These virtual currencies, which operate independently of a central bank, are decentralized, and no one specific entity can control the price or flow of the currency. However, social media has proven to have a unique effect on cryptocurrencies, particularly smaller market currencies or coins. Individuals who own large portions of the currency and have a social media following have proven to be able to affect the price of the currency, which has raised important questions regarding these decentralized currencies, particularly concerning the impact of social media. Exploring Market Manipulation Through Cryptocurrencies and the Impact of Social Media explores the evolution, economics, and societal implications of cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology. This book critically examines the promises and risks of cryptocurrencies-volatility, regulation, environmental concerns, and fraud-while also highlighting innovation in blockchain platforms, Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), and integration with AI and IoT. Balanced and accessible, the book provides both theoretical analysis and practical insights, supported by case studies, expert interviews, and visual explanations. Covering topics such as pump-and-dump schemes, cult-like communities, and deinfluencing, this book is an essential academic resource for graduate and doctoral students, finance professionals, investors, regulators, policymakers, and more.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nesrine Gafsi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798337373119\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Igi Global Scientific Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/09\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 452\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.71lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.91d","brand":"Nesrine Gafsi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48874628481279,"sku":"9798337373119","price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/exploring-market-manipulation-through-cryptocurrencies-nesrine-gafsi-9798337373119","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
