The tokens were quickly made available for trading at comparatively lower prices, which the MEV bot purchased quickly and automatically executed trades.&nbsp;The Ulbricht-associated wallet then made the same mistake one more time, this time losing another $10.5 million, an estimated 35% of the supply, according to Arkham. The platform also mentioned that Ross attempted to add single-sided liquidity to sell the coins off passively but by mistake made a pool with Raydium CPMM instead of CLMM.&nbsp;Here, CPMM stands for Constant-Product Market Maker and CLMM stands for Concentrated Liquidity Market Maker. The MEV bot sold the tokens for more than $600,000. ROSS plunged 90% led by the bot snapping up the mispriced tokens and dumping them.&nbsp; Loss of 40% of the supply&nbsp; As per DEX Screener, ROSS is trading at about 1 cent and is up about 700% in the past 24 hours. Both the wallet addresses dropped by Arkham are registered for donation on FreeRoss.org, a campaign headed by Ulbricht’s family to release him from prison.&nbsp;The Solana donation address of Ulbricht got 50% of the ROSS supply from the developer. Even after losing 40% of the supply, Arkham revealed that the wallet addresses still hold 10% of the Ross token supply estimated at around $200,000.&nbsp;Ulbricht operated the online black market Silk Road, which exploitedBitcoin for its payments till 2013 when he was captured and sentenced to a double life sentence and over 40 years in 2015.&nbsp; The 47th President of the United States, Donald Trump forgave Ulbricht on January 22, making good on one of his crypto-related campaign promises.&nbsp;
