maybe, I hear from people if bitcoin prices in a market can be manipulated by someone, if you have a lot of money you can regulate the market to your advantage

OP, this is a stupid poll.  You need to define what manipulated means, because your mileage may vary.  Can whales change the price of bitcoin somewhat at whim?  Yes, because the market cap is small relative to the stock of Pfizer or Coca-Cola, for example.  Every buy/sell order manipulates the market to some extent. 

Do you mean by governments or something like that or the miners?  What do you mean?

it definitely is manipulated.

All it takes is a few guy who own a ton of it to sell / buy more at the same time
for it to move a bunch. Then people get spooked and it causes panic selling by others.

I am not sure but in my thinking what if a person/company buys a 1 million btc with a price of let's say $300. If that amount is enough to pump up the btc price to a certain amount then sell it again to that higher price, then how much profit they would make. Then dumping again that amount of btc will sure to drop price. If that is happening in the process then I can say bitcoin is a manipulated coin. Not controlled but manipulated.

the big exchangers(backed by their shit investors) are manipulating the market with their bots. Same as MTgox did it.

Bitstamp, BTC China, Huobi, Okcoin(already proved), Bitfinex(already proved).

Vote guys  Cool

It's manipulated, yes. But how deep do the strings of control and manipulation stretch? Do they reach all the way into Bitcoin's core?

Let's see how well this new BIP102 is received and we'll have our answer!
