Markets can be manipulated by whales by just putting big walls or make a short dump period that will result a pnic attack to those weak hands.
That is the privilege of those people who trust the cryptocurrency earlier.
And to those who have big budgets. But if we will be all wise and know how crypto market works, this can be provided.
The market is always under the influence. Not only that whales, so also speculators who give false information. And the only thing that can save is to get enough knowledge and just stop reading the news. Based only on the market movement.
