For us retail traders or investors we cant do nothing but to bare with it since we dont have the capacity to fight of the trend or such decisions thats why we do mind up on utilizing that movement to make profits somehow.
It's not as bad as it looks. As much as the manipulators can benefit from what they do, we can follow their patterns closely and benefit as well. Most people with common sense cashed out profits during the rally and have bought back way lower. The only people without that advantage due to the moment they entered the crypto space are newbies, but then again, who on earth buys something that has gone up 15-20 times within 12 months? It's just retarded, especially so if they actually thought the price would keep pumping way beyond the levels they bought at. In this case it's not the manipulation that should be blamed....
