A memecoin trader logged a nearly $8-million loss after selling his Jupiter (JUP) tokens to buy the top of the Boden memecoin.

The unknown memecoin whale’s investment is down nearly 99%, according to popular crypto trader Toby, who wrote in a July 21 X post:“This trader TWAP’d out of $8m worth of JUP for BODEN at the pico top of Boden. He then sold $12.5k worth (0.5% of total) but bag held the rest to now, where he is down near to 98%.”Boden whale, trades. Source: Toby/X

Following multiple trades, the whale’s initial $8-million BODEN investment is now worth around $85,000.
