On December 2, former U.S. President Donald Trump pardoned Juan Orlando Hernández (JOH)—the ex-president of Honduras who was serving a sentence in New York for cocaine smuggling—per monitoring from PolyBeats (Dec. 5 update). Three hours ago, FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF)—arrested in 2022 and once JOH’s cellmate—posted on X that he spent substantial time helping JOH prepare for trial: reviewing evidence and drafting legal documents. SBF described JOH as “the most innocent prisoner I’ve ever seen, including myself.” Speculation swirls that SBF’s high-profile post may aim to highlight his behind-the-scenes role in JOH’s release, signal support for Trump’s pardon policy, and lay groundwork for his own potential pardon or commutation. Reports note SBF’s family has openly lobbied Trump and arranged meetings with his allies since early 2025. Yet on prediction market Polymarket, the probability of “Will Trump pardon SBF in 2025?” remains largely unchanged at an extremely low ~2%

[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.
