When the Winklevoss twins became aware of BTC (or at least shortly after they started talking about it publicly), some classic market manipulation ploys began appearing.

It could be coincidental, but I've always been suspicious that the Winklevoss twins were the first people of a mind and with the capital to start gaming the BTC market as one can any other financial institution.

The Winklevii are not people I'd like to distantly do business with.

Edit: I'm trying to find articles but it was years ago. What I recall were cycles of Ramps and Bear Raids. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Market_manipulation
