Market can be manipulated?

[HansakaMadushan]

I believe it's certainly feasible, controlling the cost of coins for individual or gathering pick up, that is typical in a business, in some cases this is no mystery any longer, a few people are starting to comprehend this example of control amusement, I think the most ideal approach to conquer this is to keep down self and don't take an interest in their diversion plot.

[philX]

It is conceivable however I trust that it is simply inside a short matter of time and in the event that you are holding a colossal measure of token at that point all of a sudden chose to offer every last bit of it at a low cost. Such act will make the crypto advertise fall however I do question that the landfill will keep going for a week and more probable inside only a solitary day particularly if the token has a huge market capital and token dissemination.

[ruthbabe]

I think that only large investors can manipulate the price of cryptocurrency.

I completely disagree. Maybe you did not read the news and you hurriedly jumped out with your conclusion. When the news broke out about the Bitcoin Price Manipulation in 2017 and surfaced in the different online media outlets, the US Justice Department has started a criminal probe into the matter.

"The investigation is focused on illegal practices that can influence prices -- such as spoofing, or flooding the market with fake orders to trick other traders into buying or selling, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the review is private. Federal prosecutors are working with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, a financial regulator that oversees derivatives tied to Bitcoin." See more for yourself here.

It is a small market and very sensitive on every movement on exchanges. The market can be manipulated on many ways: for example big selling orders can initiate panic selling or some negative or positive news can also  influence the behavior of market participants.

[biletskiy]

Yeah, sure. First of all, they use manipulation through the media: Internet Newspapers, TV.

The real manipulators are these whales, which have got almost 90%+ of Bitcoins and the leading cryptocurrencies in their hands. I suppose that these manipulations will be never stopped. Thus, we all have to take it.

[ronsaldo]

Yes it can ! But market's management team can;t do it. They cannot manipulate it because their only work is to monitor the requests of their market traders and to update the traders of what's new about their project. The one who can manipulate it is us, we traders have the power to manipulate coins' prices in crypto exchanges because we are the one who is trading the coins on it.

[dammytol]

It is not a new thing that a lot of things can get involve in manipulating the market or the price of a coin or token 1 exchange 2 developers 3 coinmarketcap have once or twice down some manipulation on traders and investors around the world too

[Fedollam]

All financial markets in a varying degree are exposed to manipulations from whales of the market. It is a secret only for beginners,old residents always know about it.

[DreamerJ]

I'm thinking that until the market is regulated, it can be  manipulated by big traders. Bitcoin now is a good example..

[LinkinPrak]

It is true that the market can be manipulated. I also think that this market is very easy to manipulate. This market can be easily manipulated by people who have large capital. In addition to people with large capital, the market can be manipulated by many people who work together to achieve the market conditions that they want. Usually people who manipulate this market play buying and selling with fantastic prices to attract enthusiasts of other crypto currency players. When conditions are appropriate then they will take the opportunity to get big profits. But people who play market manipulation must have an intelligent strategy so as not to misread profit opportunities.

[happy weblancer]

Certainly, someone manipulates the crypto market. This is obvious, otherwise the market wouldn’t behave this way: it unfoundedly falls and grows unjustifiably. But who exactly does it, it's hard to say. I think the market is influenced by several sources. It’s possible that these sources are related, otherwise the market in general would be chaotic.

[Vladique]

The market is manipulated and this is a fact. I have seen and read a lot of information about this. We will put on manipulation will be such that we will see growth

[polyballz]

Latest article by www.wired.co.uk stated that a newspaper by researchers  at the University of Texas at Austin's department of finance indicates that someone at Bitfinex cryptocurrency exchange may have artificially inflated the price of coins including bitcoin, ether, and Zcash. The responsible for this appears to have been Tether, a cryptocurrency with the same CEO as Bitfinex.
What are your thoughts about this? Do you think they really manipulated the price? Is it possible?

Price manipulation in my opinion maybe if you are a trader who holds a large number of supply tokens you can move the whales the market can easily control the market because they have a large number of coins.

[billy.ryoko]

I also want to know is this possible control by someone, I can't believe the cryptocurrencies market have declined over the year, but I think it is possible to control price only in one exchange, but it seems impossible to control the market price different exchange in the same time.

[feranmi2018]

Yes it is more obvious now than in the past that the whole market can be manipulate by a whole lot of factors ... Exchanges and coin developers and whales are not left out of this whole thing

[yukihirasouma]

yes market can be manipulated, manipulated prices often occur by rich trader and the developer team coin/token but you must know price manipulated maybe for pay the new exchange.

[leetcoiner]

Why not? Having sufficient volumes distributed among several participants it is completely possible to manipulate the market. In other words, large amounts of money are needed to influence the market, a smart team and concerted synchronized actions.

[austinsku]

Crypto currency needs to be improved in different areas, and people react with interest to every technical innovation. The currency in which a significant improvement is realized has a high chance of getting into the top already next year

[Li-Fox]

I think that all the same manipulations are possible. Because there have been a lot of coincidences about this. Big uncles control the crypto currency it's true.

[RandyGamage]

of course can, this is what happens now in the crypto market i think. early crypto investors got plenty of bitcoin so they can control the market. all the news are positive, but market is still bearish , because whales don't want market to move up.
