[ SLANG ][ CRYPTO ][ VERB ]
Grinding out every available reward, airdrop point, or yield opportunity from a protocol and then immediately selling off the entire earned position the moment it becomes liquid, rather than holding any of it long-term.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"Everyone farming this airdrop is planning to farm and dump the second it's tradable, nobody's actually sticking around."
LORE & ORIGIN
Combines existing 'farming' (grinding rewards) with the established 'pump and dump' framing, naming this specific two-step pattern of extracting value from a system and then exiting all at once.
