In November, the trader bought 20.46 million PIPPIN tokens for 5,441 SOL ($1.15 million). After that, the price rolled back by 90%, but this did not scare our hero.
Today, when PIPPIN breaks through a $200 million market cap, the trader's token holdings are valued at $3.68 million, and he continues to hold them.
I don't know who this person is, but he clearly pretended that nothing happened when he saw his million shrink by 90%.
Since the HMSTR token listing is coming up on September 26, let's see what's going on with the tokens.
• 131 million users out of 300 million are eligible for the drop. 2.3 million users were blocked for fraud.
• Total supply is 100 billion HMSTR, of which 75% is allocated to the community.
• 60% of tokens will be distributed in the first season. The remaining 15% will go to the second season.
• At the listing, users will receive only 88.75% of their tokens. The remaining 11.25% will be blocked for 10 months.
• On the OKX premarket, the price for an HMSTR token is $0.0087. At this price, MC = $522 million and FDV ~ $870 million.
Does the token have potential? Yes, since the project has gained cosmic momentum.
Is it profitable to farm the second season? Rather no than yes, since there are much fewer tokens allocated, although the number of users will also decrease.
The moral of this story is that you shouldn't have tapped the hamster

Attacks by malware through Telegram increased by 2000% in two months.
The number of reported cases of malware scams targeting crypto investors on Telegram has surpassed that of traditional phishing attacks. This was reported by analysts at Scam Sniffer.
According to their estimates, from November 2024 to January 2025, the frequency of such attacks rose by 2000%. To attract victims, attackers use fake verification bots, invitations to "exclusive" trading or airdrop channels.
During the fake verification process, malicious code is injected into the clipboard, loading malware and giving hackers access to passwords, cryptocurrency wallets, and browser data.
According to Scam Sniffer, this new tactic emerged in response to increased user caution regarding known cryptocurrency scam schemes.

Ripple's XRP price has reached $2.88 for the first time since January 2018. Analysts believe that the main driver of growth was large-scale whale purchases.
Experts noted a "significant accumulation" of the asset by wallets storing from 1 million XRP to 10 million XRP. Since November 12, 2024, the number of coins in whale addresses has increased by 1.43 billion - 37.4% of the total amount of their balances.
Derive protocol head of research Sean Dawson explained that the positive price dynamics are likely due to expectations of the XRP ETF approval in 2025.
According to JPMorgan analysts, inflows into spot exchange-traded funds for SOL and XRP could surpass the figure for Ethereum instruments within six months of launch.
Dawson believes that as Bitcoin is “bought up,” investor interest could shift to altcoins like XRP, fueling further growth.
He also noted that this year, thanks to the new crypto policy of the US government, the legal conflict between Ripple and the SEC, which has been ongoing since late 2020, could finally end.
At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.88. The market cap is $165.92 billion. The coin has risen in price by 25% in a week.

Tom Lee: $90,000 is a good entry point for Bitcoin.
In 2025, digital gold will be one of the most investment-attractive assets, believes Fundstrat co-founder Tom Lee. The analyst noted that the current 15% correction is normal for a volatile asset like Bitcoin. This situation is characteristic of the early stage of the halving cycle - historically, a noticeable downturn has followed each reduction in rewards for miners.
