Do humans use air everyday? Of course they manipulating, they are whales its their point of trading
If you ask about humans who use air every day, then the answer is YES, because without air you can't live yourself, if you don't believe it, try holding your breath for half an hour.
Just like the whales, it is considered as one of the important part of crypto ecosystem, they move the market the way it should be and we badly needed them despite of them manipulating the market. This market will not grow without the whales, they have the money and power. They are manipulating the market, we should not panic instead learn from them, ride with them and earn profit with them this is the trend for years now.
Perhaps, they have the reason why they live in crypto. Manipulation can be resulting in bad or good, disadvantages or advantages.
We sometimes can say that manipulation ruins the market but instead, this helps people to make money out of the volatility of the market and helps the market to get known to everyone.
But if you are unlucky and miss the train, you will end up losing.
