For this PIPPIN move, shorters, hold steady and don’t panic; longs, remember to take profits when you can! Personally, I think this coin can still push up to 0.25.

I checked the on-chain data, and money has been flowing in over the last 30 minutes, 1 hour, and 4 hours. This explains why the price just hasn’t dropped in the past 24 hours—there’s capital propping it up.

Looking back at when it started? The market cap wasn’t even 100 million. The float was ridiculously small, so the main players could pump the price with just a bit of money. What’s even crazier is that it happened to coincide with a 212 million fund inflow over these past 7 days, pushing the market cap straight to 200 million! Riding this wave of hype, retail investors got pulled in to take over the bags—a textbook example of a price surge fueled by capital. Once the hot money leaves? The market cap will most likely fall.

The whales are playing this game perfectly: taking advantage of retail investors’ fear of missing out. They deliberately create the illusion of a continuous rally, forcing retail to chase in at the top. On the surface it looks like money is coming in, but actual trading volume is already shrinking.

Shorts saw the price spike too fast and jumped in, only for the whales to push it even higher and liquidate all those new short positions. Not only do they profit from the liquidations, but the released funds can also drive the price even higher—that’s why the liquidation numbers are so crazy!

Right now, whether you’re long or short, you’re dancing on the corpses of the bears. Both sides are gambling with their lives, licking blood off the knife’s edge.

From the data, the whales can still push it higher, with upside likely in the 0.25-0.29 range. Shorts, get your margin ready—the whales will definitely pump it one last time before dumping. If you can hold on, you win!
