$TOSHI Jumps 90% Post-Listings: Onchain Data Reveals Whale Moves With Big Profits

Cryptocurrency market is active as $TOSHI increased by almost 90% after listing on several centralized exchanges (CEXs). Data onchain shows that one of the whales (possibly with three wallets) took advantage of the surge and made a profit of about $1.415 million.

Whale Moves 7.25B $TOSHI Into Coinbase

Blockchain analytics site Onchain Lens announced a deposit of 7.25 billion $TOSHI tokens in to Coinbase by three wallets probably under the control of one holder with a valuation of 6.15 million dollars. 

The decision was closely following a token price boom that put the entity in a position to benefit due to the sudden influx of trading activity.

The whale had piled up the tokens months before. It is recorded that the entity had withdrawn $TOSHI equivalent of $4.738 million at Coinbase approximately two months ago, at a time when the market mood around the token was less aggressive. 

The most recent deposit therefore secured a huge profit margin of over 1.4 million dollars.

Trading Activity Signals Coordinated Strategy

These wallets attached to the whale exhibit a sequence of timed transfer. The accumulation of tokens by the entity was strategic, but the transactions varied between tens of millions to over a billion $TOSHI at a time.

Large movements were done by a single address, 0xc70…d, containing transfers of 2.42 billion TOSHI, valued at $2.27 million, to Coinbase, among others, only a few hours prior. The other related addresses are 0x02…b6ad and 0xa…594.

These wallets were involved on constant withdrawals and deposits in the last two months and this strengthens the possibility of the existence of one coordinated body behind the transactions.

Market Reaction and Price Outlook

The exchange listing-driven $TOSHI rally is indicative of the increased price performance impact of token accessibility. As new funds entered the market and investors flooded in, the token briefly hit $0.0011 and settled around $0.0009.

Trading Volume spiked to indicate increased retail activity at 1.17 million that day, according to the TradingView data. The sudden increase also saw speculative traders who were keen on taking advantage of volatile situations in the short term.

Implications for Investors

Although the current rally points to possibility of speculative profits in new tokens, the activities of the whale reflect the dangers that retail investors stand. The capacity of one large entity to impact supply at exchanges can have a strong impact on short-term price stability.

Though exchange listings may give things momentum in the market, market analysts warn the dependence on a whale-driven liquidity will be problematic in terms of sustainability. In case whales keep cashing in holdings, the price corrections can be made.

Conclusion

Recent events surrounding $TOSHI indicate the two forces influencing the cryptocurrency market: greater market accessibility via exchange listing and actions of large participants. Retail investors are made to deal with the volatility as whales make profits in the millions.

Preliminary analysis of the Balancer V2 attack, which resulted in a loss of $120 million.

On November 3, the Balancer V2 protocol and its fork projects were attacked on multiple chains, resulting in a serious loss of more than $120 million. BlockSec issued an early warning at the first opportunity [1] and gave a preliminary analysis conclusion [2]. This was a highly complex attack. Our preliminary analysis showed that the root cause was that the attacker manipulated the invariant, thereby distorting the calculation of the price of BPT (Balancer Pool Token) -- that is, the LP token of Balancer Pool -- so that it could profit in a stable pool through a batchSwap operation. Background Information 1. Scaling and Rounding To standardize the decimal places of different tokens, the Balancer contract will: upscale: Upscales the balance and amount to a uniform internal precision before performing the calculation; downscale: Reduces the result to its original precision and performs directional rounding (e.g., inputs are usually rounded up to ensure the pool is not under-filled; output paths are often truncated downwards). Conclusion: Within the same transaction, the asymmetrical rounding direction used in different stages can lead to a systematic slight deviation when executed repeatedly in very small steps. 2. Prices of D and BPT The Balancer V2 protocol’s Composable Stable Pool[3] and the fork protocol were affected by this attack. Stable Pool is used for assets that are expected to maintain a close 1:1 exchange ratio (or be exchanged at a known exchange rate), allowing large exchanges without causing significant price shocks, thereby greatly improving the efficiency of capital utilization between similar or related assets. The pool uses the Stable Math (a Curve-based StableSwap model), where the invariant D represents the pool's "virtual total value". The approximate price of BPT (Pool's LP Token) is: The formula above shows that if D is made smaller on paper (even if no funds are actually withdrawn), the price of BPT will be cheaper. BTP represents the pool share and is used to calculate how many pool reserves can be obtained when withdrawing liquidity. Therefore, if an attacker can obtain more BPT, they can profit when withdrawing liquidity. Attack Analysis Taking an attack transaction on Arbitrum as an example, the batchSwap operation can be divided into three stages: Phase 1: The attacker redeems BPT for the underlying asset to precisely adjust the balance of one of the tokens (cbETH) to a critical point (amount = 9) for rounding. This step sets the stage for the precision loss in the next phase. Phase Two: The attacker uses a carefully crafted quantity (= 8) to swap between another underlying asset (wstETH) and cbETH. Due to rounding down when scaling the token quantity, the calculated Δx is slightly smaller (from 8.918 to 8), causing Δy to be underestimated and the invariant D (derived from Curve's StableSwap model) to be smaller. Since BPT price = D / totalSupply, the BPT price is artificially suppressed. Phase 3: The attackers reverse-swap the underlying assets back to BPT, restoring the balance within the pool while profiting from the depressed price of BPT—acquiring more BPT tokens. Finally, the attacker used another profitable transaction to withdraw liquidity, thereby using the extra BPT to acquire other underlying assets (cbETH and wstETH) in the Pool and thus profit.
