Crypto trader misses out $4 million cashing out for just $6k 
Cryptocurrency Jan 17, 2025 Share
In a sobering reminder of the unpredictable nature of the cryptocurrency market, a trader who purchased 46.5 million of the Solana-based AI concept token, AGiXT, at a bargain price of $1,756 has become the subject of viral discussion after selling their holdings prematurely for just $6,284, a mere fraction of the potential profit.
According to data retrieved by Finbold from Lookonchain and Solscan on January 17, the trader initially realized a modest profit of $4,529 from their investment.
Although this return would appear commendable under ordinary circumstances, the subsequent surge in AGiXT’s value revealed the true extent of what was left on the table.
