If the market is just easily manipulated and there are controlled pumps and dumps, is there really a point of calling this an investment based on fundamentals anymore? Seems like now it is more of a guessing game, even holding there is no telling whether the fact that how great this technology is for our future is going to even matter when you can just throw paper money at it to make it go up or down when you please. Maybe a bit dramatic but I don't see how we can say fundamentals play any role in crypto at this point, other than the fact that the mania surrounding it will continue to have people looking to invest in something volatile means it will keep growing the more that fiat is printed. Please feel free to argue against this sentiment, just trying to figure out whether this is based on technological fundamentals anymore or if it ever will be (yes I know POS, POS, POS, RAIDEN, METROPOLIS but we all know we just follow BTC no matter ETHs developments).

You could say the same thing about stock markets. But no there is a lot more to investing in crypto than a "guessing game"
