The bitcoin price can be manipulated like other coins. The ZEC is well manipulated at the moment.

That is what i observed now with ZEC. There is too much promotion and new thread being created aside from hijacking other thread  Grin  For any any coin can be manipulated, I say Yes. If you have capital, you can control the price movement.

I know there are many big players who manipulate bitcoin price and make huge profits but can we the bitcointalk members also form a cartel and let bitcoin price never fall?is it possible that we manipulate price as I am sure most of bitcoin users visit this forum

Not sure if most of BTC users visit this forum really. I know some people who are using Bitcoin on almost daily basis and have no idea about this forum's existence.

But even if we are a community which is large enough to manipulate the price of BTC why would we do that? I can see no point in this action since we are not a closed secret society and anybody from any place in the world can read what's posted here.

Why are we going to do that? Maybe because we all want bitcoin to succeed. Maybe because we all want to get profits in our investments by making the price of bitcoin higher. There's a lot of reason to do so and everything is pointed towards profits for all of us. The real question is, why are we not doing it? I haven't seen a thread in this place that's about making all of us united and then pump the price of bitcoin.

I am not even sure if the buyers are the ones who change the bitcoin price the most.
I would say that it's the miners. Like in the oil market the opec do.
By deciding how many of your mined coins you put into the market I think it is the most efficient way to give the bitcoin price its direction.

I think there is a group of people who can manipulate it that we can call are whales .. they are always planning to attract people to invest bitcoin if they want to do that they are waiting for the right time to invest in bitcoin after that they do marketing strategy making some threads here and other forum that the price is increasing and better to invest just like that after the price is increase high enough those whales will sell their hold bitcoins..
That can affect the value..

the problem is bitcointalk is not a central organization, bitcointalk is only forum, each mmember can make pump analisys and dump analisys, it's diffirent with pump group, he is a real organitazion to make market rise or fail.
Correct here in bitcointalk.org we only collect the information about bitcoin value, but i do not know if there is pump group or you mean the whales of bitcoin community they are the only organization can do manipulate the value day by day.
If there's a group, I'm sure we are not included or we would not know them, they are a group of rich people or commonly known as whales here. We will only observe on the price as they have the power now, if they will manipulate then we predict what will happen next to make money in trading.

The bitcoin price can be manipulated like other coins. The ZEC is well manipulated at the moment.

Not likely with the current market capitalization!! It would absolutely be possible with an altcoin though.

Aka:
*PUMP AND DUMP*

Want to do it solo? Find a shitcoin and buy $500 worth every day for 10-30 days then sell sell sell!
Exactly this happened yesterday with major new project - Iconomi. I was browsing coin markets cap and noticed that Iconomi debuted strong as 10th biggest coin.
Today I checked the market and this coin is already 21th - it was almost 20% price drop in one day.

I just glad that bitcoin market capitalization is so high than small pumping groups can't do much anymore.

Unless you have a large amount of money,
or were able to coordinate a very large amount of people,
it would be hard.
Your competition is the Chinese mining companies and whales who have desires to move the price for their own gains.
Nothing is impossible, but it would certainly take a large amount of planning and dedication.
That's good only if you are whales and you are holding a big portion of your bitcoin. It is not hard to do that as money is power but as of the current standing of the market, the price is increasing and it will make the manipulation power of the whales to be lessen.

Well whales will always be able to join their power and make price jump, but if the market isnt ready those pump wont last, thats the reality, a milionaire can pump bitcoin, but the risk to those are high, community support will always be in the other side, if they dont accept the new price someone will dump their coins.
I think for the moment where the bitcoin users still quite a bit of billionaire could have manipulated the price of pump prices as they only need to panic buying by raising the price a little, and then the pump will occur. yeah of course the risk is great because it is very likely to fail
You don't need a billionaire to manipulate te Bitcoin price, all you need is maybe a few hundred thousand or million and with good enough bots you'll be able to make a fair amount of change occur, and likely a fair amount of money as well.

Individually, without extreme coordination, it is impossible to manipulate the price. Assuming you're an average person.
I think it would have more capital would be better right? have capital that is too small will certainly harm you if there is a sudden need for funds actually your capital have been exhausted? so I think it needs huge funds to prepare everything needed for manipulation price. so you get multiple benefits

I am sure that we can not manipulate the price of Bitcoin. Or you need to own a very large amount of Bitcoins to set the price for it
I guess simply having connections can make a difference. You don't have to own a large amount of bitcoins to make the market move, you just have to find another person that is interested in investing at something new. Connection is really important in rich people because that's what makes their business more known to people. In a way, it can also be used to pump the price of bitcoin. I guess this is only applicable to people who knows someone rich in real life or maybe someone who is very influential in real life.

Of course we can't manipulate bitcoin's price but we can do something to change it by its demand but still that it not going to be a big change.

But the only few big traders or hoarders of bitcoin are the ones who has the most power to control and manipulate the price of bitcoin.

And I like how they are manipulating bitcoin's price now, because it is pumping.

The vast number needed to equal some whales would be a big issue and it would be very hard to implement without some kind of automated system. Just time zone alone would create a issue for us to set these walls up.
The more people you need the more the potential for hiccups and going against a much smaller unit,brings way to many issues where we could get hosed.

Why the prices is changing soo much, what you think its happening, the big miners are pushing the price up once again the same way they did last year around this time as well, the result were a jump from 250 to 400 dollars and now we are on the same train once again, soo January should reach and hit the 800 dollars.
I think there won't be big difference between today's price of bitcoin in january. Maybe the situation is samr but bitcoin's price is more stable now but I hope your prediction will be true 😃 Than I will have great profit but I am afraid that reality will be different from ehat you said. And I agree you in fact that big miners are controlling it's price halfly, I think.
There are new people joining bitcoin all days, meaning new fresh money, but the miners does have huge capital and they make those pression into the price and wait the market support, all wanna big values at bitcoin. I might be wrong but i really do believe bitcoin will reach those values.

Massive price drop coming...

Manipulate bitcoin is too hard right now you need to have more money if you want the price go increase,and if you want to dump it you will also need too much supply of btc which is hard to have now.
Just leave that to the whales, we cannot do that under our present situation, if the price will be manipulated for the success of bitcoin then there is nothing to complain about that as most likely that's what whales are doing, they manipulate to increase the price more.

True. They are owning a lot of bitcoins so they dont to lose even just for a dollar. They will use their powers for that. With cooperation of many whales it can be easily moved.
Well i think i heard that there is a group of whales in bitcoin and also in altcoin they can manipulate the price of coins..
Just we like experience few months ago or last year i saw some whales in bitcoin attracting the price was increase before it december the price goes down and the price increase again before christmass..

It is unfortunate that even in cryptocurrency remains the same rule - one that more assets and control of the situation. We really can not affect the price of Bitcoin. Although you can try to increase the popularity of Bitcoin among the people to demand increased
