$ENSO 🧠 How “gamblers” operate the pump-and-dump chain (in practice)
1️⃣ Creating scam coins = very easy • Fork existing code (ERC20 / BSC) • Give them AI / DeFi / Web3 / Layer names • No need for products, no need for users • Cost: a few hundred to a few thousand USD
👉 Compared to the dump profits: very cheap.
⸻
2️⃣ Pump coin A to collect money • Keep the price high for a long time → attract all the bored investors • Pump for 1–2 days: • +70% • +100% • Top gainers • Retail investors rush in → real liquidity appears
👉 Retail’s real money = the house’s profit.
⸻
3️⃣ Dump ENSO (for example) in a “cultured” way
Looking at the chart you sent: • Withdrawal of demand → long red candles • Price quickly drops to EMA • People chasing get stuck at the top
👉 At this point, the house has collected enough.
⸻
4️⃣ Hold that money → pump coin B (NOM, other coins) • Repeat the same script: • Sideways movement • Sell deep • Pump sharply • Retail investors again think: “Wow, this coin is stronger than that coin”
👉 Essentially, it’s the same flow of money, just changing the coin’s name.
⸻
❗ Why is it called “scam” directly? • ❌ No value creation • ❌ No product creation • ❌ No transparent information sharing • ❌ Latecomers have no fair chance
👉 This is a zero-sum game:
To have a winner → necessarily means someone loses.
⸻
🔥 Looking at ENSO now, it’s clear it’s a “money dump” phase • Peak at 2.5 → quickly falls to 1.75 • EMA5 breaks, EMA10 gets tested • Volume of dumping increases
👉 The show phase is over.
⸻
🧭 What should aware people do?
✅ 1. Don’t hate crypto — hate the right targets • Crypto ≠ scam coins • Scam coins ≠ the market
