aPriori Airdrop suspected of being subjected to a large-scale Sybil Attack, 80% Token flow to suspicious Wallets

ChainCatcher news, according to a report by DLNews, the trading infrastructure aPriori, invested by YZi Labs, faced serious manipulation concerns regarding its APR Token Airdrop conducted on October 23. On-chain data shows that approximately 80% of the Airdrop tokens on the BNB chain were claimed by 5,800 associated Wallets, exhibiting typical characteristics of an industrial-scale Sybil Attack. What’s even more suspicious is that these wallets were ready before the official announcement of the Airdrop eligibility criteria. From October 19 to 20, a large number of wallets obtained the BNB required to execute transactions, but it wasn’t until October 22 that aPriori announced the Airdrop on the BNB chain. All suspicious wallets were funded by 13 wallets, and there were no transaction records prior to purchasing Monad testnet Tokens. aPriori has raised $30 million, with investors including YZi Labs, HashKey Capital, and others. The market cap of APR Token is currently $93 million, down 60% from its peak. Founder Ray Song and the investors have not publicly responded to this incident.
