There's no way people would just abandon Bitcoin just because it is starting to drop or someone tip them off that Bitcoin will going to die. Bitcoin has been massacred in the past a hundred more times because they saw that their investment is failing and it pushes them to sell low like they blame Bitcoin for that, where in fact it's the supply and demand makes it possible to move up and down. Despite of the market manipulation Bitcoin will still going to survive because it is an innovative creation of technology.
