  • A total of 125 billion tokens were sold at a price of $0.004 each, achieving a $4 billion valuation.
  • The purchased tokens are set to be distributed to wallets within 48-72 hours but will remain locked until this distribution is concluded.

Details of the Sale:

This rapid fundraising success occurred across several exchanges, including Bybit, Kraken, and KuCoin. The priced tokens have temporarily locked trading capabilities to prevent movement before the distribution is complete.
