Bob doesn't pick coins. He checks them. These are the same checks Plumb's scanner runs, written so anyone can do them in about two minutes. Measured, not promoted.
Average price change after we logged them, by how old the coin was when we saw it. The younger the coin, the worse it went.
Small sample. Most promoted tokens in the log fell hard after promotion, many by 90% or more. Older is not "safe", it's just less bad on average.
No single check is enough. Plumb's own wash-trading flag didn't predict outcomes by itself, so we stack them.
Every case file is a coin that already played out. No tickers, no dev names, no wallets. The pattern is the lesson.
