I have the impression that every-time bitcoin starts climbing steadily, the XRP pumps like crazy 100%+ within 24h, causing doubt in the entire market!
Are altcoins like stellar and xrp harming the bitcoin price by their manipulated pumps ?
Ofcourse not this bitcoin and altcoin are in separate community which has different users and different people who are pumping them, No one knew that this altcoins will pump as well maybe this could be an coincidence between them, You can't say that they manipulated the pumps but let's say that altcoin investors are show some interest to invest their money not only in bitcoin but to those altcoins that they knew it will be that on that price sooner or later.
