I wonder. 
It looks like the people posting here don't have that much btc/cash/funds and are almost all small fish. One of the reasons is of course the bounty hunters. People with >100btc don't need bounties. People with >1000btc don't need this forum lol... So I wonder, all the fud, shilling etc here. Does it really have an impact on prices? I tend to believe we are all manipulated big time by real whales with 100's and 1000's of btc. If a group of eth hodlers of several 100k eth decide together: let's go down today, then we will go down. When prices are down enough they decide to go up. Thoughts? This pattern is the most obvious on reall small exchanges with bullshit coins. Look at some of them! You KNOW they are worth nothing and all of a sudden they moon and drop.
First, most of the stuffs you have said are kind of based on assumptions. Secondly, you think big whales have just only 100 btc or 1000 btc? Think deeply bro, they have far more than that and they also group of people who make money off the panic of others. They control the market, so where do you think all those FUDs come from, you and me ? No ! It looks like the people posting here don't have that much btc/cash/funds and are almost all small fish.

Most of those FUDs are generated by them, and they leave those who are weak enough to panic and even drop at loss, so they can buy back at the bottom and wait for new set of weak hands to feed on.
