anchored·5ufFK7…skjpSummary
LAB is the native token of LABtrade, an AI-powered multi-chain trading terminal that launched its token generation event on October 14, 2025, with backers including Animoca Brands, Amber Group, and GSR. In May 2026, blockchain investigator ZachXBT published an investigation alleging that insiders control approximately 95% of the 1-billion-token supply, that 226 million LAB tokens were staged in Bitget addresses between March and April 2026 ahead of a coordinated 350%-plus price surge to a $6 billion fully diluted valuation, and that 100 million tokens worth roughly $480 million were subsequently withdrawn to 10 freshly created wallets in a 12-hour window. ZachXBT connected LAB founders Vova Sadkov and Mark X to a prior abandoned project (Eesee/$ESE), identified a BVI shell entity used in opaque loan contracts, placed a $10,000 bounty on Sadkov, and called on Binance, Bitget, and Gate.io to freeze insider profits or delist the token; no public rebuttal from the LAB team or Bitget had been issued as of the time of reporting.
