Who controls the market?

[Yara1]

In most cases user don't care if a currency is decentralizes of not all they look out for is how the currency is able to offer the easy and secured access to transactions across platform and when it come to crypto currency what control the market is the market force of demands.

[ecnalubma]

No doubt Markets are controlled by few people, using their greed and influence can really hurt this market and that’s the sad truth. Just like what happen few days ago during Bitcoin cash fork that hashwar thing, I don’t fully understand that argument but that is so immature to see dev’s fighting on twitter for dominance, its just so immature seeing them doing that, that’s why some investors lose their confidence in crypto that contributes to massive dumped.

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

Yeah, people only care about profits. No one cares whether the coin is decentralized or centralized, mineable or pre-mined. The majority of people don't give a shit about building a conducive environment for cryptocurrency, all they care about is their pockets.

[DAVETUN]

As you have rigthly stated, the market is decentralized, but control by investors in the cryptocurrency space, the higher your stake the  more  influence you have to control the  market trend, reason why the  whales in the space have more control power, as the space evolve Government might have power to regulate the space with a level of control.

The market is control by specific number people, I think those investors and holders are the one who are making the price high day by day, when in market most of people sell their coin so it makes the price down a little, but when high amount of people use to buy so it makes the price high once again,  it is just my own thinking some people says huge company investors are actually controlling the market.

Most of popular exchange are centralized and that's why they are trying to build up their own DEX for lesser issues regarding what the crypto community is discussing. Some of them are abusing their power to influence the market but to have total control of the market it has been said that the whales are doing it.

not all exchanges manipulated price.some of them to be honest operate their exchanges.and its proved several exchanges on korea passed audit from their goverment.its shows to us centralize exchanges not always bad.

[superstarbtc]

The market is controlled by big holders of bitcoin and positive news and more importantly wall street investors one tweet can bring thousands of bitcoins to market

[primeluck]

The government controls the forces of supply and demand,such as who is allowed to enter the market or what prices may be charge.Also from an economic perspective,institutional and retail investors control the market through what is essentially supply and demand.

[sirminesalot]

The investors, i, you, we are the one who control the market because the crypto value fluctuates because of us, the demand in the market will make the value of coin increasing and now market are experience big dump because there are many big investors fulling our their investment due to they are predicting that crypto will not exist more than a decade.

tor very precise and correct that you submit in my opinion the development of crypto currencies and markets that influence the invader itself

[Coolman4]

obviously no one control bitcoin price and if you are talking about price fall it is because of some government and some counties rejecting bitcoin , and other policy and sentiments causes price fluctuation   

[2chase]

There are two radically opposite points of view on this matter - some people believe that whales control the market, and the second category of people believes that no one controls the market at all. I think both of these opinions are wrong. As usual, the truth is always in the middle.

Half truths are worse than outright lies

If the truth is in the middle, it pretty much means that whales are still controlling the market (maybe, to a somewhat lesser degree). And there is nothing wrong or surprising in it. If you have enough financial leverage, it would be plain stupid not to exploit it to your advantage. And this is equally applicable to any market, not just crypto. In 1980 the Hunt brothers tried to corner the silver market. Ultimately they failed, and that's likely the reason we heard about them at all. If they succeeded, they would likely have remained unknown to the wider public as silence is the sound of money talking

Rather, I think that the two points of view expressed above are true depending on where we see market price movements. We can take the example that a new coin appears sometimes the price immediately increases dramatically and the event must be controlled by the popes.

[laredo7mm]

No one can control the market. we know that the market cannot be controlled by anyone they know, indeed they have a lot of money to be able to control prices against the current market. and also those who have power may also make an influential market this has become a natural thing and several times also happened

Don't always think badly about what is happening now because there will be good things that will arise from the many bad things that are happening right now.

of course because now good things are still just a lot of bad things that make good things covered so many people who think badly right now

[reality18]

No single body or institution owns absolute control over the market. The users and investors of Bitcoin are the driving force behind the movement of the market. This is largely due to the decentralized nature of cryptocurrency which eliminates all third party interruptions during transactions - this ensures speed.

[babarian]

Crypto currency until now cannot be controlled by anyone, not even the head of state.
therefore some countries cannot legalize the military currency in their countries. because the government cannot control the movements of this currency.

[ololajulo]

sometimes I dont want to beleive anyone was controlling the price but bringing high number of coin at a very low sell order to the market will definitely crash the market, who does that?. we saw a large number of this last year which can be considered manipulation. I dont want to believe the whales are doing this cause they are greedy owner of the coin but they might support it

[89squad]

Yes, no one really needs control now. People just want to get rich, for this they use cryptocurrencies and no more. And if the platforms are decentralized, people don’t even have any interest.
