Definition

Wash trading uses coordinated wallets or bots to trade with themselves, generating fake volume without real demand. Purpose: game DEX Screener trending, DEXTools hotness, or CoinGecko volume rankings.

Modern trackers filter obvious wash patterns. Wash volume also burns real SOL on fees for zero long-term ranking gain. Organic promotion outperforms paid wash for launches with genuine community.
