I don't think anyone with any credibility says things like this unless they are either capable of manipulating the price (or know someone who is, and who will), or unless they are trying to hype it for short term gain.

But some people proably ARE manipulating the price. Who are they ?

Nope, still alive and kicking. Still no proof they're doing something illegal. If there was proof, it wouldn't exist anymore.
