While everyone keeps have individual opinions and speculations on the next prices of cryptos, especially on the next altcoin season, I'll say we are moving nowhere because of price manipulation by exchanges. The actions of some exchanges is dropping the prices of tokens unnaturally and these affects market and industry confidence. How can we attract new money into the market when top wash trading exchanges like Bitforex and Bibox still exists and deceives people freely?
I don't need to add links to prove, but just google these exchanges and add the wash trading to your search term, you'll be marvelled at the results you'll find.
This bitforex is just faking a volume of a token, if a project dont want to have a fake trade then forget about listing with that exchange. I know how this exchange manipulating volume of every new listed token/coin to thier exchange you can easily notice because of only few buy orders.
