trading futures by manupulating spot.
does institutions trade like this? :
like buying futures long position(leverages) at $10 and driving spot price(by huge capital) to upwards like something about $10.5 and selling futures at $10.5 and making profits because of leverage.
do institutions or whales trade like that?

You mean for example an institution to buy bitcoin at $26000 in spot market, manipulating the price to go higher, open long position in the derivative market with 2x leverage or more so that they can gain more?
Bitcoin market is not easily manipulated and I do not think institutions can think that way if they do not want to lose and see unexpected things to happen.
