Topic: Do whales manipulate the market? - page 9. (Read 1543 times)
Wallets with just a few BTC in them are probably owned by a single person who is also trying to accumulate from the market. If you are a whale too I guess it would make sense for you to try making more money out of your money.
I'm wondering if they would also be doing it to the futures market like manipulating the price to go down because they bet the price to dip.
I see many people wondering. Do whales manipulate the market?
I found website, it contains all the information about whale wallets we need to know:

The market cannot be manipulated , this only comes to reality once the people react from the manipulating strategy of the whales.I found website, it contains all the information about whale wallets we need to know:

Example they sold all their coin that will start the value to drop badly , if we panicked and sell our coins also then that will be the domino effect and the whales successfully manipulated the market.
But if we will not react and just let them sell their coin then we are safe from their target and surely they will buy back again for the reason of failure .
Investors called whales are not only present in the cryptocurrency market. It is available on all known exchange platforms. As for your question, yes, investors who hold a large amount of investment can manipulate the market as they wish. In fact, not only whales, but even well-known and phenomenal people can manipulate it. The best example of this is Elon Musk, who manipulated the market as he wanted, using both the power of his money and his fame. In short, those who have money can do whatever they want.
In fact, yes they do. And there are many whales in the crypto market and each of them may have different preferences to manipulate the market. ANd see who wins the manipulation. Combined with supported FUD spreading, the manipulation may be also easier. Moreover, in some cases, the whales may have related to the market exchanges so that they can really give influence to the market price and cap.
We all know that this market has always been, the price and control of it from the whales is undeniable. Maybe with the current cap we can be happy that it is a lot different from before, but to be honest it is still very small compared to other markets.
Huge investors or early adaptors of crypto especially Bitcoin drives the whole market. People gets alarmed when hugr funds are transferred from or to a cold wallet to an exchange.People watch for news and update to see how the market will go. Some of this news are fabricated to shake thw market. Whales always win over small investors by letting them sell for losses when they panic during the crash. They create news and cause panic for their own convenience.
Yes, whales are manipulating the market, you could see it when Elon was tweeting. He bought, tweeted about it, price rose, he sold, tweeted about it, price fell, he probably bought more or just did it for fun because he had already made money on that move so there was no risk.
OP's address list doesn't say anything about manipulation. Big addresses are usually owned by exchanges.

Yes they do, one person can have unlimited amount of bitcoin so a whale has no reasons to hold all of his bitcoins into a single wallet.
Bitcoin used to be manipulated heavily much much less now. The volume is just too much for one person or even one group at this point to move the needle. Can they, yes. Do they probably not now. Now for alts oh completely. Pretty much everything is still manipulated for low caps. They are trading toys for people.
Yeah, they can somewhat manipulate the market and have some influence. They can do it directly and indirectly. You will sometimes see the market crashes a little as soon as a whale moves his coins. When he moves it to an exchange, the market dips more. They can also manipulate by dumping their coins, causing the price to fall and then buy again, causing the price to rise. Whatever they do, the affect of the manipulation is short lived. As more people starts to invest in bitcoin, we won't be seeing such manipulation in the future.
Those who have a lot of money can certainly do anything as well as in crypto, whales freely manipulate the market and I see some whales are also very fond of fudding

Whales of course do manipulate the market when the opportunity calls, I mean who wouldn't?, if you are a whale of a coin and you find an opportunity where manipulating the market is required for you to gain some really good profit, I bet you would, but then market manipulation is very easy with crypto cus the industry is still very young, a time is coming when the crypto market will be so so big that it would be near impossible for it to be manipulated.
I found website, it contains all the information about whale wallets we need to know:
Its just a wallet rich distribution, its just a information not all the information we need to know. Also a whales can have more than a wallet, so its possible someone have a huge amount of BTC and divide it to some wallets. Also, not only whales who did manipulation, huge investor who want to entry the market usually do manipulation too for having a lower entry.
Of course, this is literally that's why they exist. There is still no regulation in the markets, so a whale can manipulate small-scale stock markets as it wishes and earn income. Let them be whales, they are not so harmful once you watch their waves.

If there's manipulation happening here, that beyond our control because there's no regulations on cryptocurrency that could prevent it. Whales could use their money to create hype and buy bitcoins at bigger amounts. They could make the price rapidly increase, but we need to be careful on that stage of ongoing rise because that will suddenly drop when they'll going to take their profit.
Since crypto market grew big market players manipulate the whole market to take profit from weak hands. Everyone is aware of it and some are just riding with the whales. Even stock market are manipulated by rich people. They sell the news and spread FUD to manipulate the market. Even tweets by Elon is now driving the market.
There are a lot of whales surrounding the market and those that are big players that will make fud and when the market dumps, they are the ones who will take advantage first and buy those cheap coins as much as they want. They are mostly the rich people that will always wanted to control the market so they can always buy crypto coins as many as they want and continue manipulating the market.Market manipulation isn't new to us and so investors are already used to it. If they can invest in those high potential coins like bitcoin and ethereum, market manipulation can't stop them from reaching new heights everytime these coins start to surge.
The cryptocurrency market is completely unregulated and there is no regulatory authority. So, there are more frequent signs of market manipulation. That is why, it is very important for beginners to distinguish natural market movements from direct interventions, so as not to get in touch with market manipulators.
Yes, that's right, the cryptocurrency market is an international market in digital currencies, so all of that is not without manipulation in the market, but a better market development in the cryptocurrency market. However, the cryptocurrency market, there are many ruthless competitors in a project, as well as beginners who are busy wanting to join an existing market or project, and don't be fooled by an existing project, pay attention first before taking a good step.

It's no longer a secret that the whales are manipulating and that list that you've shown, most of the wallets that has a lot of bitcoins. They are coming from the exchanges and those are likely from the cold storage. The common strategy that the whales do are making some sort of news that will spread FUD to the people and then they're the ones that will buy those discounted bitcoins that have been sold due to the fear and panic that they've done.
thanks for the news, but it boosted the market price with at least the coin being spread to the public
