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

I think its true behind the speculation of price manipulation of some rich investors who wants to buy cryptocurrency in a very cheap price so that they can benefits again once the market price increases.

The market of crypto-currency has a very small capitalization because of this it is very easy to manipulate. In favor of this theory indicates that recently there were a lot of good news but the rate on the contrary fell

I don't know if manipulation is a crime but some of this manipulation has been confirmed like they found out that Mt.Gox selling lot of Bitcoins last January and it was revealed thru series of investigations that they are the reason on why from Bitcoin ATH $19,800 it falls down as low as $9,000. For me this kind of act is a manipulation of price that they have just caught and try to reason out that their exchanges was hacked and the hackers sold the huge Bitcoins amount but for me they are one of the big whales who manipulated Bitcoin price to pump up then after the ATH they will just sell it easily.

US government are into this case,they are doing investigations regarding this matter that has been an big issue for how long now.because many believe that prices are manipulated seems like they are doing this kind to favor them and taker advantage from someone whos believing in price movement and in the end will lead for them to be trapped in low value whe they bought the coins from higherprices

I do not know if price manipulation ever happened before, but I think if there is any price manipulation on cryptocurrency market. some investors with very large amounts of money, maybe can control the market price of crypto, can manipulate easily to make prices rise or fall very quickly and very volatile. because then the big investors can make huge profits. I do not know exactly what happened, it's only my opinion that if the price manipulation of the ceypto market exists.

That is the sad reality of crypto dude, there is some big investors in crypto or what we called whales they can truly manipulate the market, if they wants to pump it they can pump it and if they wants to dump it they can dump it also, there is nothing we can do about it unless the governments would intervene which is I think is also a bad ide.

There is nothing we can do but to learn how to play with them. Whales are very powerful in terms of controlling the trend of the market so it is best to learn how they play and observe their moves and how they are going to execute their plays so if we will know that then we can go with the flow with them and get a higher chance for making a profit.

I think it is possible, given that there are some rich businessmen called whales who are somewhat trying to manipulate the price of Bitcoin in creating pumps and and dumps, which is allowing them to lead the price to where they want it to be, unfortunately this is for their own selfish gains only. It is actually creating more FUDs hence, contributing to the failure of Bitcoin's value and price due to the decreasing interest of the public to it.

I am believe this never happen in cryptocurrency market. I think cryptocurrency market is most transparant market compare with others market like stocks market or others. In stock market, price can be manipulated with insider trading information or others but can not happen in cryptomarket

It seems that it's caused by large-scale buyers and buying at prices that do not match the prices that exist on the market, maybe that's affecting the price to look like manipulated. That's in my opinion.

Those big buyers or players in the market that are buying with a huge volume of capital are called whales. The whales in the market are the one who are manipulating the market and putting abnormality growth or movement in the market which is an activity that they do for their own selves because they want to create a faster profit.

price manipulation is common, and this is often done by those who have a lot of money and have data from bitcoin buyers by desperately placing lots of holder to sell their tokens and then buy as much bitcoin to reap huge profits when prices rise drastically
and this is a fact for old players in bitcoin

Because of the ugly situation in the market of crypto currency some says that it is manipulated. In fact it is the competition of prices of token sale in the marketplace.

Whales could manipulate it since they have a large amount of bitcoin and once it trades on a certain exchange with an enough volume, if the holder has the largest contribution to the exchange's volume, it could control the bitcoins price and it also applies for altcoins.

What you say is true. Just a little action like transferring a large number of BTCs from a cold wallet to a trading floor will also have a positive impact on the market price.

yes, i believe that theres a big possibility of a price manipulation made by some rich people trying to destruct the image of bitcoin in the market so that once the pruce decreasing they can buy more coins to hold and to wait for the market recovery

If I think price manipulation is normal that occurs in the market because our Crypto currency can not deny that there are people who are richer than us, but If they will sell or buy together then the price may suddenly go down or up, I think even if they will know that this is really happening they can not afford the cost to the merchants, who who have an advantage in the market because of their money and the thing we can do now is survive if we get stuck in coin for now.

We cannot say that there is a price manipulation. We know how the volatile the bitcoin value. We cannot assure or if there are way to manipulate the the price or the value of bitcoin. We must have a proof whether they are manipulating or not. Lets not be to dependent on news or even on social media.

We can not provide certain evidence because there is no evidence to be found that a person is manipulating. but we know that
prices can be manipulated by setting buy and ask. and some users who have large capital can do that. but there is no evidence for that

of course its possible. finance is influenced by human psychology. The easiest way to influence people is to manipulate them. speculation is the biggest weapon to attract investors.
At the moment, some are buying from the cheapest level. they will make good speculation and raise prices later on. and they will sell what they buy cheaply on their hands at a high price.
