For those, who wait BTC to "skyrocket" again.

[dohh]

Wow, thanks for sharing the latest news, only half a year old. There is no evidence that Bitcoin is manipulated any more than other markets, after all, where there is an opportunity for manipulation, people will surely exploit it. Also, the website is known for extreme clickbaiting, inflating the truth and outright fabricating stories. Believe it when it's proven, not when it is rumored.

These "old" news show, how vulnerable is "decentralized" concepts. Now too, no one quarantees trustworthyness of exchange mediums.

Better dont. Its just a scam, no more. It has not got any better, than mt gox. If anything, it goes only worse. BTC is possibly the biggest monetary crime of all time.

first of all The website showing porn ads in their website, I won't be taking their content seriously and for the manipulation part yes we know the price is manipulated as the crypto market is very tiny at the moment and anyone with big money can manipulate its nothing new in that.

But that does not hinder the credibility and value of bitcoin it will have its rally again not parabolic maybe but it will grow steadily for sure.

I believe porn ads come from Your own browsing... habits? The Sun itself is quite well known mainstream news platvorm.

For those unfamiliar with UK media, the sun is a joke newspaper fill of BS news and naked ladies, just ignore the shite and consider it an interesting read

Absolutely, as soon as i saw the link to the SUN site i straight away knew
not to take it seriously. The article is just sensational garbage.

The opening paragraph is indecisive by using a little word "may" (because it is inconclusive)

"THE SPIKE in Bitcoin prices last year that saw the virtual currency peak at almost $20,000
per coin may have been a result of shady price manipulation, a new study has found.'

I didnt bother to read further.

So You say, BTC price peak for few days at the end on 2017 was not a scam, but a healthy market reaction?

Right. They only speak according to their brains and do not understand how bitcoin grows strong. They assume that when the value of bitcoin drops, it means that bitcoin has been abandoned by its fans. Lol

Everyone has their own interests, even though the price is $ 4000 / btc I don't hesitate to buy it again, because bitcoin is still needed and will run as it should.

Oh Plea-ease! If You want to be blindfolded, go ahead. At least dont speak nonsense...

BTC is not abandoned, neither it does not grow anywhere. https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/bitcoin-transactions.html

Same whales and "microinvestors" move same amount of transaction for last 2 years, only blockchain grows and grows.

This is how the whales got their money: https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/bitcoin-mining_profitability.html

And all that happens now: they are selling their coins away for real hardearned cash for idiots, who then again, try to find a Greater Fool for recovering losses...

Not my arguments are "lol", but the "investors", who bought BTC at 17K and ofc course John McAfee for promising to eat his own dick, if BTC wont reach to 100K.

I'm a trader, and I have my own analysis. I don't see anything wrong with bitinfocharts.com based on transactions, some people hold it back. You will understand my point.

Many traders are afraid of losing their money, but that is an opportunity for some people. I would not say that bitcoin will be a "bull run" but I still have the belief that bitcoin can make money. https://coincheckup.com/analysis/github

I don't see any signs of btc falling in the nearest future. We are now in the bear market, and I must say it's way weaker now compared to the previous one. This makes me think we're not yet at the bottom. But again, btc has an unnaturally strong support at $6000, as if somebody doesn't want it to fall below that mark. So we may see a long-long sideways until btc finally starts to grow. But it's highly unlikely btc will scam, at least in the next few years.

There's nothing you can do about it. Even if you'll run a signature campaign saying bitcoin is a scam is still useless. True believers of the technology will remain strong despite the FUD circulating in this forum such as your post.

I just wonder whats your personal motive in spreading such negative topic. I can clearly say that you're one of the haters. Peace!

[bitbunnny]

Monetary crime, ha, ha! 
What a fullish posts people are wrighting.
Before you come here with such theories you better inform and educate yourself. Also, from your bitterness I would say you've suffered some losses but don't blaim Bitcoin for your bad financial decisions.
That reminds me on people who lose on stock exchange and blaim other for that.

The recovery of the BTC and cryptocurrency markets will take a long time, and many people think it will take at least two years!
HODL's own cryptocurrency, for two years, can expect BTC to take off!

I think that this news is old and has been denied, so it is not important, and there is no impact on the market, the situation is now stable

Very good question. My personal motive is ... quite hard to explain. I have never bought or sold a single satoshi. I assume, its just my internal compass of justice. While 90+ % of posts in this forum are BTC-positive, as long as they let me, I write critical posts, because people have right to know the risks, when they give a real money away.

BTC can not be scaled, I have argumented this is so many posts, Im not going to do it here again.

FUD? Well... much smarter and greater men share my opinion. https://www.bloomberg.com/features/bitcoin-bulls-bears/
You may want to read the quotes there... What if they are not wrong? what if IT IS the biggest scam in human history? What would be the value of my purpose then instead of "FUD"?

No matter what you say, those people who are waiting and bought at the top will always wait for it to happen because they don't want to lose all of their tradings.

[Crypto_Samuel]

Some of the experts believe, that DLTs will have a massive part to play in the future of BTC. It might lead to public open ledgers and their native cryptocurrencies like bitcoin replacing the fiat currency system, and a growing share of the public transitions from government-issued currency to public cryptocurrencies. In this scenario, BTC is likely to go up and up. We'll see if it's true, anyway, to my mind, bitcoin is very unlikely to "die out" or go down a lot.

Some may actually have a brain, I do believe in human adaption.

[FallenBtcAngel]

Btc is definitely not a scam, although fraud is possible in the blockchain field. However, btc is a great investment opportunity, especially now, when the price is close to the bottom.

[thankyoulord]

i read the article and i must say it doesn't add up. Bitcoin will skyrocket again and now that bitcoin price is down, it is the best time to buy more. I advice to buy now that price is down

Btc is different from other cryptos because btc is a highly volatile type of coin . that simply means it can fluctuate from time to time in just a matter of short time  therfor there's no really need to wait for two year or more just to experience an increase .

Another fake news and miss interpret by article writers and plus some FUD people who want bitcoin to dump more, This is not happening LOL! If bitcoin falls, so as the entire crypto market. Bitcoin will still rise just have faith to it.

its not new to see a fake news like this but no matter how many fake news they will release , i think people are already immune with it .  public knows that this is just another tactic to take the price down .

Anyway , the price is already down so there's no need to worry .  lol

[Marbelli]

It seems to me that this is just a stuffing of negative iformation. in the near future, bitcoin will become the main crypto currency in the world
