Volume exceeds depth on Base

In an organic market, a pool trades a fraction of its depth per day. When 24-hour volume reaches twenty times the pool's liquidity, the same capital is being cycled through the pool over and over — the signature of churn bots generating the appearance of an active market.

This rule exists because raw volume is the single most-gamed metric in token screening. A token can buy volume; it cannot buy depth-relative believability. Each record below shows the exact volume-to-liquidity multiple the engine measured.

The churn pattern is easy to recognize once you know it: enormous reported volume against a pool that never seems to grow, and a price that oscillates in a narrow, machine-regular band. These pools are not markets — they are volume printers aimed at ranking algorithms.

Base has become the second major launch venue for retail-facing tokens, combining Ethereum's security assumptions with fees low enough for mass pool creation. That combination attracts both genuine experiments and high-volume factory launches.
