If you've been around the cryptosphere, you've probably heard both camps on whether BTC is manipulated. Many say it's the "weak hands", others blame large institutions, while other's say it's all that MT GOX guy doing another dump? What do you think? Is it manipulated? Please include your reasoning on the matter.
Yes,bitcoin has been manipulated by some people called whale but their manipulation rate can be diluted when more number of people adopted to the bitcoin system at the time the funds will be dispersed everywhere so whales may not have enough funds to dump or bump the prices.But we can't say the manipulation happening always because when we see the price chart there is some look like movements in between years so this means this called as natural price movements too.
