4.81 LAB, are you going to buy the dip?


The market maker controls 95% of the circulating supply, just pushed up to 6.66 on May 11th, then immediately plummeted 50%, ZachXBT confirmed insider manipulation. But just when everyone is shouting "zero," it rebounded stubbornly from below 3 back to 4.8—this rebound, is it a trap set by the whales to lure in more buyers, or your last chance to get in?
First, look at the surface: violent shakeout, dead but not dead.
In the past half month, LAB surged from around 0.7x directly to nearly 10x, reaching an all-time high of 6.66, with daily trading volume hitting 920M. Then a spike below 3, now bouncing back to 4.8. Market cap is 1.49B, 24h volume 70M, and the daily chart holds the MA25 support.
First thing: on-chain big V leaks, 95% of the chips are in the hands of the market maker.
ZachXBT and other verified accounts confirmed: insiders/market makers control over 95% of circulating supply, manipulating prices through private vesting adjustments and bulk transfers to new wallets. Over 920M LAB tokens were withdrawn from exchanges in May, followed by a 50% single-day crash, contract liquidations, and DEX perpetuals being delisted.
Second thing: the project fundamentals are actually not bad.
LAB is building a full-chain AI trading ecosystem—one-stop spot + futures + AI strategy optimization on Solana, ETH, BNB chains. The track is solid; by 2026, AI + multi-chain execution will be the DeFi trend. The product has practicality, low fees, and high speed.
The problem is: no one knows how many real users there are, whether TVL has increased.
Third thing: technical signals show a “cutting through blood” warning.
Daily chart holds 4.5 MA25 support, volume increases during the rebound. RSI pulls back from oversold, short-term MA still shows a bullish alignment. But note—5.2-5.5 is a strong resistance zone, and above 6.0 is a massive all-time high trapped in a large accumulation.
On one side:
- Genuine demand for AI trading track, multi-chain product integration
- Rebounded 60% from below 3, bottom-fishing + project team support
- Maintained MA25, structure not fully broken
- If BTC holds 76k-78k, altcoins have a high chance of rebounding
On the other side:
- Insider manipulation FUD not clarified, risk of secondary attack at any time
- Past record of 50% daily crash, contract liquidity is extremely poor
- 95% of chips concentrated, market maker can do as they please
- Coingecko 72% bearish, sentiment is negative
Key level: 4.5, the last line of dignity for bulls.
Resistance above: 5.2-5.5 → 6.0+ → 6.66 ATH
Support below: 4.5 → 4.0-3.5 → 3.0 (bottom crash point)
Short-term traders:
Want to bet on a rebound? Only try small positions at 4.5-4.6 (no more than 5% of total), stop-loss at 4.2. First target 5.5, second target 6.0.
Swing traders:
Wait for the daily close above 5.5 before considering entering, stop-loss at 5.0, target 6.5.
Long-term gamblers:
If you are among the very few who believe AI trading ecosystems can be realized, consider buying below 4 as a lottery ticket. I only hold 1-2% of my position in this kind of market cap; if I lose, I don’t mind, if I gain, it’s a surprise.
LAB now is like the squid token of 2021—
The nicer way to say it is “AI narrative leader,” the less nice way is “market maker’s cash machine.”
At 4.5, are you going all-in for profit or just buying the bag? #TradFi交易分享挑战 #加密市场下跌15万人爆仓 $BTC $ETH $LAB

The main players hold over 90% of the coins, smart money and big funds—who dares to come in and manipulate the market?
Based on the current market cap, over 4 billion, nearly 5 billion.
You buy 4 billion, and they can pour in 4 billion; the price still won't move.
The market maker has broken even and achieved financial freedom.
