Bitcoin Market Manipulation - Omniscient - Feb 25, 2026
I swear, the ETF's are a huge negative for Bitcoin. Allowing paper Bitcoin will corrupt the free market.
Do you think this dump is artificial?

Good call, and the prices will become more and more normalized at best with less upsides too...
I don't think the dump is artificial, it's aligned with TA from last year. If you look at how many people were in the profit for so long, it makes some sense that we're seeing lower numbers. The markets couldn't get enough traction at 90-120 after a lot of attempts, so seeing 40-70 makes sense to me.

It continues as I scroll through X.
This is bad. What a bunch of BULLSHIT.
BlackRock and ETF's fucking over the market.

We could be over $200k if there wasn't manipulation at $120k.
My guess, CIA and Mossad to ensure the US dollar didn't collapse into nothing yet while crypto skyrockets. Also to dump and accrue as much BTC as possible from weak hands before the inevitable pump to $200k+.
Fucking criminal.

Yeah, the recurring dumps look super artificial since the timing was way too consistent, and it suspiciously stopped right after the Jane Street Terraform lawsuit news hit.
The timing correlation is just kinda odd. Pattern vanishes/price rips/traders scream 'Jane Street' is running a daily algo to push down and shake out long and buy cheaper using something like ETF hedging.
Of course there's no hard proof yet that ties them directly to ongoing BTC suppression, but the suit is Terra-specific. Could be coincidence, oversold bounce, or macro rotation.
Big kid on the playground being a dick and slamming the opposite side of the seesaw down super hard, but when he heard someone told the teacher, out of nowhere he stops being a dick and the issue is suddenly gone.
We'll see.

I wonder if anything will happen or if this will just be a civil lawsuit

BlackRock is all I had to read, they own everything, including you!

You don't want the price going straight up and to the right.
You want time to accumulate don't you?
If BTC went up to $1,000,000 overnight you'd be like sad you didn't have more.

The way BTC is moving is normal market behavior. Emotions are involved because it's not going in the majority favor. I didn't hear manipulation when BTC was making new all-time highs, and at those price levels, everyone had unrealistic expectations 100k to 500k.
