Who controls the crypto market?

[kolbalish]

 The system of cryptocurrency market is no one can regulate it specificly but it can be control by some factors as like big investors,more transactions,reliable positive response from others,mining exp etc.

[r32godzilla]

Actually no one controls the market totally.Earlier when China was dominating in the crypto market,chinese gamblers used to easily manipulate bitcoin price but later when bitcoin investors spread worldwide,they lost their control.Then comes the turn of Bcash which was created as well as fiercely pumped by roger ver but only to some extent.Now altcoin market remains still open for manipulation by big whales as they easily control altcoin prices because of its smaller volume.

[FedorIzmailov]

I think that whales deliberately overestimate and underestimate the cost of bitcoin

[LeetPoolsOP]

The course of the crypto currency is influenced by such factors as government policy in the sphere of cryptology, growth of interest and discussions around a particular crypto currency, news of developers and successful changes in the crypto currency, inclusion of coins on the exchange or in the list of payment assets of large companies.

[falaleev.ctepan]

Well, officially, no one controls the crypto market, but it's quiet logical that people who have millions of bucks can easily influence the price of some currencies, so we can assume that these people ("the whales") control the market.

[Teh-pucuk]

There really is a control that is a society, a large investor who sold coinnya simultaneously that may cause the price is down and vice versa. What else the world criptococurrancy market and in the real world ever so. .

[Malamok101]

Of course, investors are also involved and investors are also controlling the market when buying a coin increases its price when it holds and when they sell they also fall in price.

I have been following the crypto scene for the past year and sometimes even though some companies do well their token price drastically goes down and this is the same with btc too. People like john mcafee and roger ver are always talking about how we should get ready for the bullish market but yet the price keeps on decreasing and so i'm asking how and who controls the price. If there is anyone who might be running it?

Investors like US are the ones who control the market the higher the transactions we made in investing the higher the price of the crypto currencies the lesser transaction the lowerr the cost.

[jayveerastrullo]

Crypto markets or exchange websites are controlled by the users, and investors. We're the one who controls the market, the price goes up and down because of us. All trading and stuff happen with the price, the volume of it were caused by us.

John Mcafee is what you call a influencer, and promote crypto like selling pancakes. He even charge money per promotional cryptocurrency tweet. LOL.

If you are asking who's in control, this is a free market. But you may have heard that there are whales who can easily influence the market but there are so many other players are well that we can't say that someone from behind is running the show. You can even consider bitcoin miners, specially the big one's from China. However, as far as the price goes, it's still on us traders and investors hands who can determine the price, IMHO.

[valisa]

no one controls market movements, the price of a coin depends on the number of purchases and sales, maybe only people who have very much capital can control the cyrpto market, news also affects the movement of coin prices, many factors make prices rise and fall

[nicko122]

I think that all people who buy and sell coins, influence the market. The more coins are bought, the better for the market and the greater the popularity of the coin.

There is no one controlled crypto as I have heard.the users and the investors of this crypto who control it so it means,we as a users who handled the situation of crypto.its in our hand to control everything if we wanted to.

[cesuralp32]

although the crypto money market is decentralized, there are very large players in it. states, corporations, billionaires... I think they are a hangouts group among themselves

[iamMhew]

Crypto price control by all of the investors who held coins/tokens. Some of the investors are do a lot of trading everyday so the markets are seeing ups and down. And for my own opinion, markets can manipulate of whales who held a huge amount of coins/tokens, as they held a huge amount,  they can manipulate the price whenever they want.

[Gotumoot]

About 40% of all the bitcoins released today are in the hands of only a thousand people - the so-called "whales." With such a statement, the head of the department for the study of financial markets Aaron Brown.

Even you're a small holder, it does not matter. Holding a crypto does not mean that we're controlling crypto market. We're just running it. Remember that crypto is a decentralized currency, it means that it cannot be controlled or manipulated . Its just a speculations if someone say that crypto can be controlled.

[xena2]

Peoples, market control the price.  Supply and demand, more peoples to buy, the price will going up and vice versa.

i think it is the demand and need of the people that controls bitcoin market.  The price may decrease and increase depending on people's demand.

Ofcourse people control the market they manipulate it specially the people has lot of coin that was handle ad the people that are rich they has the power to control the market according to what they want, you must prepare for the bullish everytime because we didn't know when the bullish would be started so we must be prepare.

[Dswaggers]

Clearly, it has to be Mohammed Lee.

Now really... it's a free market. And an unregulated one. Entities with enough money can still play pump and dump games, whether we like it or not. Information war (and FUD) also helps... them.

I think no one controls the crypto market and it seems the demand and the need of people are truly controls the market. Even the big investors cannot control the market and the real reason why the price is up and down in the market is the number of percentage of people's demand.

The people in this porum call it "the pope" are those who have a lot of bitcoin in their ownership, and their capital is large. They can easily lower the market by removing large amounts of Bitcoin. The volume of Bitcoin currently on the market or exchange is relatively small compared to that in people's wallets.
