Insider Sells 500M $SHAR, Leading To A 96% Price Crash

An insider has caused chaos in the $SHAR market, selling 500 million $SHAR tokens—equivalent to 50% of the total supply—in a single transaction, netting 19,620 $SOL (approximately $3.38 million).

This massive sale triggered a 96% collapse in the price of $SHAR, leaving many investors reeling from heavy losses.

Before executing this devastating sale, the insider had used 5,710 $SOL ($948,000) across 16 wallets to snipe 665.6 million $SHAR, representing 66.56% of the token’s total supply.

The tokens were then distributed across more than 100 wallets in a sophisticated operation.

Just four hours ago, the insider gathered 500 million $SHAR from 104 of these wallets and sold it all in a single move, making a profit of 13,910 $SOL (about $2.4 million).

Trader Loses 2,481 $SOL In $SHAR Price Crash 

The impact of the insider’s actions was so severe that even experienced traders were not spared. One notable trader, who had previously made 18,539 $SOL ($3.7 million) on the $BOME token, suffered substantial losses on $SHAR. This trader spent 2,952 $SOL to acquire 27 million $SHAR, but after the price crash, was only able to sell for 471 $SOL, resulting in a loss of 2,481 $SOL ($429,000).

Interestingly, this same trader had earlier spent 2,620 $SOL to buy 345.35 million $BOME tokens, which he successfully sold for 21,159 $SOL, netting a profit of 18,539 $SOL ($3.7 million). However, his success with $BOME was overshadowed by the significant losses incurred during the $SHAR crash.

This shocking turn of events highlights the risks and volatility within the cryptocurrency market, especially when insiders manipulate token supplies for profit.
