i'm used to personal attacks in this space
a lot of people here spent the past year assassinating my character and sending the vilest hate my way after i got liquidated of all my perps positions on 10/10
i went from being the greatest thing to ever happen to the trenches to apparently being the spawn of the devil
i ignored all of it
buried my head deep in the trenches
took a bunch of contrarian, high-conviction plays while almost nobody was paying attention (and many even attacked!)
and kept putting my thesis out there the entire time
then the thesis played out
i became the #1 all-time trader on fomo
and suddenly i went from being the spawn of the devil to the best thing since sliced bread
the entire timeline started glazing me again for weeks
until i dared to buy a launchpad token called $EMBER yesterday
apparently i'm not allowed to buy anything except the main meme/stock launchpad token
the hate attacks came flying in again
clowning posts
death wishes
the whole nine yards
none of it really bothered me
i've seen it all before
and these people always come back bending the knee when the thesis plays out anyway
that's just people
but one thing did stick with me
a lot of people kept circulating an inaccurate Bubblemaps cluster claiming that 50%+ of the $EMBER supply was tied to one cluster
some even insinuated that this cluster was connected to me
and that this was somehow the reason i didn't buy the biggest meme/stock launchpad token on Solana
so let's clear this up once and for all
there was no bundle
the so-called 'cluster' existed because Bubblemaps linked the wallet used for Ember's flywheel mechanism to all the wallets it was distributing tokens to due to the wallet being an EOA instead of a contract
aka legitimate users
the flywheel is actually one of Ember's key innovations and one of the features that differentiates it from other launchpads in the space
so no
there wasn't some massive insider bundle controlling 50%+ of the supply
that narrative is simply wrong
Bubblemaps also recommended that the EOA be replaced with a contract instead
hopefully the Ember dev makes that change
so hopefully this puts the entire thing to bed
there was no bundle
there was no insider cluster
and any attempt to connect me to one is pure character assassination
i'll take the heat
i'll take the clowning
i'll take the hate
but don't fabricate a narrative around my trades just because you don't like them
i've been through this cycle before
and i'm still here
@embercurve We’re just a tiny $FLAME inside @embercurve.
Who knows, maybe one day we turn into something massive.
$EMBER and $FLAME both look good here.
