Antpool gains 82 percent in 24 hours.
Via BTC up over 254 percent is this right??

What are your thoughts?

How does this effect the scarcity of the incoming bitcoins. Are the major players manipulating the network?

    How could they manipulate the network?

    They are literally powering down their miners before the difficulty rise every 2 weeks. I've seen this happen time and time again. Its becoming a very popular thing. This keeps the difficulty from rising as quickly as it should. I am just wondering peoples opinion. As I believe they are manipulating the network to obtain a larger payout, (more btc) before the demand and difficulty rise get even more astronomical. Basically tricking the network.
