BTC Whales control one third of BTC
The Good news is the SEC are investigating Whales for market manipulation.
If the Justice department can link a whale to a futures position that was say SHORT and then find out the Whale dumped a mother load of BTC on the market it will be jail time for those involved.
The SEC are watching these Whales so they would want to be careful!
In my opinion the whales are running scared and that is why the market is in the doldrums.
ETH whales are also being watched carefully!

I believed that there is always a big whales on any kind of investments in which it is normal that there is conspiracy and manipulation of the price in the market specially in Crypto currencies investments because of their huge resources but still i believed that they can't destroy Bitcoin because not all conspirators and big whales are united in which this will always depend on who got in first. All we need to do is to ride on their games so that like them we could earn a lot.
