to buy the token after its launch and saw its value increase by about 650 times. Even after the rise, most of the tokens have not been sold. Records show that the trader still holds nearly $1.88 million worth of the token.

The “4” meme coin was created in response to a phishing incident that took place on the BNB Chain. According to Zhao’s post on X, the attacker behind the scam reportedly made only $4,000 before being exposed.
