Platform tokens being pumped basically represent that a wave of explosive growth is about to come. Exchanges are the institutions that have the most comprehensive grasp of funds and information in this market. At this time, being willing to spend real money to pump their own platform tokens surely means they know a major market trend is coming. They first pump the platform tokens, and when the market rises and liquidity is sufficient later, it makes it easier to sell. Platform tokens are similar to brokerage stocks in the stock market; before a wave of market trends starts, brokerage stocks are always pumped first.
