A market maker received 2.5 million LAPTOP tokens from the project team and has sold one-fifth of the allocation: 466,255 tokens at an average price of $4.47, for proceeds of $2.08 million.[2][1] LAPTOP, which Bloomingbit describes as a meme coin launched by Hunter Biden, fell nearly 90% shortly after trading began.[4][3] What is left of the grant sits in an office with a single client, a standing order, and no door on the sell side.
Token debuts are dinners with a price feed, and somebody has to arrange the seating. Margaux Oyebanji, chief of introductions, does that for a living. “The grant is a courtesy,” said Margaux Oyebanji. “You seat the guest near the pantry. The pantry is the market.” The wallet diversified (it diversified one-fifth of the way into dollars). The trade calls this providing depth. Depth, as arranged, only moves one way.
Margaux Oyebanji also circulates the posting for a debut market maker, and it is short. “Requirements: depth, the appearance of depth, and the willingness to leave before dessert,” said Margaux Oyebanji. Her office keeps a junior staffer whose whole job is to count the tokens leaving the room and to look at the wall while counting. The wallet’s holdings statement runs to a few lines: the grant, the proceeds, and a room marked Depth with no floor, no clock, and a door that only swings out.
At press time, four-fifths of the grant had not been sold. The wallet is providing depth to whoever is still seated.
Who gains, who loses
Event, then consequence
2.5 million tokens granted to the market maker, about one-fifth sold [^claim_115] the wallet converts a grant it received to be the counterparty into cash; the loss sits with buyers of a token that fell nearly 90%. [3]
466,255 tokens sold at an average of $4.47 for $2.08 million [^claim_114] proceeds leave the token entirely; the destination of the rest is the same wallet.
Four-fifths of the grant remains unsold in one wallet [^claim_115] a single address still holds the token's largest exit; the buyer of any bounce is buying that exit.
LAPTOP is described as a meme coin launched by Hunter Biden [^claim_117] the exposure is the allocation structure, not the name on the ticker.
Invented official: Margaux Oyebanji, 'chief of introductions' — fictional. Every quote attributed to her in the body (the courtesy, the pantry, the job posting) is invented satire and is not a statement by any real person, firm, or office.
