This is probably some organized pump and dump type scheme by key players.

    Of course it is. Something like 2/3 of all BTC are held by a handful of people/companies.

    Another fun-but-useless fact I like to remind myself of re: crypto is that, back in its early days (`12?), an old friend gave me a birthday gift of thumbdrive w/ BTC = my birth date (double digit) ...and I have absolutely no idea where it is.

    When I was fully cashing TFO (before one of the crashes, ironically), I may've spent waaaay too long trying to find that >$200k memstick. 🥴😂🤷🏼‍♂️
