Solana, hailed as the top blockchain of 2024, is facing both accolades and scrutiny as it grapples with significant highs and <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/memecoin-bears-take-flight-amidst-market-volatile-sentiment/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">alarming lows</a>. Despite impressive wins, the ecosystem gets stuck with challenges and recurrent scrutiny, drawing praise and criticism alike.
Additionally, with Solana’s remarkable trading volume exceeding $2 billion in April, the network still suffered a staggering 72% transaction failure rate, raising concerns among investors and analysts.
Adding to the turbulence, a new <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/fantom-protocol-founder-considers-memecoins-integration/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">meme coin</a> called CoolCoin (COOL) has entered the scene, only to be harmed by fraudulent activities. According to data from Lookonchain, an on-chain analytics firm, a sharp-eyed individual, dubbed a “sniper/insider,” has orchestrated a dump of COOL tokens on unsuspecting investors. This insider swiftly pocketed over $1.68 million in just an hour, holding onto a sizable portion of COOL tokens valued at over $20 million.
Lookonchain issued a warning and said, “Don’t buy when snipers/insiders are dumping MEMEcoins on you, or you’ll lose heavily as this trader did!”
<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-what-happened">What Happened?</h3>
The scheme involved two wallets, potentially belonging to the same person, withdrawing funds from the MEXC exchange and utilizing 35.4 <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/solana-price-plummets-amidst-market-crash-can-sol-make-a-comeback/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">SOL</a> (equivalent to $5,000) to purchase a massive 574.27 million COOL tokens.&nbsp;

Subsequently, these tokens were dispersed among multiple addresses, with Lookonchain tracing the sale of 22.81 million COOL tokens for 11,896 SOL (approximately $1.69 million) across five addresses.
Investors are warned against succumbing to such schemes, as evidenced by another trader who lost $152K in less than 30 minutes. This individual splurged 1,600 SOL to acquire COOL tokens, only to sell them for a mere 532.58 SOL. This incident underscored the risks associated with meme coin frenzies and the presence of opportunistic actors in the market.
