Bitcoin prices are controlled. Accidentally or intentionally?

[EXtremeAEX]

I think that the main direction of the bitcoin price is controlled by whales. So this happens intentionally. Of course, I'm assuming that at some point in time the price may get out of control, but I'm sure it doesn't last long.

[cryptolidus]

Whales have significant funds which allow them to change the market trend in whatever direction
they want. We cannot beat them but we can ride the wave and make the manipulation to work into our favor as well.

The price of bitcoins is regulated intentionally, such a conclusion can be made on the basis that the price was almost $ 20,000 at the end of 2017.

The price of Bitcoin is depends on the circulation supply so this year January most of the whales are exchange to fait currency it was gradually move to downtrend. But actually some whales are intentionally create a dump and pump so we should not say completely because every year market was maintain a same pattern but this year only is not workout. It is proved the accidentally and internally controlled by Bitcoin price.

Bitcoin price is not controlled. Old investors are not stopped investing! Rather real investors are investing every day. Because this is the golden time to grab coins at a cheap rate! New investors are coming also. Small investors stopped investing otherwise everything okay. Bitcoin price if controlled then we can see a stable price, not this types of volatility.

OP you don't even know what you are talking about, the U-shaped chart you are talking about is not currently existing because what we are forming is a triangle formation which is neither bearish or bullish all formations are translations of what the market is going but it does not directly mean someone is moving the prices it maybe is natural or intentional but understanding the chart is what we will know where it will go. To add the U-shape formation you are talking about is called the cup and handle formation.

True, they are not controlled but you need to know that they are sometimes (or can be) manipulated easily. So, don't you think being able to manipulate means being able to control for at least short term? And if bitcoin price could have been controlled, we would not be seeing price stability. Instead we will be seeing more instability and those controlling it will be taking advantage of the price fluctuation.

I am not sure, but I can see trend showing that Bitcoin price manipulation is clearly affected by these whales which may holding the big chunk of Bitcoin.

Bitcoin's price is not controlled, only the price varies according to the flow. Nobody has such a power to control it. It is only a little effect that the whales or the states have been able to do, which is effective a few hours. I admit, the movement of the whales causes a revival in the market. But the last word is always in the community.

There is no doubt that the price of bitcoin is controlled by big investors which we call whales. They decide the future price of bitcoin and that why many people now do not invest their money in bitcoin. To see this market situation you will say that bitcoin is just a waste of time and money and there is no future of bitcoin. I don’t want to lose my money in such Ponzi scheme.

[cabron]

It must be intentionally because it must be lol. Those who holds huge amount of BTC can manipulate the price which can make those new holders sell their coins when they find out they are losing money and when they sell those whales are buying them. The more they get while the market is crashing the better for their investment which is why they deliberately do this to shake off the weak hands.

In order not to lose money, you can choose two ways.
The first is not to invest your money in a crypto currency.
The second is reasonable to invest money and in time to pick them up. So I, for example, for a long time already took away all the money invested in crypto currency. All that I have now is already profit from initial investments, which is constantly increasing. So you need to think wisely about such an investment and then you will not lose your money.

Yeah you are right and it is not only happen in cryptocurrency market but every market in the world. Big investors never let small investors to make money. In my country pharmaceutical whales do the same and if you want to start your own business, they will reduce their profit margin because they buy huge quantity and they can manage it but small investors are not capable of that.

[harbin55]

There are lots of rumors about this which I always see in the social media.
In my own perspective I think there is a possibility but it is very minimal to happen because the demands and supply in bitcoin is the one who controlled the price and not the riches person.

[mikhailkudig]

In my opinion, the prices of cryptocurrencies are controlled not by chance, because it is quite a convenient way to invest money.

[Jaci]

There are many people who believe that anyone can control Bitcoin. Who think this type of thinking is totally wrong because there is no organization that can control Bitcoin price. Bitcoin price depends entirely on buyers and sellers. When Bitcoin investment is growing on that time bitcoin price increase and when people start selling a lot of Bitcoin on that time Bitcoin prices going to dump.

[eann014]

Bitcoin cannot be controlled by anyone, it depends on a market on how bitcoin can people get interested with. Yeah, there are old investors that are no longer interested in bitcoin, why? because they've already lost a lot because of bitcoin drops fast last year after the ATH's.

[cryptoblazter]

Technically speaking, bitcoin's price can't be controlled because is mostly dependent on supply and demand. However, there are investors that take the opportunity of that concept by investing very huge amounts that may give them the power to manipulate the supply and demand. These investors are called whales. They take the opportunity of unregulated system of the bitcoin.

Yes, whales do huge manipulation to the price of bitcoin because of their huge fund that can buy and sell big amount to the market but if you would just sum up the "little" investors and trader of bitcoin we can theoretically say that it can reach for about 30-40%. Bitcoin is decentralized and so no one can really control the price but it varies due to the human behavior towards the market.

[LaurenProfi]

It seems to me intentionally, and the situation can be owned by people who have more than 50% of bitcoin, they can afford to play the price in the market ! To do dumps and the like , but this strictly my personal opinion !
