What You’ll Learn:
- The basics of wash trading: how the same entity buys and sells to create fake volume.
- How researchers use methods like trade roundness and Benford’s Law to expose manipulation.
- Why volatile markets and media hype fuel wash trading in Bitcoin, Ethereum, and beyond.
- Surprising ways this concept extends beyond crypto into social media, online reviews, and even historical stock markets.
Why It Matters:
