The uniqueness you speak of can be a poison as well as a catalyst for the path of failure and fondness for betting in crypto, know that new listings will get more pumps as this is good news but the exception can turn this opportunity into a waterfall of death, pouring water down to drown the innocent, I don't know how many successful badges you've earned from this strategy but I bet it's very few up to now. Hundred times profit is the dream number here but it takes a long time to trade off, once not following a solid step by step, crying in the dark is the result
Back in the day we did this with the coins we believed Binance would list (and before that it was bittrex and poloniex and deceased cryptsy). So, it isn't really a brand new idea, it is something that people have done for years. Nowadays you could get whitelisted on pancakeswap and it still increases your value, which means that people could be looking for thousands of coins to actually invest into something proper.
I do not know how long this would take, and I do not know if you would be right most of the time, but if you could make 100x even once, that means you could try 100 times and fail 99 times and be right just once and pay for it. This is why people do it, there is a good chance that the wrong ones would be paid for by the right ones. You could be right once every 10-20 times and that means we are talking about a huge profit in the long run, but you have to be patient and not attack every single coin.
