Stocks, gold and oil
Binance futures on stocks and commodities. They move slower than coins: for them 3-5% in a day is already a big move.
Lists show pairs with more than $1M daily volume and coins listed for at least 10 days. Not every pump keeps going. Open a coin to see its chart, open interest and what whales are doing.
What is behind a pump
- New money. Price and open interest grow together: traders open new positions, and the move has fuel.
- Shorts closing. Price goes up while positions shrink: short sellers buy back to cut losses. Such moves are sharp but often short.
- Whales on one side. If big traders hold most of their money in longs, the move has large accounts behind it. If they are short against the pump, be careful.
Where leverage sits on each coin is on its liquidation heatmap. Whale positions on every pair are in the Smart Money tracker.

Is crypto up or down today?
The market is mixed today. Bitcoin is -0.2%, 46 of 523 pairs are green. The biggest move of the day is OGN, +25.6%. Next to each coin on this page is the main reason behind its move: new money, shorts closing or whales on one side.
Will the pump keep going?
Nobody knows for sure, but the data shows what the move is built on. If new positions keep opening and whales are on the same side, the move has fuel. If it runs only on shorts closing, or the crowd is already all long, the fuel is running out: there is nobody left to buy, and any pullback hits leveraged positions. That is what the line next to each coin shows, and the liquidation heatmap shows where the crowd's leverage sits.
How often is this list updated?
Every minute. Prices come from Binance futures, positions and open interest from data PumpInfo collects around the clock.
What is a pump and dump?
A pump is a sharp price rise in a short time. A pump and dump is when the rise is followed by an equally sharp fall. Today this is most often a coin where most of the supply sits with a small group of holders and little is in free circulation. The spot price is cheap to move, on futures short liquidations speed the rise up, the crowd joins with leverage on the way up, holders sell into that demand, and the price falls, taking the longs with it. The data helps tell a real rise from this: what happens to positions, which side whales are on and where the crowd's leverage sits.
