Ever notice what happens when you're watching trades flow across a DEX? You'll spot two types of movers on Dexscreener:



🐳 - The massive wallets creating waves

🦐 - The smaller players hopping in and out

Here's the thing: both matter. The whales set the direction and provide liquidity that keeps the market moving. But the shrimp? They're the ones actually testing the water, creating volume, building momentum. Together they create the market dynamics you see playing out in real time. Neither one wins alone.

That's right, but when the whales dump, even the shrimp are doomed. What's the point of cooperation?

ngl, everyone's always obsessed with whale watching but nobody talks about the real exploit vectors here. you're moving millions across dexscreener? ⚠️ CRITICAL: check your contract interactions first. seen this setup before - classic MEV extraction pattern. not saying rugpull, but... DYOR before you become the shrimp.

Shrimp follow the trend and gather dust, whales are the real big bosses.

Whales can win just by lying around, while small fry are the real fighters. Only together can we energize the market.

Whales and shrimps each have their own roles, and it does make some sense.

That's right, whales just accumulating isn't enough; they also need shrimp to take the bait.
