That would be terribly illegal in a regulated market like stocks or bonds, but in an unregulated market you can do what you want. Crazy. It's a totally unnatural market, but people are generally enjoying it so I don't give a shit. If I were 15 years younger I'd definitely gamble on it. Just not worth it now at my age.
    I hate to say this, but I think you're right.

    This is not some new buyer, it's just part of the shenanigans in manipulating the price.

    I don't even believe it would be that hard to manipulate the bitcoin market, given enough funds.

    Take a highly influential exchange like bitstamp, put in buy orders at rapidly escalating prices, then wait for the other exchanges to follow (which they always do), and then you can even back off while it naturally rises due to exuberance. Then when it stagnates, you can do it again. Then you can quickly sell at the inflated prices, wait for it to crash, and buy back in.

    Not at all difficult to believe this is happening.

    This stuff happens in regulated and unregulated markets. Druff is the last person that should be giving his opinion on anything related to Bitcoin. He has a 100% track record for being wrong.

    The market will be regulated and it's not going anywhere.

    its funny because he says whats in the box is the price of security but coincidentally its also the value of bitcoin:
