Why then did Bitcoin literally crash after his post that Tesla won't accept Bitcoin anymore? Isn't that manipulation per definition? I would say so.
Why do people get manipulated so easily? Bitcoin is not about Tesla. Ok, people no longer can buy car with a Bitcoin. So was? Not everyone dreamed to do it. This is not a manipulation, but herd instinct. One dumb started making big deal from it, other pumped that, which caused to a panic sale. I dont even think that many has bought tesla using Bitcoin. From my point of view, this is not a manipulation, but shortsightedness of some individuals.
