what I can see is that most of the new investors had given no interest to know more about the project. They are just riding on the market flow, buy now and sell later. And they will leave soon when the Bullrun will end and these types of people had no plan to commit long-term investment but just a short-term deal. So, we can't expect them to take care of the crypto world but they could be the reason for the market failure.
Yes, that is the big differences between investors and traders. We cannot expect traders will be continuously persisting in this crypto space by contributing in all the means for building stronger marketcap for the entire cryptos. But they are all working only for their own benefits and we can expect them to pull off at any time which will definitely affect all the other investors who are all planning for long term holding.
But, we must need these traders to take our market into new heights so that the investors will keep attracting and will be coming-in. So everything is happening for a reason and over the time it will end up in good reason like building more stronger this crypto space.
I believe the damage traders could cause is limited except for a couple of coins that are thin in volume and only pumped. Bitcoin and Ethereum benefit from so much more apart from just getting pumped. Ethereum is under constant development and Bitcoin has the first mover advantage a really strong following in general. Even the big players won't be interested in cashing the price at all. Those who hold a lot of Bitcoin will either try to sell slowly or not sell at all. Unless the exchanges don't collude am not afraid of heavy dumping. The exchanges always win no matter where the price goes for as long as the volume stays high and it will stay high because everyone is excited about crypto.
