Influencer claims Trump is manipulating crypto market daily

Crypto influencer Max Crypto, who has around 138,000 followers on X, alleged that U.S. President Donald Trump is manipulating the market on a daily basis. He pointed to a series of recent statements from Trump regarding Iran and their corresponding impact on the price of Bitcoin. On March 30, BTC rose by $3,000 after Trump said a deal with Iran would be reached, but it fell by $2,000 later that day when he threatened to destroy the country's power plants. The next day, the price rebounded by $2,000 following Trump's announcement that the war would soon end. On April 1, news of ongoing U.S.-Iran negotiations sent BTC up by $1,500. However, on April 2, it dropped by $2,500 after Trump stated the war would last another two to three weeks. Max Crypto added that Trump is currently wiping out both long and short positions daily with single statements.
