How easy would it be for someone to purposely bloat those numbers ?

Very difficult, buy up the coin on all exchanges to bloat the price and then get stuck with them when the price comes back down, for what purpose?

How many insider trader trading bots would it take ?

How exactly does a bot have "insider" knowledge and if the operator had the insider knowledge why would they need a bot?

Does anyone have proof that the miners are seeing these pipe dream profits ?

It's not a profit, it's income compared to mining BTC with the same hardware. Profit needs to take costs into account. It's just mathematics, do some sums with difficulty and price and that gives the income ratio. Do you really need proof of that simple concept?

Pretty neat how my ignores just jumped.

Truth hurts ?! EAT IT AND DIEEE YA COIN HOPPER PARASITES. Grin

Pretty interesting that you are pleased to be ignored rather than realise that it is because you talk nonsense. The miners are the workers choosing the best rate of pay by switching coins. The parasites are the creators of copy coins and the hoarders "early adopters" speculating on a massive return. It really is laughable to here them cry when someone else mines "their" coin and the difficulty goes up.
