- Phantom, an anonymous crypto trader, exploits vulnerabilities in the meme coin market to earn $60,000-$65,000 weekly.
- Using automated tools like DogWiffTools, Phantom creates fake demand, drawing in unsuspecting investors before dumping tokens.
- 98.5% of tokens launched on Pump.Fun are rug-pulled, leaving legitimate buyers with worthless assets.
- Former Pump.Fun employees have also been implicated in similar scams, underscoring the platform’s systemic issues.
