#CryptoComeback What is the purpose of pushing prices up or driving them down? That is the goal of the exchange and the market makers (MM). For example, when pushing the price up like in the current phase, financial institutions and holders want to increase the price to offload their assets at a high price, and they want to push the price further up and offload their assets, which requires a corresponding number of buyers. If not, the price will collapse according to market principles. Therefore, making the assertion that BTC will continue to rise and not decrease is to attract FOMO buying demand, encouraging new players to jump in, while holders of short positions feel psychologically compelled to close their positions at a loss (which is also a form of buying). Thus, this will push the price up or prevent it from collapsing, allowing them to sell at a higher price. But remember, the purpose of pushing the price is the goal of the exchange and MM. MM can offload their assets at a high price, while the exchange can liquidate more assets. Once MM offloads their assets, the price will likely collapse due to the overwhelming amount of assets held by MM. At this point, there aren't many new players entering the market, and there is no large influx of money to absorb the selling pressure. Experienced players won't jump in for FOMO at this point. Therefore, the speed of collapse will be very high.
