I’ve definitely seen projects catch a real spike once they hit the DEXTools “trending” page. Plenty of active traders keep that tab open throughout the day to spot new volume surges, so the second you pop up there you’ll often get a couple hundred extra wallet checks in the first hour alone.
The traffic isn’t massive like CoinGecko or CoinMarketCap—it’s more of a niche, highly engaged crowd—but that can be exactly what you want if you’re chasing genuine DEX liquidity. You’ll get users who are actually ready to buy and sell, not just window-shopping charts.
