At the time, projects accepted this arrangement because they stood to gain more from selling tokens on the open market. For the majority of allocations earmarked for early supporters, the vesting terms were altered-shifting from a previously agreed-upon figure to 0% at the TGE
This guy is a scammer, much like James Wynn. Dev of some rugpulls.
Legendary trader dimethyltryptamine.eth, who once spent just 0.125 $ETH ($251) to buy 5.9T $PEPE ($100M at peak), bought another 45.08B $PEPE ($206.5K) after the Binance hacker finished dumping $PEPE.

Hopefully, the ability to withdraw funds will be restored soon.
Binance has begun recovering affected assets for users and continues to work with law enforcement, issuers, blockchain intelligence firms and industry partners to trace, freeze and recover additional funds.
The company has already publicly committed to cover losses through company funds in the prior announcement.
Binance has already reserved over $6.34B of company funds to cover this incident. $5B of these funds are already held in the exact token assets that were impacted. We are completing the purchase of the remaining amount by buying token assets through market channels and OTC channels. We are doing this to match the format of the remaining token assets and address any asset shortfalls. This step can take longer because some tokens may have low liquidity and OTC settlement also takes time. We will share more progress as soon as we can.
These figures do not include frozen or protected assets, which remain subject to ongoing recovery and verification. Currently, $3bn has been frozen, with thanks to our industry partners. We are working with partners and law enforcement to recover the frozen assets.We will continue to use company resources to cover confirmed shortfall and will provide further verified updates as recovery efforts progress. Ultimately, all user funds will be verified publicly through our Proof of Reserves.
We will weather this storm. Thank you for the support.
Elon insulted all the advertisers on X, threatened to fight Buck, and insulted the US president, so he's not afraid of these kinds of Asian threats.
What’s the point of looking up a hacker’s IP address if it’s in North Korea?
A potential slip by the Binance attacker? @MetaMask should preserve whatever web2 logs they can.
The attacker sent 175M USDT to a fresh wallet.
About 2.5 minutes later, that wallet also received 2 ETH. Likely for gas, matching the pattern used with their other attack wallets.
Exactly two minutes after that, it used MetaMask's Gas Station. Despite already having gas.
Three consecutive transactions landed in the same block: an ETH top-up from Gas Station, an unlimited USDT approval for @KyberNetwork's router, and a payment of 127.67 USDT to Gas Station.
The ETH top up exactly matched the combined maximum gas budgets of the Kyber approval and the USDT payment. Down to the wei.
But they already had more than enough ETH to cover both.
My theory: they were using MetaMask Wallet and, while rushing, selected USDT for gas by mistake
MetaMask sometimes defaults like this for convenience. And the same block top-up sequence matches how their implementation works.
To use Gas Station in MetaMask you have to use MetaMask Sentinel. Meaning the transactions go through them, not a regular RPC.
That interaction probablly left offchain records with MetaMask, potentially including IP metadata.
Among all the attacker wallets I checked, this was the only one showing Gas Station usage.

OKX's security system looks pretty good, doesn't it?
The big tech are actually very interested in blockchain-it offers lightning-fast order execution, ultra-low fees, and a host of other advantages, such as zero downtime. A higher valuation is possible.
Unitree down?
🚨 CHINA'S AI BUBBLE IS BURSTING
Almost ¥23.5 TRILLION has been wiped out from the Chinese stock market from its 2026 peak, as it has entered bear market territory.
And AI is taking the biggest hit.
China's STAR50 index has crashed 40% in less than four months, wiping out ¥3.2 Trillion.
Some of the biggest AI stocks have suffered even worse losses:
• Unitree: Down nearly 50%.
• CXMT: Down over 25% in a month.
• Zhongji Innolight and Eoptolink: Down around 60%.
But why is China's AI market collapsing?
1. Extreme valuations: AI stocks have become so expensive that even strong future growth can't justify their prices.
2. Weakening confidence in AI demand: Investors are questioning whether companies can generate enough profits from the massive spending on AI.
3. US restrictions: Fears of new restrictions on Chinese technology entering American data centers are hurting chipmakers and suppliers.
4. Speculative buying: According to Goldman Sachs, AI stocks accounted for 57% of trading activity across the Chinese markets it examined, leaving investors heavily exposed when selling began.
And here's what's really shocking.
Even after the crash, China's STAR50 trades at roughly 100 times earnings, compared with around 30 times for the Nasdaq 100.
This means that the Chinese stock market crash may not be over yet, and there's still more pain ahead.
