How a Hidden Polymarket Wallet Exposed the Ethereum Founder's Secret NFT Dump
Back in 2024, every crypto media outlet reported that Buterin bought 400 Patron NFTs for 32 ETH from @trueo_ (formerly @Truemarketsorg). He’s still holding to this day.
That headline triggered a SOLD OUT mint - a $4M collection. But a recently discovered Polymarket account allegedly linked to @VitalikButerin reveals there’s more to the story - and it might all be fake.

In reality, there were two purchases made by Buterin:
1) From the public wallet - 32 ETH for 400 NFTs.
Media and CT picked it up (source), pumping the hype and leading to a $4M SOLD OUT collection at a mint price of 0.08 ETH per NFT (~$250 at the time). These NFTs are still sitting untouched - creating the illusion of a “hold.”
Purchase date: Nov-19-2024 10:46:49 AM +UTC
TX - https://t.co/c7gpZg6FEu
2) From an anonymous wallet - 64 ETH for 800 NFTs.
Of those, 101 remain unsold while 699 were sold off within 2–3 months at 0.16–0.23 ETH per NFT - roughly 2–3x the mint price (around 110–120 ETH total).
TX - https://t.co/7M6uz90h5u
Purchase date: Nov-19-2024 04:53:13 AM +UTC - about 6 hours before the public wallet buy.
So the “buy and hold” narrative tied to one of crypto’s most respected figures might actually have been a setup to lure investors into becoming exit liquidity for True Markets (later rebranded as Trueo).
Today, these NFTs are worth around 0.0032 ETH - roughly $6 each.
Could it really be just coincidence that the signer wallet of the Polymarket account believed to belong to @VitalikButerin is directly connected to a wallet that took part in the same PATRON NFT sale as his public address?

>Connected to a @Polymarket account suspected to be Vitalik Buterin’s
>The anonymous wallet bought 6 hours earlier.
>Matching amounts - 32/64 ETH, 400/800 NFTs.
> Public wallet = hold. Anonymous wallet = sold for 2–3x profit.
I don’t buy that kind of coincidence. This feels like a paid promo at best - or “helping friends” launch a project where the crypto community once again becomes the exit liquidity.
And if the Polymarket account really belongs to Buterin, it’s sad to think that even early crypto pioneers who preach decentralization might be tied to stuff like this.

Lighter Airdrop and TGE Coming Within the Next 3 Weeks - Insider Bet Proof on Polymarket
@Lighter_xyz's airdrop and TGE are coming in the next 3 weeks. The proof? An insider team member's bet on @Polymarket.
I found 2 interesting accounts on Polymarket that belong to the same person.
- Account 1: https://t.co/LUdiXKqhAR
- Account 2: https://t.co/s2Mb9y7lcc
Combined, they've placed approximately $125,000 on various FDV outcomes with "YES" results in this market:
Market Link: https://t.co/AGuj97zpTV
The key detail about this market: it will automatically resolve to "No" if Lighter doesn't conduct its TGE by December 31st, 2025.
Why This Is 100% Insider?
I verified the wallets that funded these Polymarket accounts and identified the insider's primary wallet: 0x64Afae722A05b1d28e831B2C20A8EBFEa9dA6352.
Seven months ago, there was a $1.7M deposit to Lighter from this wallet. But this doesn't prove anything significant, so I dug deeper.
I traced a connected wallet linked to the insider's primary address: 0x8098343F3456D97be3843a128c5d773e765433B8
The first deposit to Lighter from this wallet was made on January 21st, even though Lighter's invite-only access didn't open until January 24th, 2025.
Only @Lighter_xyz team members or people extremely close to them could have made a deposit before January 24th.
The Connection: Both 0x64A and 0x809 use the same @coinbase deposit address: 0xb903f16771883bF694f307b28EBE70407A817Ee9
This strongly suggests they belong to the same person.
Additionally, I found connections to other wallets through an another exchange deposit address - this time on @binance: 0x6f3f94ae0A67535233eDf0Ebc23E021B23D705b3
0x809 and 0xA48d879ab2B1dc99E02071BbE1C5938117B9B4d2 and 0x4DFe2c38ae15972716ac2F7219bbD7e4B69e9e3F
These two addresses interacted with Lighter's smart contracts back in 2023!
During that period, only the team had access to the exchange.
This 100% confirms that the person placing bets on Polymarket is either a Lighter team member or someone extremely close to the team = Insider.
This means Lighter's TGE and airdrop will definitely happen in December 2025, and there's solid money to be made on this Polymarket opportunity.

It feels like @townsapp has the same vibes as @solayer_labs
Promises to lure people in, then a complete pivot -unfortunately, this is becoming the norm in WEB3.
Solayer also manipulated with expectations the same way as Towns doing it now.
Maybe Towns are distributing airdrop to team wallets too? Any thoughts?
