I think you can explain the suppressed Factom price without manipulation:
- Factom is all speculation, there is no guarantee people will use their blockchain and their services.
After all, for Factom clients, this is all considered as a "cost". publishing information on a blockchain is something they didn't do or need before, why pay this extra cost ? CEOs always want to reduce their costs,
and how can they be sure that this will be handled properly. What is the impact on the client business if Factom goes under ?
As long as there is no collective industry needs to publish data on a public blockchain nobody will do it.
There is no guarantee there will not ever be any competitor. Actually i think there are a lot of similar projects already under development.
- Those who believe in Factom have already bought. and a lot of them bought at much much cheaper level than today, and have been happy to sell some to take profits. Clear now that over 0.005 there were not enough buyers to absorb all those sales, and that many recent buyers had been tactical leveraged players, they are now out of the market.
- So unless there are good news from the client side that brings new players willing to move in, or that the existing longs are willing to add to their longs, the market will be subject to gyrations. With a lot of high conviction longs being burnt recently i doubt we see those guys trying their luck again, so...
- where from here short term ? sentiment is still fragile. M2 can give some hope and hype, but then again, so thought people long at 0.005 and above. I don't think we go back to the intraday lows 0.00306 from the other day, but 0.0036 is not impossible, especially in a scenario where BTC gets strong. 0.0038-0.0039 is I believe a good buy zone for short term traders if we get there. i think we will try at least once to climb to the Daily MA10 again.
the classic bearish divergence (RSI+Volume) on the weekly chart paints a very bleak medium term picture for FCT (0.0025 or even 0.0015 as targets, 2sigma Lower Bollinger Band value when the signal appeared)
Of course, charting has limited predicting powers in such a small market as FCT. What ultimately matters is actual clients using FCT. in that case, the price will be much much higher. If nobody uses it, it will go to 0.
The price might go to 0. Damn, when has ever price of any coin with at least 1 alive and kicking dev and not to mention this kind of team, went to 0. It s been a long time since I d seen this.
I seriously think community should start considering to leave negative trust rating to you, this much of trolling I have not seen in a long time. Then again, I come from an ex communist country, we used to execute people who didn't think "the proper" way. So maybe some of community members coming from more democratic societies should comment on this issue.
Let me repeat myself one more time.
YOU CANNOT HAVE MY COINS, SO STOP TRYING. NOT SELLING CAUSE I KNOW THEY RE WORTH MUCH, MUCH MORE.
