I built a free crypto volume anomaly scanner — $QUQ has been at 120x vol/mcap for 3 days
The Observation For the past 3 days, my crypto volume anomaly scanner has been flagging $QUQ (Quq) with a 120x volume-to-market-cap ratio . That's not a typo.

The core logic: def get_volume_signals ( limit = 10 ): """ Find tokens with unusual volume vs market cap. """ # Fetch top 250 coins by volume from CoinGecko url = ( f " { COINGECKO_BASE } /coins/markets " " ?vs_currency=usd&order=volume_desc&per_page=250 " " &page=1&sparkline=false " ) data = cached_fetch ( url ) # 5-min cache results =
