Just noticed something sketchy happening with several altcoins lately. A bunch of them had crazy surges in mid-April, with RAVE and others pumping hard. Looks like classic market manipulation to me. What's wild is how some project teams are literally using these coin surges as cover to pull off pump-and-dump schemes. They create these massive hourly candles to make it look like there's real momentum, get retail investors hyped to buy in, then dump their bags and watch the price crash. I've seen this pattern repeat with FF and INX specifically. FF had a wild spike back on April 11, jumped from $0.07 to over $0.17 in like an hour, looked insane. Now it's sitting around $0.09. INX did something similar, doubled in a day while insiders were already offloading. The really concerning part? Both these projects raised serious money earlier - FF got $20M and INX pulled in $65.3M. Yet here they are resorting to these tactics just to pump their coin surges and dump on retail. It's a reminder to be careful during these speculative runs. Not everything that pumps is a real opportunity. Some of these coin surges are just exit liquidity events for teams that already got their funding.
