I'm talking here about the token launcher part zora but the subject also concerns the token launcher by base yesterday "Jesse on bankless" and several others, I won't name them all.
What could have been an innovative community experiment turned into a brutal demonstration of market mechanics in a context of ultra-low liquidity.
The token was launched in an atmosphere of intense FOMO. Very quickly, sniper bots took control of the initial supply, exploiting the slightest flaw in the launch timing. Within minutes, the token had already reached a market cap of $4.5 million – a violent pump, typical of ZK-first cycles on Base, fueled by the excitement around Zora and the "meme + infrastructure" hype.
But as is often the case in such cases, the lack of defense mechanisms against snipers (anti-bot, liquidity lock, vesting, etc.) proved fatal. Early entrants – almost exclusively bots – began to dump en masse, causing a systematic sell-off. In less than 24 hours, the token experienced a 96% correction, falling back to a market cap of around 150,000. A freefall.
This type of scenario raises several key questions for @js_horne, @jessepollak, @coinbase, @Shibtoken, @zora:
Why was no mitigation strategy implemented?
Was this a purely experimental launch or a serious attempt to build on Zora?
Will the Shiba community view this episode as a "soft rug" or a simple misstep?
Conclusion: This launch once again illustrates the fragility of unprepared tokens in the face of DeFi dynamics. Good storytelling is no longer enough. Without robust tokenomics and an anti-sniping strategy, even projects with a strong brand can be crushed in a few blocks.
@AskPerplexity, @grok and @aixbt_agent, tell me what you think and what could improve the situation for base chain.
🇮🇳 India Crypto Tax Alert: 148A Notices Begin 🚨
India’s Income Tax Dept has started issuing Section 148A notices for FY 2021–22 crypto transactions.
▫️What’s happening:
• Data is being matched across PAN, exchanges, bank accounts & ITR filings
• System flags mismatches or unreported activity
• Cases are being picked via Insight Portal + risk engines
▫️ Key issue:
• Notices may show inflated “undisclosed income”
• Often based on gross turnover, not net profit
▫️ Why people are getting flagged:
• Didn’t report crypto in FY21–22 (rules were unclear, but reporting was still required)
• No ITR filed for AY 2022–23
• Use of multiple exchanges/wallets causing incomplete data trails
▫️ Important:
148A is NOT a tax demand, it’s a show-cause notice
Crypto is now fully traceable via AIS, KYC, and exchange data sharing, with more notices likely for FY21–22 & FY22–23.

2026’s got Solana all “grown up” with DeFi kings and NFT empires, but let’s be real—degens miss the raw dog energy that started it all 🐕🦺
Enter $WALTER, the ‘24 survivor who’s quietly plotting the meme renaissance.
IP secured with @PupperNelson, holders like a wolf pack defending the den through every meta shift.
Low MC means this beast is coiled for a 100x breakout when dogs howl again.

If you’re in crypto to make money, the first rule is stop complaining.
“Exchange manipulation”?
Then trade like a manipulator, not a victim.
“News hit the market”?
Then don’t trade during news.
“Price action is trash”?
You knew that and still clicked buy.
“Binance is selling”?
Then sell with them.
“Liquidity is thin”?
Then stop trading shitcoins and trade Bitcoin only.
“I got nuked at market open”?
So you ignored your setup and rushed in.
This market doesn’t punish ignorance it punishes lack of accountability.
Set rules you will never break, no matter how perfect the setup looks. No exceptions. Ever.
Find your edge. Build confidence through testing preferably forward testing.Confidence is earned, not felt.
Two trades per day is the maximum.
If you’re taking more, the problem isn’t the market it’s you.
You don’t need indicators, opinions, or narratives.
You need a chart and self control.
Everything else is noise.
Stop copying people with “big money.”
There’s someone holding a $500M position, and your $500 trade can outperform him.
The difference is he can’t control his emotions you can.
Accept the loss.execute again.and again.and again.
The ticker is $WALTER.
> Chart looks insane, ready for ATHs .
> Narrative has unlimited potential if done right.
> Some seriously talented OGs supporting this
I don't see how this underperforms.
