The annual absurd news in the crypto circle is back (2022 was too tragic), and this year still has many moments that make everyone stand up. I wish everyone a Happy New Year and continued wealth in 2025.

Renzo statistics civil servant graduation.

On April 23, the re-staking project Renzo announced the airdrop details. In the first version of the announcement released by Renzo, its token allocation pie chart was as follows, which could be considered a statistics textbook. The 2.5% allocations for Binance Launchpool and liquidity looked almost indistinguishable from 20%, while the bottom 'half' was 62%. The community bluntly stated this was 'chart crime, no different from falsifying token economics.'

A well-known project with the surname S has launched an epic K-line.

A well-known project with the surname S officially opened after the pre-trading on Binance ended, and it was historically rare to be unable to tell whether the K-line was rising or falling.

The project party online hired 4 developers, who are actually the same North Korean hacker.

On March 27, the Blast ecosystem project Munchables was hacked for $62.5 million. According to on-chain detective ZachXBT’s investigation, it was because one of their developers was a North Korean hacker, and all four different developers hired by the Munchables team had connections with the attacker, likely being the same person. They recommended each other for the job and regularly transferred payments to the same two deposit addresses on trading platforms, with the wallets of the 'four' showing mutual transfer behavior.

Based on annual earnings, the North Korean hacker should make more than many listed companies.

A well-known cross-chain project with the surname L has asked 'witches' to turn themselves in, a historical first.

On May 4, a well-known cross-chain project with the surname L announced that users identified as witches could turn themselves in, and by submitting their witch addresses, they could receive 15% of the originally allocated amount. If they did not turn themselves in and were discovered, all allocations would be canceled.

But that's not all, the project party stated that reporters need to provide at least 20 addresses clearly involved in witch operations, and the reward will be prioritized for the first user to submit successfully. Later, they further updated the reporting mechanism, introducing a margin system.

This is truly unprecedented.

During a gathering, cryptocurrency custody company Copper apologized to attendees for serving naked sushi.

A person close to Copper said the models were one male and one female, 'dressed in swimsuits', and added that it was 'very dazzling...'.

It's clear that the project party has made a lot of money this year.

Slerf issued tokens and accidentally burned the tokens and LP due to his own mistake, leading the entire network to learn 'Oh Fuck.'

On March 18, Slerf project founder @Slerfsol posted on platform X that he accidentally destroyed the LP and the reserved airdrop tokens due to an operational mistake, and the minting rights have been revoked. He felt powerless and even cried sincerely in Space.

I thought the Meme project SLERF, which raised over 50,000 SOL, would perish, but unexpectedly, this act allowed SLERF to break the previous record of BOME, which took 9 hours to reach a market cap of over 100 million, in just 30 minutes, with SLERF’s market cap reaching over 100 million, jumping to become the new king of memes. As a result, any meme that encounters a burn pool will be associated with the Slerf narrative for community CX.

Gave himself a boost for everyone.

The previous Dev on Pump.Fun soaked himself in isopropyl alcohol to boost meme market value and live-streamed fireworks aimed at himself, attempting to create hype for his meme coin. The token price skyrocketed by 2000% within hours, reaching a market cap of $2 million. However, due to a lack of necessary fire safety measures, he was instantly engulfed in flames, suffered third-degree burns, and was hospitalized, unable to sell the tokens. After recovery, he found he couldn't use his hands normally, and even facial recognition on his phone couldn't recognize him. Later, this Dev left the project, and the last thing that happened was he didn't sell the tokens in time.

Easter egg session: Selling at a loss always earns.

On March 8, WIF developers sold WIF worth $29,000 (511 SOL) within 2 days of WIF's opening, and the current value of this WIF is $693 million.

On September 28, a trader spent 196 SUI ($368) to purchase 2.53 billion HIPPO, and within less than a day, the user sold all HIPPO for $7,500, which was worth over $30 million a week later.

On November 17, a trader spent 19.8 SOL ($3,000) to buy 59 million FARTCOIN, but later sold it for 7.16 SOL ($1,100), incurring a loss of $1,900. Now these FARTCOIN are worth over $18.42 million.
