This might be one of the craziest launch snipes in a while. 😳
A sniper paid an unbelievable 536.88 $BNB , around $343K, just in bribe fees to get into $ZEST at launch before everyone else.
On top of that, the wallet also spent another $600K USDT buying 18.3M ZEST immediately after launch, bringing the total cost basis close to $943K .
And somehow… it still worked. The trader later sold the entire 18.3M ZEST position for about $1.22M, walking away with an estimated profit of roughly $277K even after burning hundreds of thousands in fees just to secure the entry.
Paying $343K in bribes for a single trade sounds completely insane , but in hyper-competitive launches, speed is everything.
