Topic: Will BTC and the Alts be easier to manipulate now - page 5. (Read 1124 times)
You're right Bitcoin is very vulnerable at its present price, people with lots of money can buy it now to control its price later
it seems to me that below 100 billion dollars we will not see the capitalization of the cryptocurrency market
Its easier to manipulate the market now, the diversify of investment now is too big, it makes most of the coins become weaker, the lower the transaction volume the easier for the whale to control and manipulate, the investors now still hesitate to invest so the market cap keep on dropping and its easier for the whale to execute any action
I don't feel like it's dead, but I feel like it is a lot more vulnerable than it was prior to a month ago, and I am not certain about a recovery any time soon.
It is not always possible to move upwards. No matter how high it is, people want it to be even higher. At 6.5k we wanted it to be higher and even if it had been 65k we would like it to be higher. Yep for the first time we see such a low price in 2018 but for the first time we have met with the price of 20k the past year.
Manipulation is one thing that is predominant in this market. Big whales push the market in their favour and they achieve this by making weak hands think that everything is about to crash, you panic and dump to them. Am sure with this dip, they have loaded up their bags again and ready to go again.
It is very easy to answer. After the big market crush everyone is ready to listen believe anything. So it is the right time for the speculators. Unfortunately they are very good at it and the people would get loose easily with the wrong speculations.. Also if you have the right channels and followers you can make manipulations too. Also the big investors would do it very easy too, ofcourse.
That so much capital left the market? Market cap was $220 billion 3 weeks ago. Today, we are barely holding on to $125 billion market cap. How much lower can btc go in price? 3k, 2k, 1k?

Now the whales are buying cryptocurrency to sell at a profit of 200%.
I do not expect a sharp increase in Bitcoin, but in the next 2-3 months Bitcoin can reach a price of 8, 000 dollars

I don't think it's going to be any easier, because most of them left the market, they weren't very interested in it in the first place, also remember that for those prices to go down the whales had to sell large amounts of btc, so if ordinary people bought we would regain some power.
Current market conditions are really bad, there are a lot of investors who secure their assets with USDT, they are afraid if they keep holding coins. And I think the current conditions are almost the same in the past 2014, the market will not recover soon, it may take more than a year to make it normal again
If you are a billionaire and you want to control and manipulate the market in the future, now it is a good time to buy, I guess that is what happened in the last weeks and one of the biggest manipulators is the Satoshi himself
The future looks uncertain and recommending a billionaire to become a bagholder in case the current market trend continues and the doesn't come up again. Until the market pick up, there isn't any need to keep adding to what you already have.
I think we got vey low market cap lately and i wouldn't think that it goes more down.. I just checked it has reached 140 billion and still climbing high. I believe that after this black friday madness the bitcoin and altcoins price started to recover and our sunny day is coming soon.. (Hopefully!!)
I don't agree. There are 'shity altcoins' as you say, but there can't all be bad. I believe that there is a hidden gem out there that has a potential and that deserves a shot. Think about it. The leverage of BTC is that it was first and it was implemented already. The rest that arrived later had less chance to succeed and of course it is easier to manipulate with small, unimportant and anonymous altcoins.

It doesn't change much. Altcoins were being manipulated anyway by rich miners who had a lot of money and could boost an altcoin early on when not many people were interested in it, mine a lot, and dump it all when the right time comes. 2 years ago the market was much smaller than now and it was much easier to manipulate.

I think even you are a billionaire still it is hard to manipulate market. We all know that Satoshi Nakamoto have a lot of bitcoin on his wallet so we can really say he can really manipulate the market. However, Satoshi Nakamoti is still unknown so no one know who can manipulate the market. 
Of course it's easy to manipulate the market... If you have millions or billions of Bitcoin or altcoins, but still it depends of the demand even if you sell a million or billion of Bitcoins in the market and no one wants to buy it to you it will not going to change.
But volume really has a big part of the price change isn't?

Bitcoin and everything in cryptocurrency is vulnerable.
The market and the people dictates the price of the token.
We were at 800 BILLION market cap before, we were less than a billion too.
We should understand the market and gain from it.

Of course, with the lower market cap price manipulation is much easier. It is even much easier when users are in panic because they do not think reasonably and make decisions under the influence of fear. However, i think that this is the end of the bear market and positive moods are slowly coming back to the market.
The more cheap the price, the more easier to do manipulation. The fact is altcoin easier to manipulated then bitcoin. With the current drop price, a few altcoin might already manipulated by group of people, but for btc it will require more power to manipulates. The obvious thing is not easy to do that.I don't think it matter for whales though. They can manipulate expensive btc and make it crash and they can pump cheap btc it whenever they like. It's the people's reaction to those manipulations that makes the difference. Of course panic would have greater effect.
