Sure. But what effect does it have on the real bitcoins? I hope I'm not being misunderstood, I'm not taking sides, I'm just trying to understand the whole picture.

I just said. It doesnt affect anything.
Bitcoin is its own thing completely seperated from that Wrapped BTC token.
During the Terra/Luna shitcoin crash, their Wrapped Bitcoin at one point was worth cents(now is at 0).
Bitcoin = Bitcoin
Wrapped Bitcoin = Shittoken on a shitcoin blockchain trying to mimic Bitcoin price.
In theory for every 1 Wrapped BTC, there must be 1 real BTC. But its a centralized entity that holds the real btc and mints the wrapped ones. Its centralized.
Why would you want to hold fake btc instead of the real thing?

A high trading volume can have an impact on the value, both up and down.
