SatoshiVM's SAVM Under Controversy in Cryptocurrency Communities
The SatoshiVM's SAVM has become a point of debate within crypto spaces. The concern is due to the alleged existence of a select group of wallets that hold a large portion of the initial token supply. Substantially, millions of dollars worth of these tokens were sold off to traders shortly after the launch.
SatoshiVM's Protocol and the Buzzwords
SatoshiVM appears to have incorporated many current buzzwords in stating its protocol. The platform purports to be a Bitcoin$42,260 -0.64% layer 2 protocol driven by zero-knowledge rollup technology. This combination of terms can be interpreted as a network that processes transactions on Bitcoin without needing to disclose additional data to network validators.
Initial Hype and Controversy over SAVM
SAVM had been one of the most anticipated token releases in recent times. Data from DEXTools shows that the token's value increased by several thousand percent, reaching a market capitalisation as high as $90 million just a few hours post issuance. However, the controversy sparked soon after its launch on January 19. @bubblemaps, an on-chain analysis tool, reveals that 15% of the token supply was transferred to a few wallets, allegedly owned by market influencers who promptly sold the tokens upon receipt.
Profit-taking Investors and Market Observers
Several high-profile investors who took part in SatoshiVM's private sale verified that they withdrew profits from their positions. However, this move was met with criticism from market observers questioning the intent behind selling their allocations within the first few hours after issuance.
Analysis of Wallet Activities
According to the analysis service @Lookonchain, a wallet that received SAVM tokens from the publicly-known SatoshiVM team wallet obtained more than $4 million worth of tokens post-launch. This wallet sold $1.2 million worth of tokens in the first two days after issuance.
SatoshiVM's Response to the Controversy
So far, SatoshiVM has successfully countered all allegations. They are planning a community ask-me-anything session on Thursday to respond to queries directly. They have yet to reply to a message sent by a source on Thursday morning in Asia.
Resilience of SAVM Tokens Amid Controversy
In spite of the ongoing controversy, SAVM tokens have exhibited resilience. Since January 19, prices have fluctuated between the $7 and $14 range and continue to be popular among retail traders.
