1  Economy / Speculation / Bitcoin price is being manipulated in China on: January 09, 2017, 06:23:42 AM
I received some information from a friend in China reinforcing that Bitcoin price is being manipulated in China. If the information is correct, as I believe it is, this manipulation helps explain the wild Bitcoin price volatility recently. He has requested that his name and location not be identified.

Here's what I heard.  Bitcoin wealthy owners, traders, exchangers and miners meet 24 hours a day at secret places near a large China Bitcoin miner. Attendees divide themselves into 2 groups -- Bitcoin buyers and sellers. At a time agreed on by a majority of both group members, buy group buys the seller group offerings. To manipulate price up, sell group sells at a significantly higher price than market price - buy group buys seller group offerings. To manipulate price down, sell group sells at a significantly lower price than market price - buy group buys seller group offerings. Buy and sell groups switch to sell and buy groups after each sell-buy offering, thus balancing member profits over time.

Seems reasonable to me.

Edit4 Jan 11   10am EST: Corrected spelling 'threatened'

Edit5 Jan 11     5pm EST: Just heard members voted today at 5am EST (BTC = $900 USD) to all be sellers to the market - big profit for the whales 'riding wave down'

Edit6 Jan 11   11pm EST: Just heard again from my friend that the Bitcoin whales have agreed to push BTC price down even more, then 'buy back in the low 100's' — Will begin big selling in 'next 24 hours or when BTC tops out in high 700's.' (source verified but not message)

Edit12 Jan 19    8am EST: Bitcoin owners and investors should be fearful of a Bitcoin “Black Swan” event — an unexpected price crash of large magnitude and consequence. Some of what China Bitcoin exchanges consider 'correct', we consider 'corrupt' — e.g. insider trading, front-running orders, price manipulation.

Edit13 Jan 19    1pm EST: Since China's share of Bitcoin daily volume is more than 95%, the yuan is weakening and all their peasants are buying Bitcoin, the only thing propping up the Bitcoin price wave is that China government has not yet banned Bitcoin. I predict soon they will — the Bitcoin “Black Swan” event in Edit12.

Edit14 Jan 20    1am EST:
Investors Warned by People's Bank of China of Illegal Financing of 3 China Bitcoin Platforms
Results of an initial investigation by People's Bank of China showed BTCChina was engaged in illegal operations and financing activities. Funds and capital trading on the platform were also not guaranteed by third-party custody terms. Two other major Bitcoin trading platforms, Huobi and Okcoin, which are under investigation by the central bank's operations office in Beijing, were also reported to be engaged in illegal financing .....

Edit15 Jan 20    3pm EST: Given my, shall we say … imperfect record at prognostication, I'm going to avoid anything that looks like a 'prediction.' But with that aside, I'm making a 'prediction sequence' — China will ban Bitcoin, and Bitcoin will crash 'heard round the world.' When? Bitcoin will crash sooner than later but before Bitcoin hits $1,000 US.

Edit34 Jan 27 11am EST: I just received the very secret 'Bitcoin Doomsday Clock' — Doom by secret 'Bitcoin price-manipulation BOT' — Caveat emptor

Edit35 Feb 7   9pm EST: I've been wrong before, but this time I'm putting my money where my mouth is. From a source I've found 100% reputable, I just received - without requesting - the date and time of the Bitcoin Apocalypse available to the highest bidder. If I am wrong, I will pay the highest bidder TRIPLE the amount bid + return the amount bid. We both will put all our funds with a mutually-agreed escrow agent.

Here's how it will work: Say highest bidder bids 10 Bitcoin. I deposit 30 Bitcoin. If I am wrong, escrow agent pays bidder 10 Bitcoin + my 30 Bitcoin = 40 Bitcoin. If I am correct, escrow agent pays me the 40 Bitcoin. Not a bad deal, eh?
