You don’t believe that an unregulated and anonymous money like crypto doesn’t have its price manipulated?

True, but the market decides what it’s ultimately worth. For example, Monero, on the 365-day moving average, is worth $152.31. And it fluctuates within about 6% of that level, almost always.

It’s weird to me that you believe the market ultimately decides what crypto is worth while acknowledging manipulation happens, but don’t believe the market ultimately decides what the US dollar is worth while acknowledging the fed controls the rate of inflation.
