This is the time to buy if you want to become rich, The top coins are at bargain prices, 200 dollars for an eth, (that is an easy 5x if you hold).
I believe the whales and wall street manipulators have been keeping prices down and shaking out the noobs so they can accumulate for very cheap prices.
I agree that current prices it is result of manipulations, but l'm not sure that manipulation process is finished. Now it the high risk that price will continue drop down. Yes you will get great profit if you will buy on the bottom level, but how to determine where is bottom?
