market manipulation will increase in my opinion now that futures exist.

you now have a group of wall st investors that have an interest in manipulating the market to fit their futures, they have access to large amounts of money and can buy actual bitcoin to hedge their shorts or buy big sell small if they want the market to go the other way.

there are already reports of this happening during this correction.

bitcoin is now their plaything. the fundamentals will not even come into it. just another way to profit from the ignorance of retail investors and those that hodl due to their belief in the technology.
