Bitcoin ETFs not approved. SEC Twitter account got hacked. \ stacker news ~bitcoin

Something really odd happened. The price of bitcoin fall before Gary Gensler post about the hack. In fact the price recovered after his post tille there is a second regain and post about the hack.

Seems to be that there was inside information but not well coordinated to wait to some posts.

I guess that this must be investigated. Who won?

The guy that bought and sold on top.
The SEC because now they will wait for Q2 for the approval.

Who lost? The people.

This isn't odd. It makes 100% sense.

The hacker knew what he was doing and traded btc, probably with leverage. Large trades move exchange rates.

They got hacked is almost certainly a lie. So what really happened? Intentional market manipulation? Maybe, but that might be a little too obvious.

My speculation so far...

Someone did approve the ETF and the tweet went out.
Then someone else with higher authority reneged on the approval.
Caught with their pants down they lied about the hack.

Still, any explanation is pretty wild to think about. None of these things look good for the SEC and it certainly reinforces clown world 🤡

I don't think this is a hack, I believe it's manipulation at its highest order and we should expect more of that once an ETF is approved.

Hodling and DCA is bae.

most large firms use various social media services to schedule and post messages....perhaps someone set the schedule wrong? Tues at 4pm instead of Weds at 4pm....?

What do we really think will happen I think it won't get approved anytime soon just too much work for them to do... eventually will it yes in an attempt to regulate it and also price manipulation as it did with gold and silver... end of the day etfs are for lazy people who don't dyor why would a person by paper gold, silver,s&p 500, bitcoin over the real thing..
