“The crypto blogs put forward all sorts of bad reasons — it’s capital flight from China! It’s Bakkt offering Bitcoin futures! It’s Flexa offering retail payments in crypto! It’s Microsoft experimenting with the blockchain! — even though this was really obviously a manipulated push like so many before.“

All reasons for the price to rise or drop are obvious in hindsight. I like to see pundits make these predictions before the price event. Better yet, buy or short sell BTC, make a screenshot and put your money where your mouth is.
