Based on data I saw in CMC the price of bitcoin went up within a few hours about $700, which was originally $10600 now at $11375, whether this is just a manipulation as whales do to provoke the ongoing FOMO, which then whales will take profit and the price will dump or will rise steadily until the end of the year as experts predict until it rises to $12000
The price is up a bit, but it's nothing to get too excited about. Such things happen very often, I think it's just fluctuations. Just a few days ago someone was complaining about a low price, so maybe the ideas that Bitcoin's too low built up, people started buying more and the price is now higher. There are some major events that affect the price deeply (and usually in a negative way), but this change is so insignificant that I wouldn't even bother reading hypotheses why this happened. This probably isn't even a trend as the price already went down a bit. So nothing new.
