Influencer Andrew Tate's recent Bitcoin prediction has come under scrutiny after on-chain data revealed potential market manipulation. Last month, Tate warned of a Bitcoin drop to $26,000, yet his wallet showed purchases exceeding $5 million at lower prices, contradicting his public statements. This tactic resembles institutional strategies of secretly buying while publicly shorting. In response, Pepeto Exchange is developing a third-phase verification system to enhance transparency by disclosing influencer holdings in real-time. Analyst Maria Rodriguez highlighted that while Tate's actions are not illegal, they expose vulnerabilities in the current market infrastructure. Pepeto aims to bridge the gap between public narratives and actual market positions, with new meme coin projects expected to launch in 2026.
