Been holding my 888k solana:2zMMhcVQEXDtdE6vsFS7S7D5oUodfJHE8vd1gnBouauv for ~2.5 years in order to boost my @AbstractChain XP.
Needless to say, this resulted in a direct $30.000 loss.
This combined with the 'XP farming' gives a total pnl of about -$50.000
Thanks for not not launching that ABS TGE at 2b - 3b Luca!
fun fact: On the 28,005.6 ETH from Binance 16 arriving 24 seconds after the main sweep could be the attacker, but it could also be Binance’s automated hot-wallet top-up logic reacting to Binance 14 suddenly showing a zero balance.
ok safe to say binance is pwned
The biggest assets were approximately:
• 1.615B USDT
• 62.6M RLUSD
• 29,934 wBETH
• 11,372 XAUt
• 6.19M UNI
• 198.4M ENA
• 7.175T PEPE
• 27.8M USD1
• 2.26M LINK
• 127,853 AAVE
about $2.5B at the explorer’s prices.
1. The attacker deployed a delegate contract, 0x63e842b0...73e9c6fAe, from the relayer at 15:59 UTC.
2. About four hours later, the relayer submitted an EIP-7702 authorization transaction
That installed the malicious 7702 delegate code on Binance 14.
3. The relayer then made a call to Binance 14, executing the delegate code, and transferring Binance 14’s ETH and token balances.
4. The calldata is labeled sweep(address, address[]). The second argument is a list of recognizable token-contract addresses plus the zero-address (eth).
5. The same relayer later used the same delegate to move 780M USDC from Binance Hot Wallet 34 into the same pool
• The relayer 0x7C... was funded by three Tornado Cash 0.1 ETH withdrawals over the prior two days.
• The same pool also received 28,005.6 ETH from Binance 16 24 seconds after the main sweep.
• The pool then forwarded 195,460 ETH to a fresh, unlabeled EOA
• That EOA has only one transaction and currently holds the 195,460 ETH.
What's a bit unclear is why the relayer was needed in the first place. If they had the private keys to the Binance wallets, they could have just sent the assets out in an atomic bundle without needing a relayer at all.
So it seems likely that they didn't have the private keys and instead just had the 7702 auth signatures, which must have been phished somehow.
I think we can go ahead and assume DPRK.
Used @futurepost as tipped by @allodev to clean up my X followers/inactives.
Really happy with the results!
Finally an easy tool to see inactive accounts and clean up my lists.

Ah thanks for the reminder to unfollow @MagicEden
What a shit show they have become. Backstabbing BTC ordinal was enough reason but now they promote cheap gambling sites.
How low can they go
You can say what you want about @beaniemaxi but he's spot on here:
Without Abstract and their thousands of active farmers, PENGU would have never had its high valuation.
Don't forget, holding PENGU gave... XP multipliers!
So ye the team sold billions of PENGU and profited heavily of it. They pumped PENGU's value with Abstract tge promises.

Imagine a casino where nearly 100% of customers lose money.
Now imagine that instead of acknowledging the odds are stacked against its customers, the casino markets itself as a revolutionary platform for creating wealth.
Would you celebrate that business? Would you praise its success? Would you encourage more people to participate?
Or would you start asking why an ecosystem continues to funnel billions of dollars into a machine that leaves almost everyone poorer?
That’s my fundamental issue with @Pumpfun .
A platform’s success should not be measured solely by how much revenue it extracts from its users. At some point, we need to ask how much value it actually creates for them.
When the house keeps winning and virtually everyone else keeps losing, that’s not financial innovation.

Mass extraction right here.
@Pumpfun and their partners in crime have taken out almost a billion. That's a billion that's never coming back.

Look at the timeline
No one outside of paid off pump shills wants these celeb coins or for kols to become 'celebs' and extract even more from the plebs
Every coin has pumpdex fees, pumpswap, terminal or bot fees, creator rewards, cashback, call out rewards, etc
It is endless extraction, taking money out of coins and giving it to deployers, bundlers and kols, making the slice of the pie plebs have access to ever smaller
But it's the plebs that make this space - without them - there's nothing to extract
But you are bleeding us dry
Meanwhile yourself and others have taken huge paid deals from pump, when instead you have the platform to lead us to a better way if you wanted to
Robinhood took marketshare from pump and sol and the market was great, now the market share has gone back to pump and we are all getting farmed to zero again
This is because pump only cares about spending money to generate fees through their ecosystem. They don't care about coins that people hold because they don't make anything from it. They need pnds for their revenue. With each pnd deploy a huge amount is extracted from the trenches, never to be seen again. This is not sustainable. And it's why it's rare to see coins on pump go to a high mc. It's a race to the bottom
Where is the airdrop? Will you start advocating for it again? Or do the plebs have to give it up so 'celeb' kols can get paid?

Go for 2× Online Boxes if you want the highest potential returns. Higher-tier boxes deliver significantly more base USDC value per Hard Core spent ($1.22 per 10k cores vs $1.00 in lower tiers) alongside top-tier rewards.
Leftover Cores: Spend your remaining 62,837 cores on 1× Stirring Box (32,000) and 3× Dormant Boxes (30,000) to maximize usage, leaving only 837 cores unused.
Let's see what's in my boxes:

Looking back on my 17.5 year anniversary!
I've made many important decisions in my life, but as @naval
Says:
_*Find a relationship where you, naturally being you, makes the other person happy. And the other person, naturally being the other person, makes you happy*_.
Thats what matters most.
This shows how uninformered (or delusional) people are these days. Yes I'm talking to you @Tyler_Did_It
Airdrops are not payed out by the company that's doing a TGE. In other words, these PENGU tokens where NOT bought. They are GENERATED from thin air.
The PENGU value (and all airdrops) comes from five primary sources:
-Centralized exchanges (usually 50% - 55%)
-Speculators and open-market buyers (20% - 25%)
-Liquidity providers / market makers (10% - 15%)
-VC/early investors backing (5%)
-The project’s own capital (0% - 1%)
$PENGU was listed on Tier-1 exchanges (like Binance) on day one.
Pudgy Penguins had massive brand hype leading into the launch. Thousands of traders who did not qualify for the airdrop wanted to buy $PENGU at launch.
THEY PAYED FOR YOUR AIRDROP. NOT LUCA.
Tyler defends Pudgy Penguins founder Luca Netz against criticism pointing out he gave Pudgy Penguins holders $80,000 each in one of the biggest NFT airdrops in history
“Luca gave everyone $80,000 for holding a Pudgy Penguin NFT. It was the second biggest airdrop in NFT history behind Bored Apes and ApeCoin”
“All you had to do was hold a Pudgy Penguin. You got $80,000 for it. So I don't know how any holder can be upset at Luca in any way”
“Yes they went off and did Abstract and I think they gave it their best go. Maybe you could argue they could have perhaps failed faster. I don't know. That's a hard thing to do”
“I’m sure they didn't want to fail. It's a tough game and also there was a lot of things that shifted”
“A lot of people thought consumer was the way to go and then it actually turned out it was institutions. That's the only chains that have made it”
“Now they're catching all the backlash, all the dunking, even though he kind of stood up and ran one of the most successful NFT projects of all time”
