Solana (SOL) ecosystem’s revelation that a crypto investor’s unrealized gains reached an extremely high return rate of about 4000% in just five hours has caught the attention of the crypto world. Accordingly, the investor’s $49,000 investment turned into $2 million thanks to a recently launched memecoin, Tori the Cat (TORI).
Investor Used 344 SOL to Purchase TORI
According to the on-chain data provider Lookonchain, the investor used $49,000 worth of 344 SOL to purchase 261.4 million TORI tokens. The SOL used for the purchase was provided through two withdrawal transactions from Binance to two different wallet addresses on April 25 and 26.
After the purchase, the investor transferred the TORI tokens to multiple wallet addresses on April 28, and the investment reached a value of $2 million about five hours after the transaction was made. This sequence of events became even more noteworthy as Lookonchain and several other accounts expressed concerns on social media platforms about potential insider trading.
Facing a Liquidity Issue
On the other hand, following the astonishing rate of unrealized gains, the investor faced a significant problem with liquidity constraints in converting these gains into realized profits. In the highly volatile world of cryptocurrency, unrealized gains can rapidly dissipate if not properly managed.
According to data provided by SOLScan, the TORI token is currently facing a significant liquidity issue. The decentralized exchange Raydium, where the investor made the transaction, only shows the wallet address ‘D8F1F…dRexP’ as the liquidity pool for the TORI token. This reveals that the availability of the liquidity pool for trading transactions in this altcoin is limited. Currently, only 6,466 SOL and 93.65 million TORI tokens are accessible.
Therefore, although the investor has achieved significant paper gains, the liquidity constraints associated with TORI make converting these gains into realized profits a significant challenge, though not impossible. This situation highlights the inherent risks of trading memecoins and low-liquidity altcoins, especially for novice investors who may not fully understand the impact of liquidity issues on profit-taking. Therefore, investors interested in such altcoins need to be cautious and thoroughly understand the associated risks.
