Do you think the markets are being manipulated right now?

[zhekinsp]

Why? Why not

I've heard both sides of the argument and to a certain extent, they both make sense more or less.

Thoughts?

Yes surely it was manipulated by the bigwhales to buy bitcoin at the bottom level and the manipulation is done by the ad bans in the reputed online platforms like twitter,google and facebook.So we also can use this condition in our favour just bu now and there is a little bit price bump from yeterday price so hope it will continue.

[JVC]

Yes, crypto trading will be like the forex markets imo

[rucapri0]

I think that this is pointless reasoning. We, after all, most likely will not know how things really are.

I think people in the market right now is confusing to see the price in every coin because every coin is not increased or decrease and only stay at the price now. only one or two coins that is increasing but it's not too high and the bitcoin price tend to decrease more and more without giving a signal to increase back. people which trade bitcoin pair usdt is not believed that the price decreases only and cannot increase back and some of them make a lost huge money.

Thinking out loud....
Den Larimen creates a rival eht in the form of EOS, and collects from sale of its tokens eth, imagine how much eth he has in his hands, and how he can manipulate the price

Markets are definitely manipulated, whether by design or outlying factors, each plays a crucial role to the same effect.

I would not believe this to be the case earlier but I started to believe nowadays. causing the market to reduce the volume of money and sell people at a loss price.

Yes now more people are confused and they think that selling is a good choice. When it should be when conditions like this then we should be patient. With patience then we can make the right decision. Just imagine when we all do panic action in a lot of intensity then it will only lower the level of confidence in Bitcoin. So continue to use Bitcoin and when we can intensely use Bitcoin in our financial transactions then it will help the Bitcoin price get better.

The crypto markets have been manipulated from the start. And you wouldn't get this kind of volatility you see in crypto markets without any manipulation. In fact I would say that this manipulation is good for the markets as this is what attracts everyone to the crypto world.

[Experia]

It can be , because if someone were holding a huge amount of bitcoin that is enough to control the price it can be happen , they will sell and convert it to fiat and it they want to pump the price they will buy more coins .

Yes, the liquidity of all cryptocurrencies are relatively small. 2000 btc selling is enough to influence the market. Many whales has a lot of btc that can influence the market. But for smart people they can get advantage in any condition.

Yes , this is the truth currently that what going on in the market of cryptourrency  and also we can see that it is a type of the pump and dump that was done by many channels in the past but now that trend of pump of altcoins gone and now big whales of bitcoin holders are doing Thier work to dump bitcoin and making lots of profit .
But in Actual in my opinion we should not see such types of dump and also we should not go with dump sell Beca and in this way we will only face loss and nothing  , so why not we should hold our bitcoin until we got profit instead to get loss .
Such types of manipulation were not common in old times but now this is much common which is truth because in these days no negative news about cryptourrency are coming but still dump is going on , so we should remain careful from manipulation .

[Rupcrypto]

Yes i thik it always been like this! Big players in financial institutions like CME and wallstreet have been manipulating with various News flying around about  Crypto ads ban that's enough for this whole dump being faced every day

Personally i think the markets are being manipulated. Markets are always manipulated. Perhaps now these are shareholders Google, Twitter, Facebook and Yandex.
RACIB along with industry associations in Korea and China are planning to sue Google, Twitter, Facebook and Yandex for refusing to place cryptocurrency advertising in May. The actions of these four tech companies have negatively affected the crypto market.
That's what they write:
“We believe that this is a use of the monopoly position of these four companies, which have entered into a cartel agreement with each other in order to manipulate the market. The ban from these four organizations has led to a significant drop in the market in recent months.”

[Nahl]

i don't have valid proof that the market of crypto are being manipulated by some people but on my predictions yes it could be manipulate that some of people who have big capital of amount can be do that and usually they can take the advantages from technical issue regarding crypto related

[Regar]

I learned from a mentor, that volatile in the market are the point of it volatile are the reasons investor and trader take profit, and every market always have up and down time. always enter in dip position. at least we have try.

Thoughts?

Seeing the coin graphs, it appears almost all the cryptocurrencies rise together and when falling, do so together. But seeing it from a technical point of view, the price is influenced by the demand in market and the recent rise in threats from governments.

Do you think the markets are being manipulated right now?

Of course, it's manipulated. The crypto market will be under manipulations until it won't be regulated by the strict laws. This happens on any unregulated markets. One of the main reasons why rich investors buy the media is to use them for their own purposes, one of them is manipulation.

[Tilbrook007]

As long as there is Tether they will be manipulated.

[Leona Lewis]

Yes, crypto market is definetely manipulated by big players. They even spread positive/negative news due to buy/sell coins for the price they like.
