Is Bitcoin Price Manipulated???

[BlackPanda]

If talking about manipulation then I will believe. This is because sometimes there are people who have a lot of money / Bitcoin / crypto and they do something in the market and then do price manipulation. Yes it may take an enormous amount to do so. But I make sure that the chances of manipulation remain, as long as there are people trying to make a profit in taking advantage of the situation then rapid price changes are still very likely. Not just a news that can change the price, someone with a certain purpose will also have the desire to be able to benefit from the difficulties faced by others.

It doesn't matter whether or not people here think it is being manipulated. The only thing that matters is that you can use this manipulation in your advantage as well, and that without doing any of the initial work yourself.

In some cases manipulation is so obvious, that it would be a waste of a precious opportunity to not capitalize on this. Bitcoin's market is a plaything for deep pockets, which is a good thing for those looking to ride their waves.

If not, then no problem, but don't get bothered then with how the market moves up and down. It's all part of the game we're in and we all "signed up" for that at the moment we entered the crypto space.

Sadly I am pretty much aware of general manipulations made on bitcoin price. Currency without country backup is never going to be that much safe except community trust. Some people try to play with trust so manipulate the price.

Actually, not just bitcoins that can be manipulated, stocks, gold, oil and other prices can be manipulated. The question is who can manipulate it? This is a very common secret that will continue to be a secret. That some people believe that there are certain groups that have influence in the world and have the ability to manipulate anything. Bitcoin is not a big thing for them because its total market cap is still far below gold.

Yesterday, today, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow we all don't know the market being manipulated or react naturally because personally, I can only feel the impact, and we don't know what's really happening with the market.

[jakagintiri]

It is very strange if there is a very high increase and a fairly rapid decline, of course suspected where bitcoin is vulnerable to manipulation by a very influential person and a very strong capital to manipulate it, but do not assume it directly on the other hand is a real Bitcoin price in itself decreased to increase as well, there are also many sources who think bitcoin is hard to manipulate by some people when it should be manipulated by all users very sure.

I do not know, but I do not think so. people buy bitcoin because they need it. if you feel that the bitcoin price is manipulated then you have to sell the bitcoin you have so you will not be stressed when something goes wrong.

Anyway I think this is the post regarding a cartel inside the crypto market. They manipulate other assets as well like gold and silver because of Bitcoin future and they are shorting it.

Well I do not buy it, This Conspiracy theorist always accuse something but they  can not provide any evidence about their claim. They might have their own agenda why they posted that topic. Probably they are the one who are shorting Bitcoin right now.

Ofcourse it's manipulated, that's what whales do. They can move the market significantly in no time. Up and down.

Or look at the volatility, having double digit % raises and falls in a day means it can still be easily manipulated. But it's getting harder every day as the market matures.

When we observe the market it is manipulated others do this to manipulate the market for them to have the profit. It is always volatile which really grab by many were they can trades on the price expected. So most should expects it can happen daily.

They manage to manipulate because of those people who can't find time to understand their investment, if they just know how the market works then manipulation can't be done easily, bitcoin is another way of investment yet also a currency that can be usable for those who knows how to use it for their
benefits, if all of us who followed and use bitcoin will use it accordingly, then this manipulation will not be tolerated, we can't deny the fact that this is
really happening but soon it will be removed.

If one person owns 70 percent or even 50 percent of bitcoin i think it can be manilulated by the majority holder but so far i know that the percentage of the ownership of bitcoin investment are pretty divided. So i guess this is bitcoin price manipulation is just mere speculation.

Manipulations doesn't have anything with ordinary people and their investments. Economy is like that, if you know laws of economy you know the ways how you can manipulate with any market. You need money and product, with people on right places you move the price in the way you wish by controlling supply and demand. Today we have so many news about everything, they have been used to create panic or fever. Manipulators are not alone, teams and groups of people can do a lot if they have funds.
Look at the young crypto market, take a look on pump and dump groups and what are they doing. Clear examples how manipulations works. That is the same like with any market, just for the bigger markets you need more money, more everything.
Today we are, people of the world, are objects of manipulation, everything is, society and system where we live support that, if you can understand what am I saying, many many people don't.

Most people know about BTC.  Well, what about MTC.  MTC is the symbol for marinecoin.  Marinecoin goes back to 2014 but the crypto world was not ready for it yet and the crypto market overall was suffering.  Marinecoin is dev-less artificial intelligence cryptocurrency that has low fees and eco-friendly.  Marinecoin is a completely fair coin that will be distributed evenly among paricipants of the ICO to give it true value.  The ICO only requires you to do proof of promotion to be part of the mtc ccommunity.  Have a look yourself if you want to be part of something revolutionary  marineco.in

Fall and increase in bitcoin price is due to investment cap. I think that there is nothing of manipulation in the price. I am very surprised that who will manipulate the price and with whom because bitcoin does not relate to a person, a company or even a country. It is just a matter of time and with the passage of time everything will be ok and the price will once again get its peak.    

[vintages]

I don't think it can be avoided. There are always people with enough assets to move the market and that applies even outside of bitcoin. We small fishes would have to learn how to swim with the waves these people create.

Exactly, I totally agree with your opinion; it can't really be avoided. The world has always been made up with the rich and the poor. Sometimes the rich manipulates the economy for their own gains and this is the same thing that is going on the world of cryptocurrency. But looking at it in another way, the poor can still benefit from this manipulation if they play their cards well and are vigilant.

[leea-1334]

Bitcoin price as a whole, impossible to manipulate. Bitcoin price on an exchange, depending on exchange, volume, amount of traders, amount of orders, amount of BTC, yes, they can be manipulated, but for a short time before everything corrects. See even supposed Mt Gox whales could not take the market down forever.

I hate all those altcoin hijacking Bitcoin thread by the way, sorry just had to say it. I have the alts I support but these people make alts seem worse than they are with their shill spam.

[GoldenLad]

The world has always been unfair to people who don't have much. Looking at how the price of cryptocurrency keeps fluctuating, You don't need a specialist to tell you that the market is being controlled by the bigger or whale investors. They pump and dump coin for their own gain and we the little  investors have no choice than to look up to them and hope they pumps it.

It is possible that big investors have manipulated the price and they want the whole stock to hold on low price and sell them out on high price. Everything is possible in this world. Nobody is trustable. Low investors have already lost most of their money in bitcoin because of the fall in the price. Nobody understands why the price fall too much in the last few months.

[adam1230]

Yes totally manipulated. Now they are going to say that their wallet hacked and hackers dumoing the bitcoin.
This is how they play the game and small investors going to lose on every wave.

[A1exander]

Yes, I think it is obvious. Look at the price changes during last couple of months. Clear pumps and dumps and often almost perfect flat regions between them.
