Meme coin PEPE soared 1,000 times in just 4 days, and some users started from scratch. Crypto KOL An Ape's Prologue found some wallets that managed to earn over $9 million at a total cost of 0.61 ETH (~$1210) — a 7500x return. However, the timing of the purchase is odd:

While analyzing the distribution of transactions on Uniswap V2, some unusual activity was discovered. Within minutes of the token starting trading, a group of newly funded wallets bought PEPE and are still holding them. Together they control nearly 10% of the total supply

Third, an initial fund comes from the ByBit funding address, and then distributes about 0.17 ETH among the four wallets, buying a total of about 6.2 trillion tokens, and currently making a profit of $2.2 million.

This behavior raised questions about whether these wallets belonged to insiders or the development team, because not only did they buy at perfect timing, but they still held a considerable amount of tokens in the wallets after a massive 1,000-fold increase.
It’s worth noting that even if they sold 10% of their token holdings, it would be enough to send the token plummeting due to the poor liquidity available on-chain. It is therefore crucial for current holders to monitor the activity of these whales.
