Yes, manipulating bitcoin is very possible - though and unless if you have a sufficiently big amount of bitcoin in store. It is advantageous for the individual or group, who does not want a favorable price when you need them. If you have the power and that power gets you profit, why not right?

I read that they are investigating criminal price manipulations over Bitcoin. Manipulation of prices is really possible ? This happened before ?

There is no criminal price manipulation, the only way for the price of bitcoins to be manipulated is through creating fud or people are going to create fake news in order to reduce the number of investors in the market.

price manipulation can occur if a person has many bitcoins. they call them whales. In fact I've heard rumors that there are groups that hold very large amounts of bitcoin, they can control the market price on bitcoin.

Obviously, the market is being manipulated. The main exchanges can largely influence Bitcoin futures spot price cause they are actually the reference for futures contracts. The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) just accused Coinbase, Kraken and Bitstamp of big market manipulation. That's one of the reason of today's flash crash.

I think that it is only possible when someone has a big amount of bitcoin and they are selling in moment that they think it is able to just make price go down, but only in this case it is possible to manipulate price for me.

At the end of October bitcoin gold was put on the market. Initially, around the currency flared unthinkable excitement. However, gradually it fades and you need to think carefully before deciding whether to buy bitcoin gold. Experts are sure that, as well as in bitcoin cache, this currency has a fairly high potential

Could you provide a link or information where they really investigate such criminals for manipulating the price of bitcoin? I don't think you or they can just call them as criminals when manipulating prices? Price manipulation is always there when you are on the top of all, that's why most of the users are trading with cautions and not just those weak-handed traders.

Bitcoin prices can be manipulated in the sense that they are not in the fox ranges from 150 million to 170 million, but the manipulation here sets the price. We all know the price of bitcoin depends on supply and demand, the more people who want to buy the higher the price, and vice versa. Now that a strong question whether a billionaire world do it? no, so bad news is needed to create panic and good news to attract buyers.

An example of manipulation in the bitcoin market could be seen the day before yesterday. It was bought out by one order on the market for about a thousand bitcoins and the price went up by 7700, then this one was also merged into the market, but the price remained at the level of 7650-7700.

Indeed, Manipulation is very likely in the world of crypto currencies that have the potential for manipulation. Price manipulation is often done by someone or a group of people in order for them to benefit greatly by playing an intelligent strategy to make the supply and demand in the market happen naturally. Actually, they play supply and demand in the market. They do this strategy with a planned. This happens like a chain. They will drop the price again when they have achieved what they want.

I think it must be better called as cartel formation in bitcoins which works to move prices of bitcoins for profit.

Yes, I think it may occur. Base on the price trend starting January it has an identical trend which is so controversial. If you observe this someone is dropping the price down so that panic time will happen.

Yes, it can happen. Some big guys come by buying large amounts of bitcoin, HODL, selling at high prices, then leaving. When whales come the price will jump, and this is what attracts beginner investors to bitcoin.

As far as I know those big players can manipulate the price of bitcoin after bitcoin soars those big players will dump their bitcoins and they will make negative news about bitcoin so it gives FUD to the other users and after the panic selling they used the chance to buy again and this became a cycle.

We may hate to admit it but yes, it is true that price manipulation really occurs in bitcoin and any other cryptocurrencies. Whales that have huge amount of capital can really run the show if they want at any time. They have connection and influence to the media that anytime they want bitcoin's price to drop they just release negative news to create FUD.

The owners of large accounts of bitcoins have the ability to manipulate the market. They manipulate the market, and we can watch the movement of funds on large accounts and the change in the price of bitcoin.

for price manipulation it seems like it could happen, but it has a very high risk, better never to manipulate the price. just buy the price as it is, the price manipulation will be terrible.
