WallStreetBets subreddit-related meme coin WSB plummeted 90% after member zjzWSB sold a large portion of tokens for 334 ETH worth $635k, triggering a mass selloff.
The crypto community is shocked as WSB team rug pulled their own project after fighting against Wall Street Baby for several days.
On-chain sleuth ZachXBT in a tweet on May 4 revealed that zjzWSB dumped nearly 7 billion WSB tokens for 334 ETH ($635k). He reached out to seek clarification on another multisig signer for the 6.86 billion WSB transaction and found that zjzWSB created the transaction and mod OIP executed the sale. It is confirmed that zjzWSB and OIB are different persons.
The tweets from zjzWSB revealed an internal spat between the WallStreetBets mods as he said WSBMod and WSB Ash don’t even belong to the popular subreddit WallStreetBets.
“I’ve had my issues with wsbmod but I see no reason to let bootleg shitcoins use our name unchallenged.”
PeckShieldAlert reported that another wallet that received 46.7 million WSB from zjzWSB also dumped the tokens for 8.312 ETH.
As a result of mass dumping, WSB price fell 90% and the price is currently trading at $0.000066 from a 24-high of $0.000535. WSB members were recently talking about taking over the PEPE coin hype with its meme coin WSB and other tokens claiming to be related to WallStreetBets are rug pulls.
Meanwhile, WSBMod gave zjzWSB a 4-hour deadline to contact him. He claims to file police and FBI report if zjzWSB fails to contact him. He remains hopeful about the return of funds to the treasury.
