who controls the bitcoin price?

[kecha1]

No one really. Investors only partially influence the price.

They said Big Whales can control price of Bitcoin and can manipulate the price of Bitcoin, but i think no one can prove that, if they invest a lot of bitcoin they can't manipulate also because many people have also bitcoin in their wallet. Whether they control it or not just go with the  flow, when Bitcoin rise sell it and if Bitcoin goes down, buy it too.

- It is hard to prove this but sometimes looking at some unusual changes is enough to make us doubt control, Bitcoin is probably in many people's wallets but they are not groups of consensus, they are just individuals who like to independently make money in the crypto market, they may even be the proponents of the whale group. Whales are unified organizations of opinion, they make a strong impact on the market, independent players stick to this idea, it's too normal to control the price of bitcoin as these mobs have tacitly understood each other

No one can control the bitcoin price.

It's controlled by a huge supply chain and public demand and availability of bitcoin, when bitcoin demand high then automatically increases the price and demand are less then the price is decreased.

well, i been thinking for a while about who actually controls the bitcoin price.
among the following below, which one do you think has the major influence regarding the bitcoin price?

i. bitcoin whales
ii. the banks
iii. wall street
iv. hedge funds
v. crypto exchanges
vi. crypto influencers

As far as I know, supply and demand determined the price of BTC in the market for a certain period of time. All of the factors you've mentioned lie under the law of supply and demand. If the number of people wants to buy BTC increases, the price will increase and vice versa. Also, Bitcoin Miners brings up a significant effect on the market price. When supply increases, market price decreases.

As i do believe about the law of supply and demand also. Whales couldn't make a big impact to the bitcoin's price if the supply of bitcoin in the market was abundant. And I guess the law of supply and demand are the basis of any project moderatos that is why they are burned their tokens once the supply in the market was too much and ther market demand was too low. But the above mentioned still we the community, the investors, every single person and not as the big whales only can have an impact to the bitcoins price.

...

the conclusion of everything you say is 'bitcoin price is controlled by all Bitcoin traders'...
small traders also have a role in controlling the Bitcoin price. Bitcoin price is the same as the price of other investment assets which will continue to be influenced by sellers and buyers.
