They want you to panic :->

[twiifm]

Yes, they want us to panic. I know a lot of people who try to avoid selling btc. This volatility and dropped prices make everyone sick. So we all should stay away from panic selling. We’ll see what happens in future. I hope everything will be fine.

[unorowest]

A lot of persons (whales) have made so much profit from bitcoin by manipulating the market to their favour,  this is not good for the cryptocurrency world, as it will cause it will give the banking sector more reasons they should not support Cryptocurrency.

[kidoseagle0312]

Yes, right, maybe this is the reason why many parties refuse crypto. It would be dangerous for a country if the country makes crypto as a currency, if crypto is very easy to manipulate, then a country that embraces crypto will be easily controlled by the evil mafia mafia.

all cyrpto are really done by the manipulators especially the whale investors are doing it most of the time. Then, the common or ordinary traders  have nothing to do with it, where most of them are getting panic when the market is declining, like what is happening now.

People are spreading all sort of FUDs on the internet in order to scare people from buying more coins. These panic behaviors I think wont go anywhere because anyone who knows much about cryptocurrencies will not panic no matter how the prices are going. 

[Asantewaa2000]

You are right senior, I sometimes ask myself that they say this BTC has crash, yet many individuals who financially strong are buying and investing heavily in it, what does this portray. They are just trying take what is rightfully ours by just allowing us to sell out the little we have to them cheaply.

[idex100]

That's the strategy they employ because they know that you are likely to sell from the emotion of fear and then loose money

[reinuscen]

Maybe, but do not panic, an investor should be confident and not panic when entering the market.

[princeyeboah]

Of course, that is the aim of the governments, banks, media and all that detest crypto - to cause FUD in the people. The governments play a major part in causing intensive FUD in order to ward off investors from crypto because they are scared of the power crypto gives to the people.
So called whales also adopt this strategy to make huge gains in crypto, however, this is done in a mild state in order to cause some weak hands to sell off their valuable coins at cheap prices for them to buy.

[felixesteban]

Bitcoin's price is being manipulated that's for sure. Most people make decisions with emotions, and the whales use it very well. The goal is to panic everyone. Therefore, it is necessary to act cautiously. The market consists of ups and downs, we need to know. If we're not strong enough, we'il give the whales a chance to eat us.

[Kwansimaa]

Yeah i think you are very right because if we are to panic and sell our bitcoins they would be glad to buy them at a cheaper price and later sell them at a higher price when the market rises.

[kemonojim]

to invest in Bitcoin or other cryptocurrency, you must be updated about news and knowledgeable to avoid panicking selling or buying.

[alonelyorange]

Many investor want to make you panic when bitcoin is drop, they have try to take chance when you sell your bitcoin at lower price because the investor have waiting for buying bitcoin at lower price. you have keep hold your asset when market is drop.

[Tinker18]

Panic attacks flood the mind with terrifying thoughts about one's physical condition and irrational fright about external catastrophes. "It creates this nightmare in your brain that your thoughts go back to says Hunt. "Whatever [fear] causes you anxiety—you will die, your house will be set on fire, you'll lose your job—you keep going back there."

[alizalela7]

I will not panic and will calmly wait for everyone and watch everyone action I will keep calm at the most possible calm to help me make the right decision.

[bryant.coleman]

do you panic because you can't forsake the Lord and he will not fail and we always believe him any any problems and disasters to come. so should you dont  panic because we have Lord to protect you.

WTF? Dude, this is a crypto-forum and not a meeting place of the religious nuts. We're discussing a serious issue here and these people want to dump their religious diarrhea. If you have anything productive to say about the panic selling and the current price decline, then please go ahead and post it.

[KenChanYu]

  Circulating inaccurate informations can trigger people to dread and panic selling even in a dirt cheap, so the big chances on gaining a massive profits will lost. At some point, those people who splitting nonsense news have a bright idea and selfish attitude as well. In fact, its a big oppurtunity to buy more altcoins for the bright future themselves.

[DavidNiva]

Yes, right, maybe this is the reason why many parties refuse crypto. It would be dangerous for a country if the country makes crypto as a currency, if crypto is very easy to manipulate, then a country that embraces crypto will be easily controlled by the evil mafia mafia.

it's wrong thinking, there is indeed a price movement but it's only a panic effect from bitcoin holders, they're not used to trading, there must be people who spread the word with the intention of making bitcoin owners panic and quickly selling their bitcoin and will cause the price to fall, do not think this is not a hoax, panic like this is the goal they really want, they will buy in large quantities at low prices and can be sure that prices will rise again and they can make a lot of profit, this is one trading strategy.

[foneex]

Please, make sure your awareness about the cryptocurrency to avoid this.

I could believe in that too.. There are not Bitcoin mining left and the token count stay same. So who want to have more BTC, should wait for the price drop. So there would be lots of speculations. I would recommend to all BTC holder; just HODL more.
