🧠 How they make money (the harsh reality)



1️⃣ Fake liquidity creation
• Keep pushing the price → buyers get tired of selling
• During pump: pull extremely fast
• Onlookers think:
“Good news / large inflow of funds”

👉 In reality, it’s just the team’s money passing hands.



2️⃣ Trigger greed + fear of missing out (FOMO)
• Candles +70–100% in one day
• Top gainers, high on the exchange rankings
• Chat rooms, Twitter, Telegram start hyping

👉 Newcomers are the ones providing profits for them.



3️⃣ Controlled dumping
• Don’t dump all at once
• Sell gradually on the last buyers
• When retail holders are full → withdraw liquidity
→ price freefalls



❗ Why is it called “scam” straightforwardly?
• ❌ No product, no revenue
• ❌ No real roadmap
• ❌ Price doesn’t reflect value
• ❌ Early entrants know the script in advance

👉 Essentially:

It’s no different from a casino, just called crypto.



🧭 What do smart people do to avoid getting drained?

✅ 1. Look at the structure first, then the percentage
• +100% in a day → AVOID
• Good coins don’t need to be pumped

✅ 2. Only play when:
• Long-term accumulation
• Volume gradually increases before price rises
• Verified news

✅ 3. If you must play trash coins
• Only use money you’re willing to lose
• Enter early, exit very early
• Don’t love the coin, see it as a tool



🧠 Honestly tell you one thing:

The team’s operators don’t scam conscious people—they only make money from those who don’t understand the game.
