[ SLANG ][ CRYPTO ][ MEME COIN ]
The self-reinforcing mechanism by which a meme asset's own price swings generate the attention and speculation that drives further, larger price swings, named as the underlying dynamic itself rather than any one specific spiral event it produces.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"That's textbook reflexive volatility, the pump itself is what's pulling in the next wave of buyers."
LORE & ORIGIN
Named directly within crypto trading discourse borrowing 'reflexivity' from financial theory, framing the mechanism as a named, generalizable dynamic distinct from a description of any single volatility spiral it causes.
