ChainCatcher reported that crypto KOL Rune pointed to a cluster of newly created wallets that showed direct fund transfers during the LAPTOP airdrop claim process. According to Rune, wallet 0x8DA...A18d claimed 4,276 LAPTOP for free, sold the tokens, and received about $400,000. The wallet then sent 0.02 ETH to another newly created wallet, 0xc27...b591. That second address also claimed 4,276 LAPTOP at no cost and sold them right away, but because the token price had already fallen from the level seen in the first sale, the transaction brought in only about $200,000. Rune described the related on-chain activity around LAPTOP as becoming "strange," while stopping short of confirming whether the two wallets were controlled by the same entity.

Rune said the second wallet also claimed 4,276 LAPTOP for free and sold them immediately. Because the token price had fallen by the time that address sold, the trade brought in only about $200,000.
