The altcoin market looks exciting… until it empties your wallet.
Let’s talk about how you’re being trapped — and how to avoid it like a pro.
5 Hidden Altcoin Traps to Watch Out For:
1. Pump & Dump Hype
Sudden 5x–10x price moves pushed by influencers… then crashes.
Tip: If it pumps without news or volume, it’s a setup.
2. Liquidity Traps
You can buy easily… but when you try to sell? Price crashes.
Tip: Always check trading volume + slippage first.
3. Fake Technical Breakouts
Looks like a breakout, but dumps after trapping long positions.
Tip: Wait for volume confirmation + retest.
4. Narrative Coins With No Real Use
Built to ride hype trends like “AI” or “RWA” — zero utility.
Tip: If the whitepaper is just buzzwords, skip it.
5. Rugpull or Scam Contracts
Anonymous team, shady tokenomics, no audit — recipe for disaster.
Tip: Use tools like TokenSniffer & RugDoc before touching.
Pro Tips to Stay Safe:
✅ DYOR always
✅ Avoid FOMO candles
✅ Study tokenomics (unlock, supply, holders)
✅ Never invest just because “everyone on X is”
✅ Use stop-losses like your portfolio depends on it (because it does)
📌 Don’t be exit liquidity. Be the smart money.
