There have been very sad and disappointing couple days in the Cryptocurrency world. There has been a large price manipulation because of just a few people.
maybe sad for newcomers and those who failed to study the history of what they have been investing in, but not for the rest! for them these past days were the best days full of potential and full of profit.
you see, this is not the first time a manipulation happens in bitcoin nor in the whole world generally speaking. this actually was one of the small manipulations. price only went down 29% (that is if you consider the ATH and the bottom not the starting price and resistance)! we have had pretty rough ones when price fell 50% and more. I'd say more people are catching on to the manipulation.
Was it all predicted before?? the cancellation of the project SegWit2x, Selling the bitcoin, Collecting the bitcoin cash at a low price, Pushing the bitcoin cash at a low price, Pumping the bitcoin cash price afterwards.
these things are usually predictable. specially when they are big.
What happens now to the Cryptocurrency believers?
nothing, they will continue believing in "bitcoin" and continue using all these opportunities to get more bitcoins.
