Their activity distorts the trading volume picture on the platform.<\/p>\n<p>After excluding bots, the analyst presented statistics on volumes generated by real users. It turned out that only a few traders achieve significant figures.<\/p>\n<p>The real activity was distributed as follows:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>two wallets traded over $100 million;<\/li>\n<li>785 (0.005% of the total) exceeded $10 million in volume;<\/li>\n<li>11,843 (0.078%) \u2014 over $1 million;<\/li>\n<li>121,755 (0.80%) \u2014 over $100,000;<\/li>\n<li>685,160 (4.49%) \u2014 over $10,000;<\/li>\n<li>3.72 million (24.4%) \u2014 over $1,000.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The analysis emerged amid rumors of a potential airdrop of the native PUMP token. Despite the absence of official statements from developers, the crypto community widely discusses the notion that bot filtering is a standard procedure before launching token distributions. It is assumed that trading volume will be one of the key criteria for receiving the airdrop.<\/p>\n<p>Adam also added a special query to the Alpha Wallets Dashboard.
