Andy you spent years documenting the paper market manipulation of gold and silver....why do you think Bitcoin is any different? These exchanges trade all BTC in existence in a 2 or 3 day period. That is a fraud! Someone is driving the price down to buy it on the cheap and probably moving it off exchanges into hard wallets. Then when they get all the weak hands to dump, they will run it up the same way like they do with gold and silver: wash, rinse, repeat!
