Rug Pull
When the creators of a crypto project suddenly sell all their tokens and disappear, crashing the price to zero.
Rug pulls are common in low-regulation meme-coin spaces. Red flags include anonymous teams, no locked liquidity, and hype with no real product. Always check if liquidity is locked and for how long.
It's like the party host taking all the drinks and snacks and running out the back door while everyone is dancing.
Real world: Many meme coins on Solana in 2024 had teams that locked liquidity for only a few days, then pulled the liquidity and sold their huge allocation. The chart went straight down and investors lost everything.
💡 If it looks too good to be true and the team is anonymous, it’s probably a rug pull waiting to happen.
