Could you elaborate on the unethical and potentially illegal practice of a "cryptocurrency pump and dump"? I've heard whispers of this strategy in crypto circles, but I'm unsure of the specifics. Isn't it simply buying a large amount of a cryptocurrency to artificially inflate its price, then selling it off quickly to profit from the sudden spike? How does one execute such a scheme without raising suspicions or violating regulations? Surely, there must be sophisticated methods involved to evade detection and avoid legal consequences.

This is because such assets are thinly traded, meaning they lack significant liquidity.

When a surge in trading volume occurs, the asset's price is more likely to move favorably due to the lack of significant buying or selling pressure.
