Just out of curiosity, does every market that goes through a long-ish bull or bear market have a unique individual that is personally responsible for that market condition? For example, is there a "gold whale"?
There could even be a whale who's personally responsible for several different markets at once, no? Jesus, maybe?
Probably so
I'd imagine so there is probably only 1-2 real bear whales and same for bull whales.
They are the ones who have the power to move and manipulate the market. Rest are just the normal Bears and bulls, but I think about 15% of the traders in here are just pigs that get slaughtered
Its very difficult to move the BTC market in relevant magnitudes. I would say only a handful of 5% mega whales on coordination can generate as much pressure.
Altcoins, for sure they are insanely manipulated.
