People did things to frustrate the world of cryptocurrency because they wanted to frustrate its users too.We bitcoiners wanted to help anyone most especially newbies not to believe its current situation where FUDS were everywhere and wanted to manipulate the downfall of price that cause people to panic.I can call it as price manipulation because when people panic they dump their coins instead of holding it inorder to cut their losses.The crypto community wanted to make bitcoin to stay in its standing as the strongest digital currency but if we are weak in the sense that if we hear anything negative about bitcoin we easily believe then we are not worth of having bitcoin in our lives.
