When liquidity dries up in altcoin markets, desperation breeds chaos. It's becoming increasingly common to see coordinated groups exploit their own members through fabricated insider tips. The scarcity of trading volume forces bad actors to prey on their closest circles—those they feed selective information to. It's a brutal reminder that in illiquid markets, trust becomes a luxury few can afford. The mechanics are simple: limited liquidity means easier price manipulation, which attracts opportunists willing to turn on their own network. This kind of internal fraud accelerates when legitimate trading opportunities vanish.
