Whales do not really care about what we think about them, they have absolutely no reason to "buy and sell to show they are the kings" or anything, they know we depend on them but even if we do not know that, they do not care about it neither, they know we depend on them and that is enough.
Whales do not care about anything except that they just want to make a profit.
And this does not require equation and analysis,
and our dependence on whales is undeniable.
The sea and tides are bigger then any whale, the only thing that counts in the end is consensus or a recognised trend. A whale or large seller or buyer can influence a market and if it was set to tip anyway then it can catch and form a bigger move but its not certain and if the whale is just incorrect in their selling then its effect is dissipated into the larger amount of buying of selling and it matters not even with their size. We have globally distributed markets, multiple nations, languages, cultures and time frames so its not clear who is in charge or how it might vary each day week or season. BTC is quite unique not as easily influenced in this way, we should acknowledge its still quite a small market and obviously dollar has a large influence and so government but I never judge anything quality by the lesser negatives that exist, it should not be diminished that easily.
We are most affected by prices when whales are related to each other.
And I think there is a connection.
Even if one whale is in Asia and the other is in Africa, it may still be.
People who are rich are definitely influential people who can easily find people like themselves.
