FINN – Launchpad boss blasted over $MRBEAST coin crash

Crypto launchpad founder Finn (@finnbags) is under fire again after another memecoin meltdown. A token called $MRBEAST created by an anonymous user and tied to royalties for MrBeast’s $5M Africa clean water project skyrocketed to a $7M market cap within an hour, generating $31M in volume. Finn donated $116K live on stream, becoming the project’s top donor, but critics say that’s where the goodwill ended.

Instead of promoting the coin, Finn only plugged an unrelated X community called “water,” and the token’s value tanked 99% soon after. This comes on the heels of accusations that Finn and his platform BagsApp profit from unclaimed token fees and “charitable” coin hype. Whether it’s bad optics or bad faith, the crypto crowd isn’t pulling punches.

NapoKoala – Sleepy koalas stir NFT mint frenzy

Move over apes and penguins koalas are next in line for the NFT spotlight. NapoKoala (@napokoala) is teasing a free mint that’s already got early NFT influencers buzzing. With supply details still under wraps, the project will launch on Ethereum and promises whitelist spots for certain community members.

Supporters compare the rollout to past NFT hits like Bored Ape Yacht Club and Pudgy Penguins, framing it as the “early caller redemption arc” for traders who’ve been chasing the next big animal-themed win. While free mints lower the barrier to entry, the hype-driven NFT scene has a way of separating dreamers from their ETH. As always, DYOR because even sleepy koalas can wake up hungry.

Solana Reserve – New tracker reveals $1B in SOL holdings

The Strategic SOL Reserve (SSR) just launched as the first institutional holdings tracker for Solana - think Bloomberg Terminal, but built for blockchain. The platform currently tracks 5.9M SOL (~$1.15B), representing 1.03% of total supply, held by eight verified institutional entities.

Unlike rough estimates in crypto Twitter threads, SSR uses real-time blockchain verification, cross-references SEC filings, and integrates live SOL price data. Users can view rankings, supply impact, historical trends, and entity profilesall wrapped in a mobile-friendly dashboard with a Telegram Mini-App.

For Solana bulls, it’s the clearest signal yet that institutional capital is flowing in. For skeptics, it’s a reminder that big money moves quietlyuntil someone builds a tool to watch it happen.

Cerebro – Portfolio app drops hot NFT whitelist

Portfolio tracker Cerebro (@cerebro_hq) is expanding from managing wallets to minting its own genesis NFT collection and whitelist applications close fast. Founded by @maverick23NFT, Cerebro bills itself as a sleeker, more accurate alternative to Asset Dash, offering real-time portfolio management with polished UI/UX.

The mint is generating major buzz, with 40,000+ whitelist applications already in, thanks in part to comparisons with Kaito’s 2023 genesis collection, which rocketed to a 10 ETH floor. Applicants boost their chances by producing fan content or community collabs, but competition is fierce.

For NFT traders, Cerebro could be more than just another mintit’s a tool that already knows your wallet’s every move. Let’s hope it’s a friend, not a telepathic rival.
