From a hookah bar to LAB If you’re looking for more background of the lab:native founder after @zachxbt and @SpecterAnalyst posts, here’s an overview that might help: Vlad Sadkov is a Russian from Moscow, born on July 31, 1996. He spent 6 years studying at Colegio Fundación Aloha College in Marbella, Spain. Before the NFT marketplace eesee and LAB, at 18 years old he launched a hookah bar called “High Lounge” in Moscow. After that, he and his partners were involved in event organization around 2019-2020 When COVID started, he launched a startup called EcoBox (pictured with his partner during that period) focused on producing disinfection boxes for smartphones, headphones, watches and other electronic devices. He is also listed in several other companies that were registered in Russia. In 2023, eesee launched, and he claims that $400K was raised from Dubai angel investors After eesee came lab:native, but that part is already well known thanks to those covering it Probably one of his main handles: vladsadkow (TG, Instagram etc) His twin brother’s X account: x.com/vvsadkov Have more info, but won’t post it here

You can reach out to someone - the fastest and easiest option would probably be @_SEAL_Org - so they can flag the wallets. It doesn’t guarantee anything ofc, especially given the relatively small loss amount for forensic intervention, but flagging can at least slightly complicate the perpetrator’s further actions

@loshmi No need to say it publicly, but think carefully about where your seed phrase was stored You probably didn’t directly give it to someone or just “download Zoom,” but there are many other ways it can be compromised if it was stored insecurely somewhere on your device

a few things: the loss is around $3000, anybody saying it’s fine it’s not much is missing out on the whole picture it was NEVER about the money but the fact that i got drained and i have ZERO idea how it happened, the only thing i recently used this wallet for besides holding Upegs (which is btw the only reason i am sad about the drain) was trying out Euphoria last night and holding NFTs i checked etherscan and the wallet that drained me was inactive for 900+ days my only assumption was that the drain that i had a long time ago that affected my main old wallet also somehow affected even this one and the drainer found out he had access yesterday and just took everything out of the wallet now if you saw everything that has happened recently then you know that my losses over last 2 weeks are easily over $15K+ so yea, not a very good fucking month if i may say so myself

THE LABVESTIGATION $LAB is a project that is currently trading at a $4 Billion dollar market cap, with potentially up to “95% of supply owned by insiders” according to ZachXBT. It is up 3000% in the last 3 months. But why? We found a single entity likely controls 90%+ of their tokens.

Looks like @giddydefi was exploited on April 23 for more than $1.3M Giddy is a self-custody wallet that gives users access to DeFi protocols to generate yield. Mostly through Yield Basis. According to this onchain message, they are proposing that the exploiter return 80% of the funds Backtracing the recipient wallet from the message shows that on April 23 there were 3 withdrawals from Yield Basis totaling over $1.3M in solana:3NZ9JMVBmGAqocybic2c7LQCJScmgsAZ6vQqTDzcqmJh After that, everything was swapped into DAI and transferred to: 0x7dA8b4bbB1aEc79D1A0466A980f1e81f61EA8f20 The perpetrator wallet was funded via Tornado Cash

1/ Dritan Kapllani connection to @yelotree In a recent @zachxbt post, I noticed an interesting detail - KOL @yelotree is also being charged for allegedly helping launder money through his Miami car rental business. On March 15, a few days after the theft described in the case, the suspects allegedly arranged with @yelotree to purchase a BMW M4. Since the payment was reportedly made in crypto, I decided to look into what could be found related to it

6/ And this suspicious wallet has direct interactions with 0x373037F2c90c96BACbaD00992C736131130e0E6d - one of the probable yelotree wallets showing the same behavior, using the same services (like chips(.)gg), and bridging to his Solana wallet There were even some transactions around March 15 worth roughly $72K, similar to what was mentioned in court documents. Of course we cannot confirm that this was payment for the BMW M4 Let’s see what happens next - we’ll probably have more information on this case once more time passes

5/ So, since nothing directly led to the BMW M4 payment, I started backtracing transactions from the Dritan-linked wallets reported by @zachxbt Starting from this wallet: 0x4487Db847db2fC99372a985743A26F46e0B2bbA6 This wallet sent funds through one hop to: 0x7648645b18D71cB573e26979D664db08C2e5F4CE Looks like an intermediate wallet involved in some scam-related activity, though not necessarily directly. It also had many interactions with various crypto casinos
