Topic: Why We People Cannot Think Like Whales 🐋 🐳? (Read 487 times)

It's not whales that are manipulating the market. It's the banks and the people who attend World Economic Forum.

I have a conspiracy theory for you OP:
SBF is Jewish, so are his parents who were helping him with a the scam and happily taking millions of dollars in real estate from him. Gary Gensler, who was supposed to oversee FTX and make sure the CEO has the money, is Jewish. Recently we saw news that Goldman Sachs wants to buy some crypto companies. They smell blood in the water and guess what, the bank was established by a Jew.

Before someone labels it as antisemitism, I'm not being anti anything, this is nothing but a bunch of facts.

IMO this was a well-timed attack on cryptocurrencies.

If you know the game is rigged against you and you still decide to play then that is your fault, it is true that exchanges and whales in general have a huge advantage over the average trader, but if that is the case then you need to stop playing their game, and how can you do that? Just buy bitcoin and hold no matter what in a wallet you control, this way it does not matter what the whales may do, they will have no chance of ever taking advantage from you.

I could have been very rich by now if that it true.  We should think and strive hard like rich people if we wanted to get rich.  Getting rich is easier said than done.



Whales are scheming and they have the luxury of waiting, they dictate the trend of the market so they never get worry because they know when to buy and know when to sell, because after all they are the one dictating the trend of the market.

Whales will be accumulating when the small traders were in the panic as there is market crash. The small traders have limited fund and they try the best to safeguard the fund, whereas whales in the market have got good sum of money that makes them go for investment when the market is in panic.

Their buying strategy is too different, they are in the opposite position.
Whales are buying when panic and fear increase while small investors buy during recovery. In that case, whales truly matured when it comes to investment and they can carry high-risk responsibilities pretty much unlike how these small investors do and think. It is all about mindset and market views, whales can perform better because of their long-term targets and they act consistently which we can never see in small investors as more of them are short-term investors and low risk-takers.

That is if they sell. These guys are hard to budge if not even to persuade them to buy a portion of their holdings. Although the idea that bitcoin could become a little less whale-controlled is idealistic, I would very much want it to happen in the soonest. Still, with the amount of bitcoins these fellows hold there's no doubt their standing is relatively high compared to ours, the only thing we got going for us is we outnumber them in quantity.


I would agree with the notion of today's price being irrelevant too, but to some degree at least, I guess you're trying to be metaphorical but price trends for bitcoin, no matter how volatile it is could still be used to compare and predict its future price.

Whale in crypto field refer to big institute or a high amount of crypto investor, and they have power that they controls the market because of amount is bitcoins at least 100 btc or more and when they sell there is not a chance that anyone stops the market ,
Now why dont we think like them , friends its not depends on our thought its their strategies , As we buy on any support so we thinks the price goes higher but if they sell at that time you dont have chance to avoid getting lose ,So they dont plans weeks ago they are market makers they traps us emotionally .

Well, retail investors do not think like whales because the whales have long term vision and most small traders are happy to get little profit. That's the reason in case of a bullish rally the retails usually sell early while whales have their big targets.

In bear times, retail are fearful and do not buy at cheap rates while the whales accumulate in these fearful times. There is a difference in the approach between retail and whales and that is the main reason why whales always win over small investors.

There are many popes and their characters, which means that some popes have their own strategies, but the popes are more careful and more specific in making each transaction, because they will be very concerned about the big transactions that occur.
Whales get early information because they have wide channels so they can do some manipulations to influence small investors with various kinds of news that are published.
This is also related to the Market Fundamental Pad, Whales have an important role in the Market Fundamentals because they manage everything well and lead to a strategy that they are blind to.

It may be true that they (whale exchangers) can increase or decrease the price irrationally in certain coins because they can read the market cap in detail so they play for additional profits, but I see that not all whales come from exchangers.

Whales outside exchangers (institutions/individuals) in my opinion are more careful because the amount of money they spend is of course quite large, this will be of deep concern to them, they will often study and research further regarding investment decisions and of course besides that they better to protect anything that threatens their money in the market, of course, this could get serious if they didn't do their research well. In contrast to what we (retail investors) do only rely on trends and technical analysis speculation to make investment decisions without going deeper.
And I've watched some whales go crazy they pump altcoins and shitcoins at such a scale that people would think it's very bullish and interested in buying and then after they (the whales) make a profit they withdraw funds, and the late people withdraw profits and the last to enter the bullish scheme will get a loss.

My additional thoughts on why it's so hard for us to outsmart the Pope:
1. There are many whales and their characters
2. The whales are always well-informed and early
3. we are too greedy

Because we are in different positions, their every word or action may affect an industry or a stock. So even if we think the same way, we can't do anything.

Of course, they don't panic about the FUDs because they are the people who created the FUDs. 
Whales know very well how to use media, they know people easily get afraid of negative issues announced by the media. Since they have big money, it is easy to pay the media for spreading some bad news/issues.

How do you know they are not afraid to lose money? 
They are humans, they must have the feeling to be afraid of losing their funds.
However, since they have the power to influence crypto market, they are confident about what they do. Moreover, they must work together, whales seem to have a big group to dominate crypto market.

Whales are smarter when it talks about opportunities. They are very certain about their plan and movement unlike how these usual investors do.
Whales are not easily got panic, they don't care much about FUDs and so whatever because they believe that all of these are just temporary and if you are aiming long-term, it doesn't matter.

Besides, whales are not afraid to lose their money, they are risk-takers. And they can stand their plan despite the market condition, unlike usual investors that easily change their minds because they carry worries and uncertainties.

^Whales usually don't invest and set aside, they always want to make the market price shake according to their plan.
I don't see whales did not manipulate the market or just investing and waiting for the right time. You are not whales on that, you are a real investor of the BTC. When whales wanted to invest at a lower price, they will make FUD which makes new investors panic and sell their BTC so that they can enter the market with a cheap price and sell it bull trend is coming. So we cannot think the same way of whales but if you are aware of those whales' strategies will probably you will not be affected by their FUD.

I think the whale talk is not permanent to just certain people looking at money or finance. Whales is happening in a circle and some whale lose the position when they dump during bull and sometimes they are hoping buying back when it is bear but maybe they don't get that chance to manipulate for the main time. I don't think they hodl coin when price is high enough to dump. Anybody can be a whale when they have capital and decide to invest in.

This is clearly the right answer on why some people cannot think like the whales.

Most people who just entered the market are thinking that adopting/investing in Bitcoin is just like a ride in the bus or a kind of get-rich-quick overnight without looking or even knowing what are the risk. And I bet, whales know how to minimize their losses and how to maximize their profit that's why it is impossible to some people to think like the whales.
Clearly, they don't have the knowledge of the whales that's why they failed.

As a matter of fact, thinking like a whale is the same as thinking like a rich person, and that's just what every person needs if they want to become rich. While that's a rate thing, otherwise, the vast majority of people would be bitcoin whales. As a matter of fact, whales are patient and this patience pays off just in time. They will not sell themselves and their assets for cheap prices and they always aim to reach a higher target and that's why you see that they usually earn a lot while other people are losing money.

Yes it is very obvious that the whales have more control of the market than a mere trader or investors like us. We don't have to power or what it takes to shake the power because our funds or holding means nothing and can not move bird to fly. We just have to control doing our best, checking news and get fast information because this is where many investors get it wrong. The faster we become more informed, the less the chances of us becoming scammed and falling to the cheap rug pull or crash of some projects or the crypto market entirely. Since information is power then we need to embrace it.

Thorough findings properly before concluding some crucial information about some projects. Perhaps we have witnessed some big scams in the market this year and the past ones, but traders and investors needs to be extremely careful not to fall in the hands of scams. There are countless ways to scammed people in the space and there are also many ways to prevent it. Terra Luna liquidation and got delisted from top exchanges was costs most people gigantic losses because some had large pieces of the coin. Let's be careful to not fall in the hand of scam but we should be well highlighten how the space operates.

I think you have got some misinformation because Solana and Serum have not scammed yet.
They have suffered the price declines because of the collapse of FTX. Since FTX was involved in Solana and Serum they faced a blood bath.
So we can't really say that Solana and Serum has scammed users.
