The post Is Trump Manipulating the Crypto Market?\u00a0<\/a> appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News<\/a><\/p>\n

Every time Trump makes a statement, Bitcoin moves thousands of dollars up or down. Crypto analyst Max Crypto is now openly calling it out, saying no chart, no indicator, and no strategy can protect traders when one man’s statement can wipe out your position in minutes.<\/p>\n

To back his statement, the analyst highlighted<\/a> a pattern between Trump\u2019s remarks and Bitcoin\u2019s price direction over the past few days. <\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s Comments Trigger Sharp Bitcoin Swings<\/strong><\/h2>\n

According to Max Crypto, every single major price move in Bitcoin price over the past four days has lined up perfectly with a statement made by U.S. President Donald Trump about the ongoing US-Iran conflict<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The timeline shared by the analyst shows multiple market reactions.\u00a0<\/p>\n

On March 30, Trump posted on Truth Social saying the U.S. was in “serious discussions” with a new Iranian regime, and Bitcoin jumped, with short liquidations totaling about $340 milliom. <\/p>\n

But within the same day, the mood flipped completely. Trump turned around and threatened<\/a> to destroy Iran’s power plants and energy infrastructure, and Bitcoin shed roughly $2,000 just as fast as it had gained.<\/p>\n

On March 31, Trump softened his tone again, hinting that the war could end soon. Bitcoin responded by climbing $2,000. <\/p>\n

Then on April 1, Trump spoke about “serious discussions<\/a>” happening with Iran, which pushed Bitcoin up 2.2% to nearly $68,000, while Ethereum surged 4.4% and Solana rose 3.4%. <\/p>\n

Then came April 2, and the rug pull nobody wanted. Trump’s primetime address promised to hit Iran “extremely hard” over the next two to three weeks, reversing the short-lived global market rally and sending Bitcoin down 3% to $66,309. Every major token in the top 10 fell with it.<\/p>\n
