  Shilling refers to the act of promoting or hyping a cryptocurrency with the intention of artificially increasing its value. This can be done through various means such as spreading positive reviews, endorsements, or exaggerated claims about the potential of the cryptocurrency. Shilling can create a false perception of demand and attract more investors, leading to a temporary increase in the value of the cryptocurrency. However, once the shilling is exposed or the hype dies down, the value may plummet, causing losses for those who bought in during the artificially inflated period.

  Shilling can have a significant impact on the value of a cryptocurrency. When a cryptocurrency is shilled, it creates a sense of FOMO (fear of missing out) among potential investors. This can lead to a surge in demand and drive up the price of the cryptocurrency. However, this increase in value is often short-lived as it is not based on genuine market demand or the underlying fundamentals of the cryptocurrency. Once the shilling stops or the hype fades, the price can quickly drop, resulting in losses for those who bought at the peak.
