The chinese are using the PBOC as an excuse to crush the price and short and use all the panic sellers on their advantage.
How do we stop them and fuck them up? easy, don't panic sell when they release more PBOC messages. If they see that they can't manipulate the price with those PBOC messages,, they will try to stop shorting and they will start longing pushing the price up.
I'm not easy to be panic and take the bait even if the price down to $500.
It's easier to buy then and hold for a better future, but they who have huge amount of bitcoin apparently could manipulate the market by sell big amount to get profits, imagine if you have
BTC5000 and sold it at $1200, when the price fall to $700, buy back again.
What a nice strategy, right. If there's no one following to sell, they would loss. But how much of us willing to support bitcoin price to stay at the top.
