is the most stable coin. You can see its chart. It's the first coin therefore all coin base on it. Other coins have a lot of problems to be the leader.

It's the most stable because it's holding the dominant rate which is over 50%, that means slow movement of bitcoin
will bring bigger movement of altcoins as they are in one crypto market.
The price will go up and down but the recent trends are going down and that is because of the whales who love to manipulate the price.

Bitcoin prices are influenced by a number of factors, the most typical of which are the need to trade bitcoin, if the purchase of more than the sale will drive the price up.

Post by: hugeblack on September 12, 2018, 03:46:18 PM
I agree with you there was some manipulation of the price but not the way you mentioned.

At the end of last year, some platforms gave incorrect prices which made the difference between it and other platforms about $ 1000, this manipulation led to the addition of more money to bitcoin and so on.

At the moment, it is difficult to have such operations as there are a lot of regulators that check the prices.


There was a record-breaking 10,000 BTC short placed earlier in the week, just before the recent selloff dropped the price. Who knew? The sellers
The reason for the recent decline was not that 10,000 because the "circulating supply" is around 17,263,312 which mean 0.000579263122 effects.

It's very likely that those with the power to knock the BTC value have already been doing this, the market cap is definitely not so high that this cannot be done quite easily by a few whales. Even those making the regulations probably know their decisions will provide a quick profit or short opportunity and so manipulate the market for their own gain, it's human nature.

Why will you say it is not easy to lower the price, when certainly a lot of whales are in the market and as long as you will get to see a lot of people who have huge funds coming together in a speculative market, price manipulation is something that can easily be got ?

Notwithstanding, it is part of every market as we will certainly see those with larger positions in a market making their own decisions based on market response and perception, and they simply are the ones we classified to as market makers, so they simply do exactly what they are called.

Why there won't be any companies like those who are going to be whales of this market and selling off badly to profit themselves? I guess there are or there might be some companies who might be laundering the money in that way so that they can benefit there organisation itself. Who would leave the chance to invest in a market which is completely driven by the decentralised nature? The prices currently are being driven by similar forces. There may not be the big entities but surely bug bag holders who are similar to institutions if they have got so much money in their accounts.

For those who were big whales they could really bring down the price of btc, because they actually have the funds to play day trading. They enjoyed it, but in a thing about hyped price that's their option to initiate bull run activities. Mainly it could make the price increase very fast and due to decentralized matter, it cannot be regulated.

Individuals can’t really do that, not even a group can do that. The only thing people can do is to pump the price of Bitcoin. And after the price has gotten high they can withdraw back their money to dump the price and make it fall again. That’s the only thing they can do, if you don’t have money in the Blockchain then they can’t do anything.

How many of you will be facing them. Actually, what the big ones will be doing is to drive away weak hands from the market, drive it down enough to a point that seems realistic to them and then start buying in at that point as much as they can with all those weak hands coming back to join FOMO later on.

Bringing down the price for those who have the money and funds to do so is something easy at least for a speculative market, as they buy the dips the create enough volume upward, and then market participation kicks in and then when it hits a stage where it starts getting weak and they feel there is no need to drive it further, they sell and the same process repeats itself backward.

The price if any digital currency can be manipulated by holders who control a large percentage of the entire volume (whales), they can lower or increase the price to suit their strategy.
As a crypto inclined individual, this is not news.

We've got stabilize right now but the we all wanting, we want more to compensate our losses in the past days. There's a lot of crying babies out there seeking for bull runs came out, but it could be hard to see it now as there is no indications of wide growth for BTC on the market. And looking its market volume, it is only below $4bil which couldn't be enough to have some pumps.

I think big corporations are only part of btc's discount. This year btc is hard to come by when bitmex is involved in price action on btc. Can not get up. Unless there is a huge news impact on the purchase of everyone.

easy or not, I think that depends on how much bitcoin you have. because for me it's very difficult, because I think of so many markets that have bitcoin. when you want to make bitcoin dump, you have to have lots of bitcoin in every market. yeah, but i think it will be very difficult.

Actually, it can be difficult to know at any time the company, financial wealth, work together to buy and sell bitcoin (lower), the Current capitalization of BTC in particular and the electronic money market in general is still too small compared to other industries such as stock, forex, so susceptible to manipulation especially with respect to the company financial wealth. So now we are playing the game. Play their game due to their manipulation of the market.

Manipulated bitcoin price is not easy, even they have big money and news sources to give impact into market users what you think is not right. If someone can do that I believe crypto is like stock, just need one call to create new price on broker market. Keep positive with bitcoin and just follow it, we will never become leader into financial instrument. Think again please.

Do you have noticed bitcoin chart from January 2018 to till now? Understand anything? Everywhere  indicates manupulate!! They makes market billish and told us fairy story that bitcoin is illegal, and so ban by usa, india or bla bla bla. Then people sell their share to save theirs balance and thus, result dump market. Then Big fish Traders Let us know,  bitcoin have a great future etc etc and makes us crazy to investment in bitcoin  again.

Manipulated bitcoin price is not easy, even they have big money and news sources to give impact into market users what you think is not right. If someone can do that I believe crypto is like stock, just need one call to create new price on broker market. Keep positive with bitcoin and just follow it, we will never become leader into financial instrument. Think again please.
A game of trust and better understanding, if you will believe that it can be fully manipulated then better for you to understand how they will work with it, bitcoin indeed an asset for several personalities and big holders, indeed that they can make such an impact if they start to work along with their big investment, just be wiser enough and understand the drill so you won't ends up nothing from this industry.

Yes, important is the financial power of the whales, they have the power to manipulate the market. If they hold 1 million Bitcoins, they can make the market crazy for long periods, so easy to bring down BTC price.

Well it is hard to say anything about the wealthy financial companies because the question is why would they invest into the crypto currency if their business is already running perfectly in the current financial sphere. They are big and they dont need the crypto currencies for growing their businesses to the next level. Also, note that though they enter the crypto currency market then I hardly think that they will be making any noise with the crypto pumps and dumps. Lets digest that they might be holding up he amount of crypto and thus even 1% rise and fall can make bigger changes in their crypto assets. So its always better to think positively about such organisation as they are also contributors of the crypto.

when whales make excessive price adjustments I as a small trader simply hold a coin because the market will recover and the price will improve again, that's when I will sell. the easy analogy is when they try to press the market until the price falls the goal is to create panic sell which eventually they will buy more, after they feel full then the next wave of pump on the market will happen, there I will go with the flow to sell

No doubt that btc was the most potentials cryptocurrency in the market that's does mean it can't be easily manipulated since it decentralized and like the OP said there are 10000btc shorts trading on exchange site acouple of weeks and a single whales can does that.

Already we are experience in previous dump so Mt.gox is sell number of coins in single shot so total market was down in that time. But current scenario no need to depends on the prices because we are all stay in a dip.
 I think future raise and fall are depends on our own risk and I hope market will never bring down strongly so we should move forward in future so we never worried about Bitcoin.

The crypto lives it`s early stages and the market is still young, small and can be manipulated easily by whales. We can not do anything against it, just ride the crypto waves and make some profit out of it. Volatility is not a bad thing if we can use it to  our advantage.

It can be brought down through complicated and subtle means...you won't even realize it until you pay close attention. I believe this is easier on centralized exchanges.

Developers could effectively avoid market manipulation by avoiding/restricting the listing of their coins on all of such public exchanges and possibly create their own mini exchanges where their coins can be traded. But this may not be a good idea for Cryptocurrency due to its important values of decentralization and permissionless. Maybe used as a temporal measure until normalcy is restored?

Would we ever be able to see (know when) wealthy finance companies working together to buy and sell bitcoin (lower), deliberately throwing money away to lower the price? Add in the $ that's made from shorting the coins (btc & eth shorts have record highs), and they can minimize their losses. No regulation, collectively billions to throw towards the cause, makes for an easy way to manipulate the price downward.

With no regulation (anyone can buy and sell any amount) and the majority of BTC trading volume being worthless (traders and bots running trying to buy and sell enough to make a few bucks), how much selling would it really take to continuously drop the price?

There was a record breaking 10,000 BTC short placed earlier in the week, just before the recent selloff dropped the price. Who knew? The sellers
Taking into account the $ made on the shorting btc and eth, does anyone know what it would take to continuously drive down the price? IMO, I don't think as much $ as people are thinking?  :(

Like most things in the world, everything becomes alot easier when you've enough capital to pave the way. Bringing Bitcoins price down is no problem for whales holding multiple hundred millions worth of Bitcoins in their wallets. That's why people tend to follow their wallets activity and even have bots to give warning when there's movement happening between the wallet and exchanges.

Liquidity solves this problem quite handily, it's alot easier to manipulate low liquidity markets where the orderbooks are extremely thin compared to traditional markets.

Apparently, crypto is like stocks, and just a more digital version of it, since it is a global thing in this scenario. Manipulations are always going to be there and it is nothing new since it is a speculative market and how ever the big whales want it, is how they are really going to drive it. It is all about trading emotions on the chart for them.

However, this is just a way for them to gain huge position in the long run at the losses of the gullible ones, it is only left for each individual to make the decision on whether they want to be gullible or not.

for someone like me it is very difficult to do, but not for big investors who have a lot of business networks, they can work together to drop the value of btc by making low transactions, so slowly the value of btc will surely fall, then they will buy more many of all people to create profits
Apparently, bringing down a boat is not something meant for small fishes and rather it is meant for big whales. There is so little anyone with a very tiny amount can do when it comes to bringing down the price of cryptocurrency.

The only thing you can do is to just be a participant in the movement of the market and trade based on some analysis and strategies you have, and asides that, you can do nothing. For a big whale however, bringing down the price as a result of the low trading volume can affect the price pretty fast.

Actually, it can be difficult to know at any time the company, financial wealth, work together to buy and sell bitcoin (lower), the Current capitalization of BTC in particular and the electronic money market in general is still too small compared to other industries such as stock, forex, so susceptible to manipulation especially with respect to the company financial wealth. So now we are playing the game. Play their game due to their manipulation of the market.
Bringing down the price of bitcoin is easy but raising the price is difficult and the problem is this that investors want higher price of bitcoin so that would be able to make some money. Existing investors do not want lower price of bitcoin because they will lose their money. On the other hand I don’t think that big finance companies will work together for bitcoin.

If you have unlimited supplies of money to burn in cryptocurrency then it definitely are easy for them to dump the price specially if those manipulators are divided in to uncountable groups that will spread on all the exchanges. That is the true nature of trading. If you have all the wealth, the game will play on your hands and the winner will always be you. It would be nice if there is a concrete regulation that will minimize those manipulative acts in the market and also putting a limit on each trades might work.

This is a free market. Regulations will only cause trouble and will end up creating centralization. How long do you think the whales will keep on manipulating the price? Like you stated you will need "unlimited" supplies of money to bring significant change and whales can never have unlimited supplies of money since bitcoin itself has limited cap.
But, still regulation is not the answer to counter price manipulation. The stock market is regulated, but manipulation still takes place. We just need to find better solution.

I agree with you. If the value of the market increases, it will be impossible for the price to be dump-pump. Forex, stock market and others are difficult to move the price of the market because they have been available for a long time and daily circulations are more than trillion. For Bitcoin, value have been increasing every year more than before. Now it is in good status.

The price only moves on a trend when the market wants to.

It doesn’t matter how much money a big player put on it to force some direction, if he is going on the wrong way,he will lose all.

So if the demand is weak, would be easy to take it down, but if you do it let’s say under 6.000,00 could appear a big demand and spike the price much higher then your sell price. Short covering and holders working together can make such a ruge movement that coul attracts more buyers and Bul the market up again.

This is the main problem that small investors do not put their money in bitcoin because of these whales. They influence the price so much that other is not able to make money from their bitcoin investment.

If we put fear of loss inside the mind of crypto users it also make fall of bitcoin market. Game is not over here, hacking may have very adverse effect on bitcoin. Many investors lost their bitcoin due to hacking so if hacking will not stopped btc will be at risk. Now America is going hard on bitcoin due to some reasons which is why btc stuck at $6500.

You are simply talking about price manipulation by the whales which is something that by now, should not be anything new to anyone.

It has been said times without number that as long as this market is more prone to speculation than real demand based on real life usage, manipulation will always be a regular thing. You said it yourself, this is a decentralized, non regulated market, so what else would you expect?

The same set of people who drive it down which we call the bears and every other investor and trader follow put, are the same set of people who are buying and bringing about bullish sentiments with a rinse and repeat process.
While the manipulation of the whales is real, the manipulation is not as great as many people imagine, bitcoin is a very big market already, very few people around the world have the money needed to manipulate the price as much as people think that whales do, so it is better to try to find ways to become a better investor or trader than to try to put the blame on the whales.

If bitcoin price easy to down the price also is easy to increase the value of the bitcoin. The number 1 reason why the price decreased because of the panic seller but if many people will buy more bitcoin the price increase fastly. I hope the price will not decrease again.

I dont think it's easy to reduce or increase Bitcoin prices. Because it all takes great preparation and combination from many people to achieve the goal of pumping the price. I have been working in such a group and it is a very troublesome thing.

It's easy to bring down if you hold so much bitcoin that could drag the price down , and cause panic sell from weak hands. That's the problem of btc it can easily be influenced by fud and speculations. whales always win when they want to dump

The whales are very smart they understand very well that if they try to manipulate the market as much as you suggest they are going to be the ones that lose money because they are the ones holding huge amounts of bitcoin, so the manipulation of bitcoin and its price is a lot more subtle than what many people think, I really think that the whales instead of trying to manipulate the supply of bitcoin they could try to manipulate the news to make the price go up or down according to their wishes.

In my opinion, I think the big investors manipulated the price of the bitcoin. But it depends on the market if the price will down or rise again.

Bitcoin is currently have the biggest market cap between all crypto, i think only whales possible to manipulate the price. Many early adopter of Bitcoin bought alot of  BTC with very cheap  in 2010, and some of them holding about 1% of total supply so will be more easy for them to manipulate the price.

In my opinion it can happen in the market can be very high and even lower. But it's almost easy to say the price is almost stable. It would be better if there were rules that would minimize manipulation acting on the market and also limit any trade to succeed.

BTC is not easy to lower the price, now BTC is rising slightly and is the most potential coin on the market, maybe in a short time the price of BTC will go to moon
Why will you say it is not easy to lower the price, when certainly a lot of whales are in the market and as long as you will get to see a lot of people who have huge funds coming together in a speculative market, price manipulation is something that can easily be got ?

Notwithstanding, it is part of every market as we will certainly see those with larger positions in a market making their own decisions based on market response and perception, and they simply are the ones we classified to as market makers, so they simply do exactly what they are called.

Indeed the price of bitcoin is too easy to have a decrease, I think so. Because as we all know that its fluctuation is really volatile within 24 hours, especially with the dump. Honestly the manipulation of the whales, plus FOMO that bring market down quickly. Even when the market has a slight decrease, maybe owning to the lack of knowledge which lead most people draw their mind in panic selling, well this is one of the worst thinking when market is on bad fluctuation. I suppose most people should learn how to manage in the crutch time in order that they will not participate on Dumping.

simple to think about it. when you have lots of bitcoin, you sell it at a low price, and of course that can make the price of bitcoin go down. well, because it's a very good thing for bitcoin, sometimes when people make the price of bitcoin go down, others will see it as an opportunity. so, I think it will be real difficult, especially if you are alone.

It seems there is an impression that many early adopters are still holding their coins and that is simply not true, many early adopters sold their coins immediately or they used them to buy stuff back in the day, only the most fervent believers in bitcoin held their coins believing that something like this could happen anytime soon, so even if people do not like their influence they deserve it.

Before doing this,couple of whales must have one stand to go together in that specific coin like bitcoin,we have same point of view how the big holders of bitcoin making the price grow or high in their own ways.how mny times we have seen this kind of happenings because sometimes price of bitcoin will pump hugely but all of a sudden in just a few hours goes down again drastically,even i have no proof of this accusations but this is happening mostly
