This headline is a joke as I feel with most of these "stock went up" headlines. There is an increase in the price of Bitcoin in the last 6 hours: that means very little. Stocks go up and down with no clear way to predict whether the trend will continue.
Yeah, 10% swings either way is simply a regular day for Bitcoin. It’s the medium-term trend that looks a bit worrisome for bulls.
remember these finance newspapers reward for "moving the market".

WSJ sends out press release to other newsrooms saying how they are leading on cryptocurrencies reporting. Don't have to think too far to see why the headlines are similar...

Whatever happened to the MTGOX payout?
It has been tied up in courts for years.
The most recent estimates put the "early" payout at sometime this year. See https://bitcoinbuilder.com/.

Bitcoin will be fine until Chia finally overtakes.
So now will start again the pump stage?
Perhaps there is some truth to the dark rumor that this is price manipulation, but not by the mega-whales as in previous sell-offs, but by the institutionals, the Citadels, the Blackrocks of the Earth, that are now backing up with dumptracks for their clients pensions funds 1% crypto exposure?
From what I hear, a lot of pensions, institutions and major banks are already invested in btc. I think it's possible that it helped sustain the elevated prices over the past year. The problem, I think, is that once demand slows the price starts to dive.
How long will these professional investors wait around for a return while prices approach half what they paid?

Not even /r/superstonk believes those ridiculous Citadel and blackrock rumours;)
Let's not spread FUD without a shred of evidence. Do Blackrock and Citadel even have crypto trading arms to their corps?
Common sense dictates that alot of people said they'd reload when it got to $30,000 and after it breached that mark people started buying.
Also remember that UST sold alot of BTC recently to try and hold its UST peg, which just meant BTC on sale for the rest of us.
I guess one good thing form this is that Tether held its peg for the most part, which should help things find a floor in a gentle manner:)

Gemini also debunked it. So there is evidence to the contrary.

I just don't see how this is common sense. If lots of people actually reloaded below $30k you'ld see buying a day before at $28k and it never would have hit $26k to wander around below $29k all day (it hasn't hit 30 since it hit 26). Replacing FUD with FOMO isn't better.
Also, a stablecoin peg that "only" loses 5% in a day is awful. That's 1,800% inflation annualized! Or more realistically look at the scandal and lawsuits when moneymarket funds that paid interest lost 0.5-1% intraday during the 2008 financial crisis.

or people are human and it takes a day to follow through.
We're not all robots that watch for the minute it hits a number:)

Fully agree with the first part, the second part is jsut silly as we aren't talking about this happening day over day as the peg was restored with in hours, so that hyperbole really weakened your argument:(

Everyone is manipulating the market by buying and selling.
Or crypto just behaves like leveraged QQQ. NDQ is down 25%.
are you joking
