I don't care anymore what these guys have to say, I'm becoming a BTC individualist. Their words and actions will have zero effect on me.
I only hope someday BTC will reach the $1xx,xxx zone so I can fulfill some pretty basic human dreams, other than that I know this is the rich man playground; they don't care about us anyway and only want to increase their wealth, they have a huge control even if we like it or not.
I tend to agree with this idea, it seems they are using people who followed them for their own benefits and it's clear they are manipulating the market using their own power of being mass influencers. It might good for us if we stop following them, they can create FUD that might trigger people to become a panic seller and might bought again when the price is dropped.
