Satoshi Nakamoto being Chinese. That's quite interesting.
Actually my first thought was that Satoshi is asian. Because of the name.

That is my answer also. Whales. Hehehe. Those who have a lot of bitcoin in their hand. Example are companies. Group of people who wants to invest a big amount. They can control it anytime if they want. For now they are silent
 Tasting the profit from last growth.

some people says that China is controlling the bitcoin other says that Japan have a strong hold over bitcoin. but i do not believe on these statement. because i dont know that from where the people are estimating these result. my personal view is that the bitcoiner are controlling the bitcoin. if they give support to bitcoin i will certainly grow more and more.

The Chinese are just miners employed by the bitcoin community to secure the bitcoin network. They are just labour.

Yaa the chineses are just the miners. They are making bitcoins and keeping the bitcoin system running. I guess the bitcoiners themselves control the bitcoins as it is the peer to peer transaction. Every bitcoiner is keeping the system running and therefore no one specifically have control over it.

From coindesk:
Bitcoin is a form of digital currency, created and held electronically. No one controls it. Bitcoins aren't printed, like dollars or euros – they're produced by people, and increasingly businesses, running computers all around the world, using software that solves mathematical problems.

Mostly adopter / Bitcoin Community especially whales control the course of Bitcoin.

No one, but rich investors who buy or sell to change the price of BTC at their own will. Thus, BTC is anonymous yet governed by individuals

all of us

The idea is that nobody is in control, and thus it's called decentralized. No entity can or should control the coin and with that it's future.
But by now we all know now some 'rich guys' a.k.a. Whales are using it for their own benefit. The game played by them will be played for many years, but eventually those big whales, will be small whales.

Not literally the bitcoin itself, but the bitcoin price. Yes I believe in here since they are the only who can start a panic whether panic buying or panic selling.

And if they succesfully bring the community in their started trend, the next will be the massive pump or dump.

nothing controls bitcoins, there is no team, the price depends only on people whether they are willing to buy or they are selling, dont know any teams you talk about

Actually on this capitalist world, markets have the last word in almost every thing that is worth something, and that is why we can observe such unexpected behaviors in the bitcoin price, because these days all the altcoins are only supported by markets to value its price and potential development.

But in my opinion bitcoin is not controlled by china or japan pal. I think people tend to follow market prices china so that made it seem like bitcoin prices are controlled by China when that control is our own bitcoin

I think it will controlled by that two powerful country, but i want in the future only users will control the bitcoin base on their demand and how they can use their bitcoin.

[kryptqnick]

WE all control btc in some way. Especially miner farmers and just those who have lots of btc (casino owners, for example).

[AioFox]

Satoshi controls it XD. Anyway i think the entire market of users has the final say in controlling bitcoin. The developers can try to force a change on miners they don't want, and miners can try to force a change on bitcoin users that the users don't like. But so long as some miners mine the version that users prefer, it is the users (as an entire group) who have ultimate control. And I think that's pretty cool.

Bitcoin became successful because of the initial trades done in the currency. What first started as a crazy experiment was connected to the real world by people selling actual goods for Bitcoin (for example the infamous 10k BTC pizza). Even if initial trade was purely done for fun or out of curiosity it established a trade value for Bitcoin. Bitcoin's acceptance as a currency is the result of free market dynamics that formed around an artificial set of rules (the Bitcoin protocol).

Bitcoin is not directly controlled by anyone. However, fullnode-operators, miners and developers exert indirect control over Bitcoin. In terms of power the position of large mining pools and Bitcoin developers is the strongest, because they can make decisions on the networks functionality - albeit not to an unlimited degree.

ya.ya.yo!

Some people can influence the price of bitcoin if they have enough of it. However, the point of bitcoin was to be independent of any government or bank, so it belongs to the people.
