Any market can be manipulated, it is enough that the manipulator has enough money to cover the natural flow of the currency, whether it be fiduciary or difigital all are the margin of manipulation.

I think it could be, also not one time I saw the situation when everything  is falling at the same time, altcoins too, also everything is rising at the same time too

Conditionally to manipulate the market it is possible in several ways: on a news background, by means of technical receptions or a combination of these methods. playing on the rumors about some events that significantly affect the future of an asset (coin). Moreover, in regulated securities markets such manipulations are a direct violation of the laws of almost all developed countries and are subject to investigation in order to find the source of such rumors and punish. In the market, however, there is no regulation, and therefore no liability, and therefore it is very, very important to study in detail any news related to this area, including. their primary sources, since even large news portals can simply replicate the "duck" without going into details.

Where there is a lot of money, there are those people who manipulate and manage money with all the money. And for a crypto market with a small capitalization, this is very easy to do.

There are big whales in the market who can pump and dump at will, they do not care about new guys entering the space. Recent huge manipulation in eth prices is a big case in point.

Who has a lot of coins is the one who can manipulate the price. For example, someone issued their coins in the amount of 100 pieces to 1 dollar and brought them to the stock exchange. All coins belong to him, and he together with friends begins to resell them to each other, pushing the price up to 2, 5, 10 dollars.

This year everyone observed that the martek can be easily manipulated. we saw the biggest pump in December on nothing. And after that a big dump during the whole year, even when there were good news. I believe that this is a true manipulation. and this is very sad.

Any market can be manipulated. The cryptocurrency market is not an exception. Manipulate it, and we need only to play by their rules or forever to leave this market.

[restumaulana]

the market is always full of traps and surprises, and the advantage is that you are given a number of instructions and analysis tools that can be used to take advantage of every opportunity

Market can obviously manipulated. Base on the market expert people who have a large share of holdings regarding any coins has the capability to manipulate the market.

Of course, the crypto currency market is easy to manipulate, especially here at the forum. Constantly at the red market, someone starts panic.. one of the rules of investing is the ability to wait

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?

I believe it can because in crypto world anything is possible. Even in some exchanges the prices of the tokens are some manipulated because of the automatic trading bot that can buy and sell the tokens automatically. And the whales also have a massive influence in the market price.

Market can obviously manipulated. Base on the market expert people who have a large share of holdings regarding any coins has the capability to manipulate the market.

big people can do whatever they want, including manipulating the market, so we just follow the path and always monitor the market so as not to make wrong decisions. holding the best quality coins is the safest way to invest in crypto because coins like ETH or BTC will always be above the market.

[dgoswami12]

Absolutely yes , there are so many example of manipulation in market in past and recent days. From past I still remember oncd DGB was pumped badly and many people lost money. In recent times same happened with XRP. This are big examples but there are a lot of examples of manipulation of markets in certain alts.

I think that everything is manipulated by someone and the crypto market isn't an exception. To my mind, it is better to use crypto if you want to get a lot of money with time

I found a source about the alleged manipulation that you point out between Tether and Bitcoin, a study conducted by the University of Texas at Austin published on June 13, 2018
Bitcoin’s rise might be linked to price manipulation, study indicates

There has always been the theory, the experimentation, the test, and the result. As also the doubt that the crypto market is manipulated by large investors taking advantage of great advantages in saving their investments. However, both Universities that have dedicated their time and prestige to reveal the truth and here we have the results.

Today September 23, 2018 A new report published by the University of Queensland Business School reveals that there was no manipulation, there is no evidence between Tether's and bitcoin price movements. The investigation showed that in times of bearish movements. Tether token investors purchased Bitcoin with the idea of keeping the assets backed.

I think that sure it can be manipulated and to my mind, it is obvious that the market will be manipulated by someone all the time. Soon it will be regulated by the government all over the world

[gavikzal]

Of course the market is manipulated. Naively to believe that this is not so. Even now you can see the manipulation, if you look closely.
