The \u2018success story\u2019 came from an entity that had spent just 11 SOL (worth approximately $960 at the time) to accumulate 158.51 million ASTEROID through three wallets. It\u2019s worth noting that this is a Solana-based altcoin, which had just seen the light of day.<\/p>\n<p>Further on-chain data shows that the entity sold almost 135 million ASTEROID tokens for $135,000 worth of SOL and still held 23.76 million coins at the time of the post. In total, this resulted in a 351x return in the span of less than 120 minutes.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">This guy turned $960 into $337K in less than 2 hours \u2014 a 351x return!<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/16.0.1\/72x72\/1f631.png\" alt=\"\ud83d\ude31\" class=\"wp-smiley\" style=\"height: 1em; max-height: 1em;\"><\/p>\n<p>The trader spent just 11 <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%24SOL&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">$SOL<\/a> ($960) to buy 158.51M <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%24ASTEROID&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">$ASTEROID<\/a> through 3 wallets.<\/p>\n<p>He then sold 134.75M <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%24ASTEROID&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">$ASTEROID<\/a> for 1,539 <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%24SOL&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">$SOL<\/a> ($135K) and still holds 23.76M <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%24ASTEROID&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">$ASTEROID<\/a> ($202K).<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/2Y7c77stw1\">https:\/\/t.co\/2Y7c77stw1<\/a>\u2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/mwfNa5jZYP\">pic.twitter.com\/mwfNa5jZYP<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Lookonchain (@lookonchain) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/lookonchain\/status\/2045013017042284572?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 17, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Data from GeckoTerminal shows that the most likely seller who took advantage of the price run was a developer.
