    So does this count as some kind of fraud or insider trading that can be prosecuted by, say, the SEC or CFTC?

      Sure does! But nothing will happen, you’re essentially a 100% safe running pump and dump schemes as long as you only rip off poor people.

      Check out Coffeezilla’s yt channel, there’s loads of obvious fraudsters out there, nothing ever happens to them.
