Hilarious... The tai lopez nft IMMEDIATELY siphons out the funds into their teams wallet when you mint...
Just so they can scam your eth just a little bit faster...
The viral txn of an MEV bot "selling 2.4 $APE for 946 ETH"
A few people asked me how this happened. In short, it didnt happen.
Seems like a lot of people that got hooked on NFTs weren't around during DeFi Summer in 2020 and arent familiar with MEV bots. Let me try to explain :)
Gonna end the $APE content with 1 final thread. Let's dive into how this absolute fucking chad borrowed 5 bored apes, claimed $APE for all of them, returned the apes, and subsequently netted ~600k.
A story of how a bot looked for value where no one else did.

After 3.5 years at Google, I just got laid off. During my time there, I added the extensions pin button. From a metrics point of view, this has been one of the most clicked buttons on any Google app.

Ohm devs cooked something called Baseline that supposedly is infinite liquidity, no liquidation leverage, and up-only.
FYI I bought tokens but it's genuinely an interesting mechanism - NFA, it might go down + I have some improvements I would make.
Here's how it works:
Abstract has just hit $200M of TVL.
No liquidity mining, no bought TVL, no backdoor deals, just fully organic growth.
Who knew Penguins could fly and L2s could build a real organic ecosystem?
Just looked at the @WZRDSxyz contract and yep, they can definitely arbitrarily burn your NFT. It doesn't matter whether it's listed for sale or not, they can burn it (without paying you if it's listed).
