Well i guess if they added a coin (any coin) whom ever can show up and buy lots of them.
I am not seeing any signs Poloniex itself was behind this Pascal stuff.
UNLESS they bought them themselves (they are the whale)
Or.. they are forging the order books etc.
More than likely it is a whale or group etc and we won't ever have proof of who is behind it.
Unless Poloniex wanted to help with an investigation.. doubtful.
They are not likely to want to expose themselves and their customers like that.
Ethereum was a similar situation guys ..as i told you 1,000 times.
As soon as they launched their IPO a mysterious figure was buying up shitloads of coins in 100 BTC chunks.
We know this because i started a scam topic on it in 2014 and on page 1 users reported this from the block explorer.
Back then it was suspicious how much advertising Coindesk was doing on it too and we all knew they had money.. they admitted to it with ASIC mining 6 figures of Doge coin then saying they dumped some etc.
That back in 2014 seemed to scare people away from ETH for a long loooong time.
Until it got hyped & pumped in 2016..
then the world got amnesia and forgot all about it's sketchy launch antics.Then surprise surprise "Butters" admits to dumping a quarter of his "holdings" for a million dollars.
So by his own words he had 4 million dollars worth...
somehow.
But apparently that sounds legit to you all
There is a reason i quit trading guys.. this shits a corrupt rigged scammy joke of a whale scene.
