Bitcoin's price is primarily driven by market manipulation fueled by arbitrary Tether-tron printing. Tether-tron is used entirely internally by a criminal syndicate in order to create fraudulent chinese 'cookie cutter' exchanges, in a manner similar to casino chips - ie - "Here's $100 million for your new exchange, that you can only use to buy crypto within 'the family', incidentally pumping up their prices along the way'".

This is in addition to the arbitrary Tether-eth printing that you ought to be well aware of.
