Hi here !

So, the captitalization of BTC reached 40B $ , this is nice but not huge at all compared to FIAT currencies.

My question is : with such a "low" amount of money, does the traders have real power over the Bitcoin price ? I always heared about the natural inflation, simply more demand etc... But don't you think that if a lot of early investors with huge amount of BTC could gather and have control over its price ? Or they are simply slave of the system like every one of us ?

I'm waiting for your toughts  Grin

Whether early adopters or not, who have big amount of bitcoin and money have more power over bitcoin price. But, I don't think someone could dominate the market as bitcoin has spread widely and have quite huge market cap, besides  no one will do something stupid if they hold big portion of bitcoin obviously, maybe keep it save and convert small portion from time to time.
