Bitcoin analysts point to ‘manipulation’ as BTC price falls to 17-day low

Analysts say Bitcoin’s price action is looking increasingly orchestrated, as BTC taps its lowest levels since Aug. 3 amid ongoing US selling.
Key points:
Bitcoin heads back below $113,000 at the Wall Street open as bulls fail to clinch support.
BTC price manipulation is one explanation for the downside, with exchange order-book bid liquidity in focus.
