I think otherwise. There is some manipulation in here in my opinion. We all know that in a few weeks the possibility of bitcoin price to increase is greater than it going down. So to maximize the profit in this coming event, whales try to accumulate as much as they can before the price of bitcoin goes up.
That's also the impression that I have been getting at the time the price came close to the $750 levels. It may be a manipulation attempt to make people think like it is indeed the top, but we may very well end up sitting at the edge of seeing massive dumps taking the price down to sub $700 prices. I personally think the latter scenario is what we will be experiencing in the coming weeks. I am happy to have secured a good amount of profits around the $740 levels. I am prepared for a massive dump.
Or probably the opposite might happen.
buy how can they buy large amounts of Bitcoins and still make the prices fall?
seems contradictory
isn't newbise that buys and whales dump on them? whales buys just to make more naive users buys into their pump, then they dumb to get back and make profit, i think this is the reason you see those swings on the market
