Yes, Bitcoin is mathematical—its code, supply schedule (21 million max), halving events, and mining algorithms are all math-based and transparent. That's part of what makes it powerful.

BUT… the price of Bitcoin?

That’s driven by human behavior—which includes emotions, speculation, hype, fear, and yes... manipulation. 😅😂

💥 So can Bitcoin be manipulated?

Short-term?

Absolutely. Whales, institutions, coordinated news drops, and even social media influencers can cause huge price swings.

Think of:

Fake ETF news pumping prices

Exchange wash trading

Big sell walls or flash crashes

Coordinated FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt)

Long-term?

Much harder. Over time, Bitcoin tends to reflect broader adoption, macro trends, and supply/demand fundamentals.

So, yeah—math runs Bitcoin, but the market runs wild sometimes. Welcome to crypto. 😎📉📈
