Hello @cryptoinvestor and thank you for your straightforward and level-headed insight. As an educator, I'm always trying to learn as much as possible. My question is this: Is it possible that there are some big money players that are trying to push down the price of BTC so that they may invest on or after January 15? The reason why I am asking this question is (I heard that) most executive bonuses are paid on January 15. Is it possible that the prices are being intentionally pressured downward preceding potential big payouts for large capital investors who want to become long term BTC investors? I would be curious if you have thought of this possibility. I am new to STEEMIT and am on here, in part, because of you! Again, thank you for your extremely helpful content!
