Insider Dump? “Base is for Everyone” Token Rugs in 5 Minutes

A token created (and shilled) on the official page of Base just rugged in 5 minutes.
Base is for everyone. Especially if you are an insider and can profit 200k.
Let's break down what happened and who sold 👇
1/ The dump was triggered by an address that bought around 1.5 ETH worth of the token just one minute before the official tweet from the Base account.
Then it started selling nonstop.
2/ I used @nansen_ai’s Candlestick Inspector to track down the origin of the dump.

3/ Tracking the Money
The top gainer has already transferred a portion of the profit to an address with the domain name: bandemic.base.eth.
Address: 0x099246ca997acf47ada682c9c60f9ed0954ad960
The author believes ETH has bottomed in the $1,500–$2,000 range, mirroring their earlier successful BTC bottom call. With BTC dominance peaking, DXY weakening, and sentiment low, ETH is seen as undervalued late in the cycle. The setup suggests ETH could reclaim $4,000, offering a strong risk-adjusted opportunity.

A hacker stole 3,520 BTC (~$330M) from an OG Bitcoin holder and rapidly swapped it for Monero (XMR), triggering a 50% price surge. The thief used KuCoin and MEXC to make hundreds of small, high-fee swaps. Experts believe the victim lacked proper security, highlighting risks for legacy crypto holders.

Bitcoins price has once again intersected with the average miner cost of production—a historically reliable indicator of a market bottom. Each past intersection has preceded major price rallies. With current breakeven costs near $60K, analysts expect a significant move up before the end of Q2.

This week looks interesting with earnings reports from Meta, Amazon, and Apple, alongside crucial PCE inflation and labor market data. The trader plans to de-risk their swing long trade from $77k by taking profits in the current range. Key liquidity levels to watch are $96.8k (main) and $90k (important). The outlook suggests the potential for a third leg up toward $97k, followed by a possible retest of the 4H50EMA as support.

Strategy is reshaping Bitcoins scarcity with massive acquisitions, effectively halving Bitcoin supply through balance sheet firepower. By consistently absorbing up to 50% of newly mined BTC, theyre artificially creating a halving, driving Bitcoin’s scarcity ahead of schedule. This will set the global cost of Bitcoin, where access will require paying premiums, and borrowing will be a luxury for the wealthy or nations. Strategy is positioning itself as the dominant financial superpower in the Bitcoin space.

The next Altseason may not come from the U.S. but from Japan. While the FED cant inject liquidity, Japans looming QE program could be the catalyst for a crypto rally. After rising bond yields and a strengthening Yen, Japan may devalue its currency and pump liquidity into the market, benefiting crypto assets. With China already injecting liquidity, Japans move will likely drive altcoins higher, just as it did in 2008.
