Alexis Ohanian's mistake or market manipulation?

Short
BITFINEX:ETHUSD   Ethereum
2 days ago (May 2nd) Alexis Ohanian, reddit Co-Founder predicted the Ethereum price will reach $15,000 in 2018, the same new was published on many websites, and one day later (May 3rd) he revised his $15,000 price forecast, telling Fortune that he misspoke and meant to say that ETH would reach $1,500 in 2018.

Quoting from The Fortune:

"OHANIAN: At the end of the year, Bitcoin will be at $20,000. And Ethereum will be at $15,000.
Great, now people can call me out if I’m wrong."

Was it really a mistake or is it just market manipulation?

This update haven't been properly taken to the readers and in my honest opinion this was the main reason Ethereum price jumped up so suddenly.

Is there a correction coming?
