Pump

The price of a digital asset increases, often at a faster pace or in larger moves than normal. Actors, celebrities, social media influencers, professional athletes, and tweets from Elon Musk have all been involved in pumping the crypto market

Example

Dogecoin pumped 40% in a single hour after a celebrity tweeted a meme about the token, attracting a wave of retail buyers.
