You are an old member of Bitcointalk , it cant be the firs time you have heard of this .
In fact, most of the cryto market is completely fake.
One of many many articles addressing this issue: https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitwise-calls-out-to-sec-95-of-bitcoin-trade-volume-is-fake-real-market-is-or

I have seen exchanges to manipulate the volume, it is well known to everybody. Exchange do it very often to bring them more volume and make them bigger one.
However, I have seen DeepOnion volume to be manipulated seriously in Kucoin, although Kucoin is one of my favorite exchange, I don't like this at all.

I haven't seen it but some of the forum members actually noticed and reported it. There were also articles that exposed it so everyone should be aware of that especially those who have been trading with crypto's for years. One example of the manipulation is when unforeseen halting of transactions and sort of 'maintenance' comes out. Notice it, when there are maintenance like what happened to Coinbase the price of bitcoin plunges.

there isn't much manipulation from my perspective but some people have reported that they have seen it in the past. Some of them do it to bring more investors to their website, increasing volume even if it's fake can bring more people in.

I've read a thread a while ago about manipulating the volumes in the exchange sites and it shows that there are fewer people who are actually trading. There are proofs that are shown that there is a possibility that it is being manipulated but about the price, I haven't seen anything about it and experienced it before. And if there is any, I wouldn't feel it since I am not losing that much before.

There has been several cases of price manipulation as well as volume manipulation by exchanges. Sometimes they even co-operate with coin pumpers and hold the deposit of coin which is being pumped. If you just see prices of coins in coinmarketcap in exchanges sections, some exchanges mostly have an insane price for the same thing.

whether i have thought about it? unfortunately one is constantly confronted with it and there are only very
few exchanges without these processes. although even there it can be only it is better veiled. partly it is so
obvious but we as users cannot defend ourselves against it

For an experienced trader, the market is manipulation. For ordinary people the market is where you can buy and sell.

Market manipulation has been part and parcel of nearly all Cryptos exchanges. The truth is just that some exchanges are more fair when it come to price manipulation. Exchanges have been accused of fake volume in the past and some of them are still actually parading fake volume and in real sense manipulating the market. I don't there is any way out of manipulation but rather crypto market will keep going in that direction.

Not only in crypto. I know a little about market manipulations in the stock market. When I came to crypto, I saw many similar things here. It is enough to read about the stock market to understand what is happening in the cryptocurrency market.
Cheating volumes, P & D are the most common phenomena on the market that will always be one way or another.

I have heard speculations that Bitmex is manipulating their leverage trading. Who knows if this is true but also you can´t disprove it and that means that this could be really possible. And they also make fraud with trading volumes.

I think most of the exchanges are doing this. You'll notice that price of BTC on coinmarketcap is $11,800 but the price is different on each exchanges. CMC is just averaging the price from the date they get from the total exchanges. Prices are manipulated in order to make its price pushed up despite the amount of BTC volume which is obviouslt too few but for those greedy who think arbitraging is easy, they end up going to the exchange.

This is the reason why centralized exchanges do not have any future. As soon as people realize advantages of DEXs will migrate into these exchanges.
Privacy, owneship of your keys, no regulations and manipulations should be motivation for people to make a change.

[lizarder]

for manipulation I experience it very often and most manipulation problems are crowdfunding tokens, especially tokens that still have dex are very prone to manipulation, and I also often benefit from manipulation, additionally finding an exchange that does this immediately shunned and monitored

There are exchanges that I have great doubts about. For example, there are very active bots in Kucoin. And I think they can somehow create market manipulation. Many other exchanges have the same thing.

[roadster213]

Manipulation happens regularly at various levels. Keep in mind that market making is not manipulation. Exchanges frequently make micro buys and swing price in certain directions and this is done intentionally to try to get a market reaction because ultimately their main goal is to increase trade volume.

OP, your title suggests that cryptocurrency exchanges are manipulating the price with in their platform. You may want to edit that.

I only see the "manipulation" by these big holders when they are also trading the coins that I am monitoring. It is actually fun to see when one tries to pump it and there's another trader trying to block it.

These days not only but from the beginning of the exchanges they are manipulating the funds of the investors in various way. The idle crypto that are lying in the exchanges for more than enough they convert it to fiat and lending the various parties. Also, whenever they can't fulfil the demand of the investors funds they are taking time lots.
