By the end of the month a independent 3rd party managed to find a unlocked Solana wallet containing 13M tokens! Once the Solana team was fully exposed they released a medium article admitting to the fraud, Explaining that these 13M tokens where loaned to a “marker maker”.
On May 23rd the Solana team announced that they were only able to retrieve 3.3M coins out of the 11.3M they had loaned out. Instead they released 8M new SOL tokens into circulation in order meet their commitment to burn without any announcement beforehand.
