I wish there was a way to upload images to these posts. The graphs are indeed strikingly similar.
go to imgur.com and upload your pictures then share the link here!
Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and others experienced a dramatic drop last night at 22:00 and then popped back up to their original numbers shortly there after. It just seems too identical.
Makes me suspect that something automated is manipulating the prices.
it is not exactly automation, it is because these markets are linked together so when one moves, other move with it.
for example ETH is 0.045
BTC and at the same time it is worth $371
that means bitcoin was $8244.44
now lets say bitcoin drops to $7800, as i said these markets are linked. if ETH stays at 0.045
BTC that means it is losing value because 0.045
BTC is now worth $351 so it has to rise against bitcoin but to rise, someone has to buy it and there is always more people trading in the bitcoin markets than in fiat market that means price against USD drops because it can not go up against bitcoin.
the final result of this is ETH at 0.0458
BTC and $357 in other words a drop.
