Bitget Implicated in RaveDAO’s $23M Token Transfer Amid Price Manipulation Allegations

On-chain investigator ZachXBT has accused RaveDAO of insider knowledge and coordinated price manipulation of its $RAVE token, with evidence tracing a $23 million transfer from a RAVE distribution address to the Bitget exchange. The allegations suggest that team-associated addresses engaged in suspicious exchange activity just before a dramatic market collapse, raising serious questions about market integrity and exchange compliance in the cryptocurrency sector.

RaveDAO Accused of Insider Knowledge in $RAVE Token Price Manipulation

Blockchain investigator ZachXBT has leveled serious allegations against RaveDAO, claiming the project team had prior knowledge of coordinated price manipulation of its $RAVE token. The accusations stem from traced transactions linking team-associated addresses to suspicious exchange activity preceding a dramatic market collapse.

Evidence points to a $23 million token transfer from a RAVE distribution address to Bitget deposit wallets on April 26, triggering an immediate 40% price plunge from $1 to $0.60. This followed an unsustainable 11,000% price surge over nine days - a pattern characteristic of pump-and-dump schemes.

RaveDAO has vehemently denied involvement in a six-part X thread, stating "the team is not engaged in, nor responsible for, recent price action." The rebuttal comes amid growing scrutiny of the project's token distribution practices and alleged insider trading.
