    Who tried to corner the crypto coin market and then got their heads handed to them?

    Bitcoin , shot up , I suspect far less manipulated than just a lot of "people" buying, I mean how do you manipulate without buying , and how is buying manipulating ?

    Very easy. You “buy” with tethers that are created our thin air. It is that simple.

    Yes there's market manipulators in Bitcoin, just like there's market manipulators in whatever stock market you go to. Get over it, and learn to trade with the manipulators or get rekkted.

    Very true , in fact any buying or selling will influence the market to a larger or lesser extent , profiting from actual buying or selling from the simple action of buying or selling is a little harder , and as for Red Duke's buying "tether" to raise Bitcoin's price , that doesn't make sense , tether would reduce buying of bitcoin as it was introduced from "thin air", as it competes for buyers, increases supply of cryptocurrencies.
