I have been following the crypto scene for the past year and sometimes even though some companies do well their token price drastically goes down and this is the same with btc too. People like john mcafee and roger ver are always talking about how we should get ready for the bullish market but yet the price keeps on decreasing and so i'm asking how and who controls the price. If there is anyone who might be running it?
John Mcafee is what you call a influencer, and promote crypto like selling pancakes. He even charge money per promotional cryptocurrency tweet. LOL.
If you are asking who's in control, this is a free market. But you may have heard that there are whales who can easily influence the market but there are so many other players are well that we can't say that someone from behind is running the show. You can even consider bitcoin miners, specially the big one's from China. However, as far as the price goes, it's still on us traders and investors hands who can determine the price, IMHO.
