News linked to both this project and an event.
According to blockchain data analytics platform Bubblemaps, after BitMEX announced its closure, the price of its platform token BMEX dropped significantly, falling approximately 95% from its previous levels. However, based on the tokenomics publicly disclosed by BitMEX, about 75% of the total BMEX supply was originally planned for employee incentives, ecosystem development, and long-term reserves, but these tokens were never distributed on-chain. Data shows that approximately 92% of the BMEX supply was locked in vesting contracts in 2021, with the remaining 8% distributed at the token launch, including: 5% for airdrops and 3% for product and liquidity support.On November 2, 2022, the product and liquidity address claimed approximately 63.75 million BMEX, while addresses designated for employee incentives, ecosystem growth, and long-term reserves did not claim any tokens. Bubblemaps stated that this does not necessarily indicate a problem, as the project may have subsequently adjusted its tokenomics, contracts, or distribution plans, which were not reflected on-chain.
according to Bubblemaps monitoring, a cluster of addresses purchased 2.7% of the ANSEM supply shortly after its launch through 4 associated wallets. They subsequently sold all holdings on June 19, making a profit of approximately $2,000. At current prices, this position would be worth around $4.7 million.
blockchain analytics platform Bubblemaps released an investigation report on the Solana Meme token LIBRA. On February 14, 2025, after Argentine President Javier Milei publicly supported the launch of LIBRA, the token's market cap briefly reached approximately $4 billion in less than two days before rapidly crashing, resulting in investor losses exceeding $250 million. The incident has been dubbed "Cryptogate."Bubblemaps stated that multiple abnormal signals emerged within the first hour of LIBRA's launch:82% of the token supply was concentrated in a single wallet cluster, a stark deviation from typical Meme token issuance patterns;No tokenomics information was provided, with no details on lock-ups, fund allocation, or roadmap disclosed;Abnormally high liquidity pool fees were generated, with over $25 million in fees accumulating within the first hour of trading, far exceeding normal retail trading levels.The investigation revealed that the deployer did not directly dump $LIBRA on the open market. Instead, they added a one-sided liquidity pool containing only $LIBRA on Meteora while simultaneously withdrawing USDC and SOL from the original pool, enabling low-slippage fund transfers. Bubblemaps noted that, by the time the public warning was issued, the team had already extracted approximately $87 million in assets through this mechanism. Subsequently, Bubblemaps discovered a financial link between LIBRA and another controversial token, $MELANIA. Through on-chain evidence such as cross-chain transfers and overlapping exchange deposit addresses, analytic firms suggest both projects may be operated by the same team, which has been traced back to Kelsier Ventures and its head, Hayden Davis.The report indicates that this team has subsequently been linked to multiple Meme token projects, including $HOOD, $TRUST, $KACY, and $VIBES. Their common pattern includes: holding a large concentration of tokens during the deployment phase, using multiple wallets to front-run purchases, rapidly inflating market cap, and then exiting to cash out.Bubblemaps stated that the uniqueness of the LIBRA incident lies not in its technical methods, but in securing the public endorsement of Javier Milei, which amplified a routine Meme token operation into a globally watched event. The firm believes that indicators such as wallet cluster analysis, supply concentration, and on-chain fund flows had already flashed risk signals early on, and it will continue to monitor related address activity in the future.
that, according to Bubblemaps, the FIFA-related token WCUP, which launched yesterday, surged to a market cap of approximately $50 million. Over 30 new wallets snapped up 95% of its supply immediately at the opening. These wallets were funded by multiple centralized exchanges within the half-hour before the launch, had no prior on-chain history, and subsequently distributed the tokens to over 2,500 new addresses via Uniswap Router.Bubblemaps noted that the project's documentation only vaguely mentions a presale and partner allocations, with no on-chain evidence directly linking to the team. However, this level of concentration, combined with undisclosed paid promotion arrangements with KOLs, poses a significant risk.
on-chain data platform Bubblemaps has released an analysis of the LAB token on-chain data on X platform. Only 313 participants joined the presale on the Legion platform, with a total initial investment of approximately $1.428 million. The current market value of these presale holdings has surged to $977 million, with investors collectively enjoying an unrealized gain approaching $1 billion. Due to unlock restrictions, the full lock-up period for investors' shares extends to 2027, making it difficult to liquidate funds. The first batch of token unlocks will occur on July 14. Bubblemaps warns that the economic model featuring highly concentrated LAB holdings combined with long-term lock-up poses significant liquidity risks. There is widespread market concern that after subsequent rounds of unlocks, large-scale profit-taking by major holders could put downward pressure on the market.
On X, on-chain analytics platform Bubblemaps stated that the token MYSTERY may have exhibited highly centralized control during its initial launch phase, describing it as a “textbook scam.” Bubblemaps disclosed data showing that approximately 90 newly created wallets seized roughly 90% of the token’s supply at launch and have since continuously dumped their holdings—generating over $100,000 in proceeds so far, while still retaining about 40% of the total supply. Additionally, the token’s launch featured clear “bundled distribution” and centralized control characteristics, and some KOLs promoting MYSTERY were reportedly paid to do so.
blockchain analytics platform Bubblemaps has released the latest data on X platform, showing that the MEGA airdrop covered a total of 8,360 wallet addresses. The distribution is as follows:50% of wallets still hold all of their airdropped tokens40% have sold all10% have partially reduced their holdingsThe current fully diluted valuation (FDV) of MEGA is approximately $1.7 billion.
