# About Pump

## **Why is the** transaction of **PUMP?**

***

Trades on **Pump** and **Pumpswap** are now executed with a fixed amount. The transaction amount is no longer affected by slippage, meaning Pump-related trades will not fluctuate due to slippage.

## **Can sniping be achieved by following the PUMP DEV address?**

***

 If it is a pump dev, you can also follow his address to snipe. PumpDev's MINT and Buy are usually in the same transaction, and the time difference is not big. It is mainly because the price of Token fluctuates greatly in the early stage of sniping, the competition is fierce, and there may be tax factors, so the requirements for slippage and gas are relatively high.
