I personally don't believe any of these claims as they are not backed up by any evidence or factual data. I believe that the prices of crypto coins are based on market forces of supply and demand and can be affected by news and speculation. And I believe that we should be cautious when investing in any cryptocurrency and should thoroughly research the project before investing. It is also important to understand the risks involved with investing in any asset and to never invest more than you can afford to lose.
That is true, we have seen plenty of examples where speculation and manipulation happened via media and we had to deal with it. I know that it is not going to be easy, and I know that it will take some time but that's the reality and we should learn to live with it. I am not saying that we should be forgetting about potentially having any type of improvement on our perspective of bitcoin, but when media works this hard to change ours, it is a very hard work for us to ignore that as well.
This is why market moves whenever there is a big news, up or down it doesn't matter it moves based on what the media says and that's an important part of it for sure.
