What is a “pump” in crypto?

A pump is when the price of a cryptocurrency rises rapidly in a short time. But it’s not always due to solid fundamentals… many times it’s due to narratives that create hype.

What is a narrative in crypto?

A narrative is a story that the market begins to believe. Examples:

  • “AI tokens will dominate the future”

  • “Real world assets (RWAs) will revolutionize DeFi”

When enough people believe in that story, the price goes up... even if the project does not yet have concrete results

Where do these narratives originate?

$BNB Educate yourself to detect them in:

  • Trends on X (Twitter)

  • Crypto influencer threads

  • Telegram/Discord groups

  • Events, conferences, or regulatory news

  • Sudden volume in little-known tokens

    Real example: RWA narrative$XRP

    Tokens like MANTRA (OM), Polymesh, and Ondo Finance rose x10 in weeks. Why?
    The narrative was: “Crypto is connecting with the real world.”
    Retail investors entered late, whales took profits.

    How to educate to trade intelligently$BTC

    • Detect narratives early (before the hype)

    • Avoid entering on green candles (when it has already exploded)

    • Exit when influencers say “this will be the next big thing”

    “Smart money doesn’t just follow the charts… it follows the story.”
