Lol true, yet they seem to come more often these days. Any idea what's pumping it?

Click the markets tab on HIVE's CoinGecko page and you can see that we have very few exchange listings: https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/hive#markets

I wish I could say it's because of fundamentals or all the development going on here on Hive.

But it's just manipulation of a small asset.

But the one with 90% of our volume is a Korean KYC only exchange.

They are able to easily manipulate the price because of that and eventually make money arbing.

I wonder why...it always seems to be the Korean crypto community. Do they have a large presence on #hive or are they just playing the markets?

We're just small and obscure enough to easily to pump and dump.

They have always done it to STEEM and SBD too.

I'd probably say they don't know who or what we even are haha.
