About Manipulations !! 🤔 Many "crypto enthusiasts" often complain that the cryptocurrency market (especially recently) is being manipulated by some - "unknown Whales". They supposedly transfer liquidity from one coin (token) to another, or simply make loud statements through certain "Media Opinion Leaders" (like Musk, Trump, Changpeng Zhao ... and others). You can continue the list at your discretion. There are plenty to choose from (!). 😉 But here’s what I would like to ask the crypto community (!). Do you really consider yourselves just (and only) - "sheep for manipulation" ..??! 🙄. Have you ever had the desire to turn this situation, as they say, - "upside down" ..?! 🥺 And let these (so-called Whales, like Saylor ... and similar), continue to believe in only BTC, buying as much as they can (!). But the point is, if we ourselves do not play along - "turning ourselves into FODDER", and giving them a chance to offload about US (!), they are unlikely to remain profitable while wiping out our investments ... !!! 🤫 And someone might ask "HOW is this possible?". In my opinion, it’s quite simple! (continued)
