Fifteen individuals who were identified to have manipulated the market through operations carried out on the Istanbul Stock Exchange were apprehended and taken into custody. Such operations are important steps in maintaining market order and ensuring investor confidence in centralized exchange systems. Similar manipulation schemes in the cryptocurrency markets, such as pump-and-dump schemes and compliance issues, require regulators to be vigilant. Creating transparency and a fair trading environment in stock transactions is critically important both in traditional financial systems and in decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms.

Centralized exchanges arrest people, and decentralized ones still end up cutting the leeks, haha

Good job on catching that, but I'm just worried you'll switch to another disguise and continue to scam.

The pump dogs have finally been caught, and it was long overdue. But the real question is, who will oversee DeFi? On-chain manipulation remains rampant.

Good catch, but where are the real big fish? Only 15 of these?

Traditional exchanges are cracking down, while DeFi is still growing wildly. The gap is really outrageous.

Honestly, these pump-and-dump schemes have been rampant in the crypto space for too long. It's finally good to see traditional exchanges taking action. --- Grabbing 15? Feels like just the tip of the iceberg. Such activities should have been strictly regulated long ago. --- DeFi is even more chaotic. On-chain manipulation is impossible to detect, right... --- We've been calling for transparency for so long. How exactly will it be implemented? --- Strict crackdown is necessary, or retail investors will get wiped out.

Hey really, this time the crackdown is somewhat effective... but I just want to complain, traditional exchanges can be so strict in their inspections, how come the trash coins in DeFi are pumped every day? --- Wow, finally someone is taking it seriously, but these 15 people are probably just small players compared to the projects that scam retail investors every day... --- Good job on the crackdown, but unfortunately it's just treating the symptoms and not the root cause. The real whales just change their masks and start again. --- Basically, it's because centralized exchanges are strictly regulated, so those people moved to DeFi... The crypto world is still very wild. --- Wait, this operation pattern is the same as some pump schemes of certain coins... I just remembered. --- Is it enough to just catch the people? What I care about is whether investors can lose their money... --- Honestly, the original goal of Bitcoin to be decentralized has now become its biggest vulnerability.
