When people switch over to another coin that is being pumped, do they actually earn more or they are just chasing the profit while their blocks are being matured and their coins being exchanged?
I guess it depends on how savvy you are, and if you listen to someone else or do your own research.
It's all about the lag, and how fast you react.
IMHO switching to a coin after it is clear that it is being pumped is NEVER profitable, and is like trying to catch a falling knife,
because when everybody and his mother realizes that something is a pump, it's not a pump anymore, that's when it has turned into a DUMP.
