The SEC needs to do something about these pump and dump schemes.

Like all other Forbes lists, this is nothing more than speculative bullshit.

Just plucking numbers out of thin air.

I see two main points in the article.

1. Start an exchange
2. Have lots of money to start with.

Still pointless. I mean if you get rich via (total) coins that you hold.

I own xxxK of NEBL/ONION and M of OXY. Even if i try to dump 10%-20% of my holding, it already crash the market.

Its not easy to liquid the coin than you think.

It only good on paper.

Well I heard some of the gurus on here tried to withdraw some of their bitcoin on about the 18th of Dec to buy the 11 or 12 year old gfs something for Christmas, now 6 weeks later the banks are even selling some of their Dow Jones shares to cope with the impact. Might not be true though.
