Bitcoin real manipulation haven't really started.
In the future when BTC gets to a certain price point and the price start to get stagnant, also there isn't much coins to mine or maybe the mining ends.
The only way to make BTC more interesting again is reset, I don't know how this will go but I believe this will be the only way for future whales and men in power to make money, they have to create a mess for holders to dump, lies will actually be more effective then.
This is why I don't believe in 100 Sats becoming 100cents. It is going to be a tough time.
The future of Bitcoin is not certain we all know Bitcoin to be volatile and it will continue to be in the coming years the market price will shift which cause a bump in Bitcoin price. Despite the challenges Bitcoin has shown resilience so am not afraid that Bitcoin will still be a force to reckon with in the future. Nevertheless let’s all keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best
