Typically, the coins drop in value immediately after trading is commenced as volumes remain low to start (it is also likely a result of players sipping fiat with their coins for the first time). He recommends traders help one another by "cross investing" to keep volumes up, and even offers help to "pump your market". As a reward for joining forces, he offers TIPS tips. The pumping terminology is later defended, in that the intention of "pumping" is merely to stimulate volume and not inflate the price.

Mooncoin currently has a market cap of $2.7M, ranking it 23rd. According to its chart on coinmarketcap.com, MOON's value exploded one week ago, rising several-fold to as much as $6M before retreating toward current levels.
