Who controls the market?

[Madara_Uchiha]

Most people who come to the crypto-currency market are looking for easy profits here and most of them do not care about the structure of the crypto-currency and the benefits and convenience that they can bring to people.

cryptocurrency prices in this market are usually affected by the very high total supply and demand for bitcoin but for now the market price can also be affected by bad news that makes these traders panic so that it will cause up and down movements in the existing prices in the market.

Supply and demand doesn’t control the market. It just affects the market value of a coin. In my opinion the whales controls the market because their investment is so big that the can change the price of any coin according to their well. In my country there are big money exchangers who control the prices of different currencies. They have the keys of currency market.

and this why many people and beginner investor join in cryptocurrency market.but unfortunately they didnt consider about the risk , they just thinking about profit.and forget about who control the market that could make market moved.

Traders and Specially Buyers, If theres no Buyers and Sellers the price of a coin on market might go down because theres no Volume on a trade specially when you are going to sell tokens but sadly no buyers like the price was $10,000 but theres no buyers so U cant still sell it.

Traders and buyers run the market and do not control the market. There are some people who controls the crypto market and which is not acceptable to investors. When I know that the price is manipulated and big investors change the market according to their wishes I will never invest in it because I know that they will never let me make money from my investment.

[jademaxsuy]

No one controlled the market because it is being dictated by the investors of that certain crypto. However, thus individuals who had contributed for the market price increase with relatively huge amount of crypto invested could really move market price depending on their trading volumes made.

The formation of stigma from speculators, especially large investors, is able to react to price developments, this does not give too much impact if those who do it are small investors.

whales are assumed to be able to control price fluctuations in the minds of ordinary people, but the fundamentals will break the deadlock and no one will claim this to be true.

rhythmic concentration of trading volume every day is indeed the only benchmark for market control. CEO exchanges also cannot intervene in this case because they only focus on fees for company profits.

Less than 1% of people control 55% of the world's bitcoin.
This is the reason why bitcoin prices fluctuate wildly and are easily manipulated.
In fact, many people think that the bitcoin market is controlled by one or two market makers.

maybe controller in market was changed.today we see and heard that big finance firm come to cryptocurrency market.maybe they become controller in market now.

[Mophadiarus]

Crypto holders will control the crypto market. Or maybe the boss of finance. What do you think?

[BigTeeths]

Nothing controls the market but there are large influential groups or whales that manipulates it. It is decentralized but we can't still stop some huge exchanges who let themselves get used by other people who used force or money to make things happen on what they want it to be. Though it is going to be much harder for them because it is bitcoin.

[sinkfish]

market is no control by anyone. it can be manipulated, it can be control in small amount through exchanges. but not all in total. unless some one willing to take over the market with billion dollars, but at most they can only manipulate the price. not the blockchain or control over the system.

This is a sad truth, its just because the crypto market is still young and not widespreaded yet, also its marketcap and volume is very small compared to stock and other markets.

[lauder_larger]

It is decentralized so in essence no one entity controls it. That is the basis and ideal of crypto currency operating in an ideal world. I think the control is to the people who actually owns the coins and holds it. Do lon as there are many floating unsold coins or coins that are just basically sleeping then you will see substantial movement from it price wise.

I think the major controller of cryptocurrency is exchange because once you listed your ICO in exchange then you have no control on it. Many cryptos together make crypto market and I can say that crypto market is controlled by exchanges. On the other hand I can also say that big whales also control the market because they can change the prices of different coins.

May be you are right that crypto is decentralized but decentralization doesn’t mean that nobody can control the crypto market. If there is no one to control the market then who fix the prices of coins. I admit that there are some monopolists who control the crypto market and fluctuate the price as they want. Big investors never let small investors to make money.

[melfwaz]

I think they are Bitcoin holders. These are the people who will manipulate the market to enrich themselves. Unfortunately, our market has not included the SEC to protect investors. So the manipulation always takes place, we need to carefully consider before investing.

Yeah they are bitcoin and Altcoin holders and you should know who can hold big quantity of bitcoin and Altcoin. They are only big investors and big companies. They change the price when they want. Small investors cannot do anything about this because the keys of crypto market are in their hands. That why most of the investors lost their money. Manipulation destroyed cryptocurrency.

[satriagedhe]

i think all people who join crypto that controls the market , the holder that make price rise up and the dumper that make price down

[South Park]

Most of the people don't care if a currency is decentralized or not and don't what it means too. They are just interested to make profits, no matter how. They jump on the new flower of the month, invest some cash and sit down until the flower blooms.
How it works, or what it is exactly doesn't matter to them

I am agree with you. Most people just want to make profits from their speculation. But i do believe that market not manipulated because cryptocurrency is decentralized and the price determined by supply and demand in market

It should be obvious that there is some level of manipulation going on in cryptocurrencies, we do not know exactly how big it is but it is obvious that it exists, I say this because we have very strong entities in the form of exchanges and miners that have huge supplies of coins and as you say the price of cryptocurrencies is determined by the law of supply and demand.

[Leocrypto da Vinci]

The crypto market is still very small, so it's inevitable that big players still have a lot of control.
In forex this does not happen, and the oscillations are always minimal.
However, it becomes increasingly difficult, so it seems to me that the market has been more stable in recent times.

[Sebas.tian]

I doubt even the whales have control over the market. In fact, no one can control it. It can though be influenced by entities, institutions or a person or a group. As long as crypto is decentralised, no one can and will control it.

[darkangel020716]

Remember, this whole thing about crypto is largely decentralized, thus, there is no single authoritative body in control of the crypto market. Although there are few centralized platforms among crypto, the market is largely influenced by the efforts and influence of the users of crypto. How well sellers and buyers treat the coins on the market affect the performance of the market.

Well if they don't have single authoritative body control in crypto then why are so many adoption? Why it has a lot of people who uses it if no one uses crypto do you think it will became popular? Do you think the price of it is like the price we have now? I will tell you that we (people) are controlling the price of it even they say that it was whales but it was totally the people. Sometimes people doesn't have any care on the price of the market as long as they have income on it because they believe that what happen in the market will be back into normal.

[rickyNmorty]

It is normal for people and institutions with a large crypto portfolio to have the power to influence the market. I can't say that the crypto market is being fully controlled but they are make to effective the prices the rising and down.

I agree. Bitcoin market is composed of million users in which I can say everyone has a control into it. But then those people who have a lot of investment, or something wth huge crypto portfolio will have the power that can even manipulate the market. But then it is not necessary that they are the pne in control rather they just have an effect.
