The Dumpy.fun protocol unveiled a new solution that will allow traders to make money in the meme coin market through short squeezes.
The team behind Dumpy.fun, a trading platform powered by the Solana blockchain, revealed the upcoming launch of squeezy.lol, a short squeeze feature. This new tool will enable traders to capitalize on closing short positions in meme coins.
The new tool will allow traders to identify assets with strong short positions. From there, traders can mobilize the community to trigger a price surge in the asset, forcing investors to close their short positions and allowing traders to profit from the short squeeze.
A short squeeze is a sharp rise in the price of an asset that forces market participants who opened short positions to close them in order to minimize losses. As they buy the asset at the rising price, this further drives the price up.
In the meme coin market, sharp price movements are common, so the Dumpy.fun team believes this new tool will be highly popular among traders who are used to profiting from sudden increases or drops in meme coin prices. The short squeeze tool, according to the developers, could also become a key factor in driving up meme coin prices. The squeezy.lol feature will be launched on the platform on August 27.
The popularity of meme coins is rapidly growing, thanks to the success of Pump.fun, a Solana-based meme coin minting platform. Similar platforms are being created and actively developed on other blockchains. For example, Sun Pump, a new meme coin trading platform on the Tron network, generated $1 million in fees just 11 days after launch. However, independent analysts warn that the chances of profiting from investing in meme coins are extremely low.
