Blockchain forensic firm Bubblemaps<\/strong> has uncovered a massive coordinated effort during the launch of the Solana-based AI token Ava (AVA)<\/strong>. According to their findings, a cluster of 23 wallets\u2014directly linked to the token’s deployer\u2014managed to “snipe” and consolidate approximately 40% of the total supply<\/strong> at the very start of trading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Anatomy of a Coordinated Launch<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Bubblemaps identified a “sybil cluster” of wallets that exhibited highly suspicious and synchronized behavior:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Identical Funding Sources:<\/strong> All 23 wallets were funded via Bitget and Binance within an extremely narrow time window.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Coordinated Logistics:<\/strong> The wallets received similar amounts of SOL and showed zero prior on-chain activity before the launch.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Instant Acquisition:<\/strong> They used automated bots (snipers) to buy up the supply immediately upon release, effectively locking out the general public from obtaining tokens at low prices.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Although the token launched on Pump.fun<\/strong>\u2014a platform designed to promote fair, decentralized debuts\u2014the data suggests that a single entity effectively gained control over nearly half the market from day one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    A Massive 96% Collapse<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    This high concentration of supply often serves as a red flag for investors, as it allows insiders to manipulate the market or stage massive sell-offs (often referred to as “rug pulls”).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The financial impact has been severe:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Peak Valuation:<\/strong> In January 2025, AVA reached a fully diluted valuation of $300 million<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Price Crash:<\/strong> After hitting an all-time high of $0.33<\/strong> on January 15, 2025, the token\u2019s value plummeted.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Current Status:<\/strong> As of late 2025, the token is trading over 96% below its peak<\/strong>, leaving many retail investors with significant losses.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      About the Project: Holoworld AI<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Ava was introduced as the flagship AI agent (or “HOLO AI intern”) for Holoworld AI<\/strong>, a decentralized launchpad where users can create and monetize agentic AI applications. Despite Holoworld\u2019s claims of having over 1 million users and 700,000 AI creations, the AVA token’s launch transparency has become a major point of contention within the Solana ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The discovery was made possible through Bubblemaps\u2019 “Time Travel”<\/strong> feature, which allows researchers to reconstruct the historical distribution of tokens to expose insider manipulation that often remains hidden for months.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
