Insider Timing? 3 Wallets Score $666K on “Base is for everyone” Before Official Tweet
Suspiciously well-timed trades are raising questions across the chain.
Just before the official “Base is for everyone” post from @base, three wallets scooped up massive amounts of the token—only to dump them shortly after, walking away with a combined profit of ~$666K. Here's how it went down:
Wallet 0x0992 spent 1.5 ETH ($2,370) to buy 256.39M tokens, then sold everything for 108 ETH ($170.4K). Profit: $168K

Wallet: 0xBD3183A293b3bEA81479bE052491207F1A328ADF
This trio cashed out minutes after the Base tweet went live—leaving many wondering: was this just lucky timing, or something deeper?
