Market Manipulation or Strategy?
The alleged interest of BlackRock in temporarily reducing the price of Bitcoin has generated speculation in the crypto community. However, many analysts dismiss this possibility, pointing out that BTC fluctuations are usually driven by macroeconomic factors, such as decisions from the Federal Reserve and the performance of the US dollar.
On the other hand, institutional interest in Bitcoin has grown significantly in 2024, driven by the launch of spot ETFs and the perception of Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation.
Kiyosaki's statements highlight the tensions between the inherent decentralization of Bitcoin and the growing institutional interest. Although the theory of manipulation cannot be confirmed, his comment reflects valid concerns about how large institutions could influence the market.
Meanwhile, the future of Bitcoin remains optimistic for many cryptocurrency advocates, with experts like Kiyosaki encouraging investors to adopt a long-term perspective in the face of current volatility.
