One notable transaction saw an individual make an impressive 22,379 $SOL ($2.9 million) in under 20 minutes. This individual created a new wallet just five hours ago and withdrew funds from Bybit.
They then spent 16,900 $SOL ($2.1 million) to snipe 612.23 million $WATER (22.71% of the pooled $WATER) in the same block where the deployer added liquidity. Subsequently, they sold all the $WATER tokens, netting 39,279 $SOL ($5 million) in the process.
