Bubblemaps says influencer Cupsey made $1.74M by prompting follower buying then dumping

Crypto influencer Cupsey used nominee wallets to front-run followers and dump tokens on them, generating about $1.74 million in profits through 30 linked wallets since May, according to a Bubblemaps analysis. Bubblemaps said Cupsey accumulated tokens near lows through an operating wallet, dispersed the holdings across multiple wallets, then used a public wallet to buy in ways that encouraged followers to copy the trades before selling through nominee wallets to exit positions. The analysis also found links between Cupsey and malicious rug-pull deployers tied to about $1.3 million in activity.
