You know that an exchanges is a marketplace to bridge between buyer and seller
I don't think it exchange are manipulating price, because you can see the price on other exchanges.

I don't know, and it's impossible for any of us to say if the price is being manipulated or not. We do know that the U.S. Justice Department had open a criminal probe in order to investigate if the price is being manipulated or not. I have no idea how they will carry that investigation, but I guess we just need to keep an eye on how everything resolves.

I guess that there are some pump and dump schemes, but those should not be enough for BTC, because although bitcoin market is not huge, I would say it's big enough to be protected from that. Unless exchanges itself were doing it, since they do hold huge amounts of coins. Regulation is closing on them though, so if these things happen, and with the U.S. Justice Department getting involved as well, I would say that things should start getting better now.
It will be hard for them to manipulate price especially those coins that are listed in multiple exchanges, I don't think exchanges were capable of doing it since it will make their company less trusted. It will only be applicable if they are on top holders of that coin that can control it, but it will be always applicable for there are too many coins to prioritize with.

I don't believe crypto currency exchange manipulate coins market value in any way and for the fact that the of the one coin value on exchange A is different from what is obtainable in another or B exchange doesn't mean there is manipulation of currency.

There were some rumors about Bitfinex before that it add extra USDT before , I think that was the reason which exchanges are immigrating from usdt to usd and tusd , USDT got some issues and it acted shady in some cases ,I try not to use that currency.

I did’nt heared something like this before and i don’t think exchages manipulate prices of crypto. However social media sites and other sites in the web creating these “manipulation” thing as a FUD to create doubt on people who are new to crypto and newbie investors to get rid of crypto. But if that really exists it is a bad thing to know.

I really dont understand how exchange possible to manipulate the price of BTC, as we know BTC listed in all crypto exchange. Only possible to manipulate coin or token that listed in 1 exchange only. In my opinion BTC price can be manipulate only by whales.

They may manipulate it via bots, but that is probably made for little coins not for bitcoin, it is hard to manipulate big coins' prices. But such kind of manipulations have been always made.

Its possible to manipulate the price by the exchanges, we don't really know the real situation inside their company. The price is currently dumping so I think, someone is trying to dump the price again and buy more and manipulate the price way up and sold their holdings. This is the trend now I think, but in long run the price will still go higher than what we expect.

I feel that the price is very manipulated right now and since then i feel it's manipulated because good indicators with a strong pattern is mostly a 90% chance of it actually being accurate and if it's not accurate it seems it's manipulated.

They need a huge amount of money inorder to manipulate a single coin. They must have a huge amount of BTC in different exchange site.  And make simultenous dump or pump of a certain coin to create manipulation.

I read a couple news about price manipulations, it's a real thing and new to me, so sorry if it sounds newbie.

I am still trying to understand how this manipulation works. This could be the main reason for what is happening to prices now ?

Where is my ring of blades...
what you hear these days is only because price has been falling otherwise manipulation has existed from early days and in fact manipulate exists in any other market even the big and regulated markets. it is something inevitable. but these days only because people love drama during drops the media is filled with the talk about manipulations and how everyone is being ripped off. but when the manipulation is on the rising side nobody says a word about it.

I am not sure about this but I think this is possible because in the market, there are too many people and I am sure that some of them are the big whales which have much bitcoin and altcoin. they can easily to increase and decrease the price and they can move the price to wherever they want but I don't think that they can always do this because they need to face with thousands of traders which is a trade in the same exchange and the whales cannot handle so many things. but I think the price now is related to what is happening in the market so although it's because of the price manipulations, we could still make a profit from this.

That could be bad if they are doing it right now as it is affecting the market adversely. However I do know one thing that, exchanges wont do it as it would be their own loss in the market. I mean look at the market right now, it is dropping in trading volume rather than getting the hikes and thus it could worsen the situation over the exchanger itself and they will loose the customer focus too. So the next question is why would they will do it. Will they really go to that worst level to make themselves a loss.

As far as I know, some crypto-exchange exchanges manipulate the indicator of trading volume in their own interests. It's not about deviations from the behavior of players related to the difference in the market, but about the artificial overestimation of the indicator to 95% of the real values. Among such exchanges, there is the most popular Okex with a volume of 1.7 billion. Falsification is also taking place on another exchange Huobi, which is the second largest in the popularity rating.

I think manipulation is currently going on. I noticed a coin was of very low price in cmc but on exchanges it is not some price. It is higher in the exchange with about $2 more. I couldn't explain that and thus didn't buy that coin.

Few months back this has been taking place in different exchanges. Due to the fake volume the value kept pumping and the same led to a inspection from the people's bank of China. Once after that the price was found declining and the fake volume issue came to an end marking an end to the fake volume of exchanges.

Recently found that CMC were found manipulating the bitcoin prices by giving fake details about the coins prices but I never heard that exchanges manipulating the prices bit it may happen too so we need to check the prices in multiple exchange before trading any coins.

Yeah that could be the best way to go around this. I mean you can always find the ways to see if the details are fake or not. Checking on multiple exchangers as well as staying connected with the official website can be a way out to keep track of actual prices.

Also CMC is the website who actually takes out the average of multiple exchangers and depending upon the results it will give the price tag to it. So CMC can be wrong all the time if exchanger started manipulating the prices.

Yes, the main exchange that is always manipulating the prices is HitBTC, they have bots in there to manipulate the price of almost every pair in there (there are a lot of theories on the internet) and no, bots are not from users, they are from the website by itself
