Its not, bitcoin is not being controlled by the bots becayse bots are just there for a busy trader and of course those traders play the game according to their plan. .
bots are useful or can be devastating depending on the user . your right , busy traders use bots and this kind of traders are sometimes big time traders which is mistaken as a whale that manipulates the market .
How sure are you that bot controls the market price of Bitcoin? You should provide enough information regarding this claims to make people understand why you have an assumption on the price of Bitcoin been controlled. we all know that the price of bitcoin is mostly controlled by people with huge amount of bitcoin but not bot, so why are you saying the opposite??
yes price is controled by people but people that trades can use bots because they cant watch the market on most times . like op , other people also suspect that exchanges are invaded by bots and they both think that these bots are responsibe for the ups and downs but not just bots , regular traders that trade manually are also included on the manipulation .
