PriceIsRight 342 Posted April 25, 2018 Out of the top 100 listed on CMC only 7 are Green, XRP is not the only one affected by whatever is going on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted April 25, 2018 Someone gave a 5M sell order and it went down and up as seen. Again, makes absolutely no sense that someone would simply dump everything at one go. I am beginning to think a relatively deep pocketed individual is trying to scare XRP investors or a completely clueless kid got a hold of the trading account of his parents is willing to cash out for a new toy and has no clue what he is doing? !?

Member278576 36 Posted April 25, 2018 I think @galgitron posted something from a similar dump on twitter some days ago. I would guess blatant manipulation, but of course, have no evidence for that. Just very odd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is why we need regulation. 2 MisterHappy and MattA reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is why we need regulation. Lol what? How would regulation help that? This is simply a large sell order, which can be done on any markets.. theres nothing illegal at all about it. The only reason we see such drastic changes in prices is due to low volume in crypto compared to stocks. Are you saying when crypto is regulated people won't be allowed to do large sell orders? LOL 1 MattA reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LOL 1.7 billion isn't that low. If you were the one with a stop loss im pretty sure you wouldn't be the one laughing right now. This is pure manipulation and shouldn't be allowed. On Bitstamp XRP/BTC went like 99% down in 1 min sure that was a big sell order I don't believe it. 1 MattA reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Raz 655 Posted April 25, 2018 I’m pretty sure a whale or mainuplator doesn’t dump their chest for 60% less than the market rate. I would imagine they will place many incrementally lower priced buy orders to drive the price down. Selling that low only causes a feeding frenzy and then it’s gone.

Inequivalent 71 Posted April 25, 2018 So you guys are saying the Exchanges are behind this and manipulating the prices? Oh good god, do you like Alex Jones too? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
