How scoring works →Summary
LAB is the native BEP-20 utility token of lab.pro, a self-described multi-chain AI trading terminal. Following a token generation event in October 2025, the token surged over 500% to a peak near $27 in spring 2026 before collapsing more than 99% from that high by August 2026. On-chain investigator ZachXBT published a detailed investigation in May 2026 alleging that insiders controlled over 95% of the token supply and orchestrated coordinated price manipulation across multiple centralized exchanges; those allegations have not been adjudicated by any court or regulator.
