I've always made decisions based off greater sentiment, bitcoin is getting more and more popular. "The difference" this time over previous times is that instead of just asking about it and going "oh yeah that sounds cool", they're actually buying a small amount and trying it out. All their mates see them make a gain and want in, that drives the price, I know four people who last year were telling me bitcoin is stupid but are now holding BTC LTC and ETH. Obviously this drives the price up.

Is there a greater chance that this is what's happening (0bviously combined with some institutional buying) or, is it more likely that there is a global conspiracy of bankers who want to destroy bitcoin?

And if there is a global conspiracy, what is the solution? Sell all our bitcoin? To my mind the answer, as always, just fucking HODL. see where bitcoin is three years from now.

With AML BitCoin there is not. The market determines the price. This should make everyone comfortable.

Digital currencies price is not a fixed amount that it's original price is 20k dollars we all know that crypto currencies are very volatile that's why it quickly go down after it surge. But this price crashes has been very suspicious lately, i also read an article about price manipulation it's said that they're making fake volume trading to start an FUD and the recent hack in a korean exchange reportedly that there was 30 mil stolen but the total market loss of crypto was around i think 700 mil, cant really remember the exact numbers.

We have seen reports lately that the US Justice Department has opened a criminal probe into alleged price manipulation of

Bitcoin and other digital currencies. We have seen for months now that the Bitcoin price cannot get momentum and as soon

as there are positive signs that it is recovering, then it drops down again. In many of these instances there are no negative

news that would have triggered that downward spiral. There are also no Alt coins with significant growth during these times,

 for us to say that these Alt coins are the trigger behind this. The only logical conclusion for this is that someone or a group of

people are "killing" the correction phase of the Bitcoin price.  Angry

Do you think there are some sinister agenda behind this or is this just Bitcoin whales doing their normal thing?   

As what i have read about government plans, there are countries who will be creating some laws toward cryptocurrency investors but still the prices will not be manipulated by the government.

bitcoin, with extreme volatility, as everyone knows. we see that the large price fluctuations of the crypto money market with the largest capitalized crypto are now almost regular. this leads to quite a negative market pressure. the first question that needs to be asked as to why this price fluctuation is being investigated is, in fact, whether bitcoin is manipulated in price. we can not know without seeing such an action. So it is not easy to say for sure that bitcoin manipulation is done.

When something linger too long in thought, it then becomes the truth that an individual believes in. The issue of price manipulation didn't start today. What we are seeing now is giving credence to the various conspiracies of "whales" that have been spread in the market several times. For me, I try to stay objective to issues and so far there is no irrefutable evidence to show that this manipulation is happening, I rather not force myself to believe in conjectures. Thankfully, investigations have been launched and we just have to wait for the report, review it then pick a side based on that.

In my own opinion, the only reason for the price of cryptocurrency to be manipulated is through hackers just like the news last few months ago when some koreans try to manipulate the market price by hacking.

It looks like the majority consensus around here is that there is some kind of manipulation in the market. It may or may not

be institutional manipulation, but the signs are definitely there. I hope someone can identify the source of this manipulation

and the goal behind this. {Malicious or Profit} Let's see if the SEC's investigation will bear some fruit, so that we can go

forward with this experiment.

Cryptocurrencies with a large market capitalization of around $300,000,000,000  is not free from institutional manipulations.  However,  as humans been we need to understand that we are living in a corrupted world and there is no way we would not have people and institutions that will not manipulating the market.

I think that no state institution can manipulate the market with crypto currency. The price is regulated by the market. Manipulations certainly exist. And they can make speculators. They can artificially create an agiotage and panic or spread untrue information that discredits the crypto currency.

There may be manipulation of bitcoin holders and markets.

 But it must be followed up not speaking because there is no fire if there is no smoke nothing is impossible only bitcoin holders and the market knows it.
They are planning something we do not know just wait

Nope because these institutions just like US had only concerns on their constituents engaging in this kind of investment. As we all know that this kind of trend might be used to any illegal transactions that involve illegal activities. So whatever governments decision and motion to regulate cryptocurrency then that is for the betterment of the investment.

I do not a new cryptocurrency that you can use to theirs, the right direction. I believe the market will be great currency someday, and technology. I believe in mythical man who has the market it to be wise to become one who has a new cryptocurrency. I even its own right now is to study the future

IT could also mean that there is an institutional manipulation of bitcoin market price. As we all know that in an investment like this it could be easily to take an advantage among others with. Like for example that is being stated above that US government has done some regulations on bitcoin then probably in my opinion that US could be one of an institutional organization secretly manipulating bitcoin market price and they are just making cover ups that they do not want just like we use to say big whales doing their normal activity and that is manipulating bitcoin market price.

I think those investors that has many bitcoin can manipulate the price but it's not enough to lower the price at this level. This situation is a results of the massive selling of bitcoin due to some negative news about the crypto. I hope that some good news will follow to shift back the situation and get enough momentum to make a good rally.

I think not from any institution that can affect bitcoin prices because bitcoin is a decentralized currency so no one can control. and I think this is purely from market demand and some things that affect the rise and fall of bitcoin prices one of them is a factor of news that is addressed in bitcoin.

Well bitcoin market is relatively small yet, so it's possible that some big whales, that bought during the price jump that happened when futures were launch, are now manipulating the market and taking profit from the futures market and these bitcoin sell offs. Nothing we can do about it, and our best approach, if we are not trading, is to just hold the coins. The problem is that most people just care about profit, so they see the price going down and just massive sell all their coins out of panic, or to simply buy them at a better price in the future.
These things will change in the future though, as BTC gets more adoption, and the market gets more liquidity.

I don't know what to think recently, and so I choose just to be patient and flexible in order to make a good reaction, and proper decisions while the things would collide.
