[December 5] – HumidiFi, a Solana-based on-chain dark pool DEX, officially announced plans on Tuesday to launch a new token and restart its public sale next Monday. The move addresses a critical issue from its initial sale: centralized bot sniping blocked community users from participating. During the initial launch, large bot networks sent transactions simultaneously via batch wallets, scooping up all tokens instantly. This barred Wetlist members (HumidiFi users/community participants) and JUP stakers from joining the sale. To protect community interests, HumidiFi will airdrop the new token proportionally to eligible Wetlist members and JUP stakers. Addresses linked to sniping in the initial sale will be excluded from the airdrop. The new public sale round will use a newly audited DTF smart contract to prevent similar issues from repeating.

December 5 — Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko took to social media to share his perspectives, stating: “The current high valuations reflect the risks and opportunities across the entire crypto industry. I believe the total crypto market cap will keep rising, and eventually, capital will have to be reallocated based on revenue. This transition will be a long, hard-fought battle for market share—only the blockchains that compete fiercely and emerge victorious will survive.”
