Case file KOL-5c277df855: Caller degen_lotus (@degen_lotus) — 5Y5n…9Pge
Summary
- On 44 of 59 calls of tokens it did not create, wallet 5Y5n…9Pge bought before posting (median 0.8 min before) and sold 50%+ within 30 minutes after (median 1.1 min after the call) while other wallets were buying (1150.32 SOL from 3159 buys-by-wallet between the calls and the sells); net +17.897 SOL on those calls. pump.fun callouts are tied to a position, so holding before the call is expected; the flagged part is selling into post-call buying.
- 33 of 59 called tokens fell 50%+ below the call-time market cap within 1 h. This is a market outcome, not evidence of the caller's own selling; shown as context and not counted as a detector.

Detectors
Each detector reports on-chain facts only, with a confidence from 0 to 1 that the pattern is present (not a finding about intent or identity).
On 44 of 59 calls of tokens it did not create, wallet 5Y5n…9Pge bought before posting (median 0.8 min before) and sold 50%+ within 30 minutes after (median 1.1 min after the call) while other wallets were buying (1150.32 SOL from 3159 buys-by-wallet between the calls and the sells); net +17.897 SOL on those calls. pump.fun callouts are tied to a position, so holding before the call is expected; the flagged part is selling into post-call buying.
False-positive risk: A caller can buy because they like the token and post it later; selling after posting can be ordinary profit-taking. We report timing only.

False-positive risk: Many traders react to the same call; wallets of a group selling at once can also be one bot managing several wallets for unrelated reasons.

Limitations
- Bonding-curve trades on pump.fun only (decoded from public Solana data by our collector); trades after migration to a DEX and transfers outside the curve are not in P&L.
- P&L is in SOL, before fees and priority tips; unrealized value uses the last bonding-curve price, which a large sale could not achieve.
- Wallet links are statistical (shared creation-block buying, shared funding wallet, shared exchange deposit path); one person can use many wallets and unrelated people can share infrastructure such as bots.
- Caller (KOL) call times are pump.fun home-feed callout times; we link the caller's public X profile and, where we captured it, the post. Telegram calls are not collected.
- Exchange cash-out paths follow up to 3 hops of plain SOL/USDC transfers and stop at labeled exchange wallets; amounts are upper bounds of the traced wallet's money on that path.
- Collector gaps (RPC drops) can miss a small share of trades; transaction signatures can be checked independently on Solscan or any Solana node.
