Market can be manipulated?

[ice098]

I'm 100% sure of it. I also hope that the market will be manipulated in the direction of the largest growth and then it will be possible to finally stop guessing about the existing or non-existing manipulation

For me I'm 100% sure that market is can manipulated by some investors because they are the ones who have a holding big share of cryptocurrency. Like if there are a lot individuals are selling crypto the market price is increasing but if many people are holding and buying their coins the price in the market is gradually decreasing. So I think the price are depend to those investors becausethey have a big shares or hold a bigger investment.

Obviously, it's just because the volume is so low. A billionaire or even high end millionaire could easily manipulate it.

The market could be manipulated and it is already manipulated. If you look at most prices the coins are not worth what they you would think.

Market manipulation happens all the time, not just in cryptos market but also in other markets such as stocks, commodity market, precious metals etc, it is just unfortunate that it is rampant with cryptos

[adekogbe]

The market can be manipulated and it is apparently not as hard as it seems because a lot of people follow the news and take in anything the media feeds them.
The big whales can manipulate the media and control what the people see And the resulting actions will be witnessed in the upward or downward movement of the market.

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?

Based from what I've read and learned from this forum, it is really possible to manipulate the price of any coin in the market and those people who have the ability to do that are called whales, they are people who holds the majority of the coins.

The story of Spoofy: this is really incredible research that shows we need more diverse players in the space if it will ever be taken seriously.

I think that this may well be a reality ....but we'll never know. )

of course i think yes, because I see without any bad or good news the market price can very quickly increase and decrease, so I believe the market can be manipulated.

Yes its true that the market is being manipulated since Tether came in the ecosystem. When tether became available in the market, Bitcoin manipulation became a disease in crypto. Since no one knows what is the real supply  of Tether,  they can manipulate the price so easily.

This is really happening and the market is completely dependent on the whales desire. The market is subject to manipulation and this is evident.

They don't even need to do a study, anyone who has been in the market even for a little while knows that market and price manipulation is very much real and that they can  do it at anytime. We all know it, a lot of people are banking on being able to follow the manipulation patterns to make a lot of profit, that is why we have whales, they are the ones that manipulate the price

In the market now most of the news is manipulation, so it was in all young markets. Don't panic.

[PastirmaliYumurta]

Already the market is being manipulated every day. People with a lot of money and pump groups are playing every day in the market as the cat plays with the mouse.

I believe that the crypto market can be manipulated, there are large owners of capital, which now buy crypto-currencies. And on the next growth of the market they will try to sell, at a price higher than they bought.

[danglinhdan18]

I would say quite a bit. There is absolutely no market that is not manipulated in some way, it is just the level of manipulation that differs. For the fact that this is an unregulated environment and a decentralized one, it makes it quite prone to being manipulated. It is probably a way for the whales to keep getting richer and richer, at the expense of the weak hands.

Let's accept the fact that market and cryptocurrency value are being manipulated by some group of big player who investing and know how to deal in cryptoworld ups and down.

[Burogh]

of course i think yes, because I see without any bad or good news the market price can very quickly increase and decrease, so I believe the market can be manipulated.

If people affecting on negatives news, i think its not manipulated, its happen because they are panic with the news and selling their coin as fast they can with any price. I am still believe the price can not manipulated because if manipulated, its need big capital

[Leetukyang]

Market can be manipulated by some big players, but I dont think that it can be manipulated by long term. It will be hard for some individuals to manipulate such a big thing like cryptoworld.

[Tamila]

 I can say that the cryptocurrency market is the most manipulative from all existing ones. Sometimes things happen that do not surrender to any rules - market analysis. So I do not exclude that quite different groups of people or campaigns can manipulate.

[Katystrong]

In my opinion, there will always be someone can manipulate the market and its price
