Within the last week, bitcoin has seen strong upward price movement, rising by 19 percent. However, much of that increase was within the last hour, with a massive amount of purchasing activity pushing the price of BTC from $4,190 to $5,000 on Coinbase Pro, a 19 percent jump.
Within the last hour, several large green candles have pushed the price of bitcoin from $4,190 to $5,000. The source of the large purchases is unknown, though it is likely from one, or several, whales—spurring the rest of the market into action.
That said, some have raised concerns about price manipulation:
6% in under 15 minutes. No illegal market manipulation here, no sir.
