Summary
crypto.news reports that Lookonchain identified several wallets that bought early and sold during the rally, with combined estimated profits above $385,000, and that Kimchi's account had received 500M tokens. 99Bitcoins and FinanceFeeds repeat the $385K figure, citing Lookonchain.
What the sources support
One analyst origin (Lookonchain), repeated by three outlets. That is one origin, not three confirmations.
- That Lookonchain published this estimate.
What remains unresolved
- Who controls the flagged wallets. crypto.news states that transfers do not establish who controlled the addresses or whether anyone had advance knowledge.
- Whether any profit went to anyone named in this archive. Nothing here establishes that.
Limits of this receipt
- Lookonchain's own post is now inspected directly. The estimate remains one analyst origin repeated by other outlets; it is not independent confirmation of ownership or intent.
- This estimate must not be combined with Bitquery's figure for the separate 20 October token (R-B02).

Edits & limits
What UNREPOST changed:
- Cropped to the target post, preserving its text, visible attachments and date/time line; unrelated replies, side panels and lower reply-filter controls omitted.
- 4 separate normal-browser carousel views are labelled Part N of K and joined vertically without resizing; the result is not presented as one continuous screenshot.
- Photographs of people, including portrait avatars where present, covered with visible labelled boxes.
- Provenance strips give x.com, capture UTC, sign-in state, displayed date/time and the meaning of each redaction label.
Limits:
- A screenshot records what X displayed at capture time, not whether the author's claims are true.
- A current screenshot does not authenticate earlier edits, deleted originals or screenshots attached by another author.
- A post is its author's claim or opinion. Allegations in it are not findings.
- Wallet attribution and the word “scammers” are Lookonchain's analysis, not findings.

22 October Project Kimchi (QR-code token)
B1Y2fJW8rtirrBuUcda14pSaeiASHaGqTxQdxU8Mpump
Basis
Protos (S05) links this DEX Screener market as the QR-incident token. We resolved the identifier through DEX Screener's API (S11), which lists it as the base token, and through our RPC read (S14), which confirms it is a mint.
Sources
- Its market and wallet figures are attributed to Lookonchain. Until the Lookonchain originals are retrieved, they are secondary support for Lookonchain's claims.
- The article itself warns that market capitalisation is not money lost, and that wallet transfers do not show who controlled the addresses.
- The ~$15M peak and $284K value are the article's own reporting, without a named data source or timestamp.
- It calls the event the 'October 23 collapse'. Other reports and the pair-creation time place the QR-code episode on 22 October UTC, so the date label may reflect a different timezone.
- The KIMCHI price move is attributed to DEX Screener without a mint address. UNREPOST has not linked it to a specific token identity.
- The article itself says its view that the deal is back on is the author's inference.
- This is X's live rendering on 28 Oct 2026. The post may have been edited before then, and X truncates long text.
- A post is its author's claim or opinion. Allegations in it are not findings.
- A screenshot records what X displayed at capture time, not whether the author's claims are true.
- A current screenshot does not authenticate earlier edits, deleted originals or screenshots attached by another author.
- A post is its author's claim or opinion. Allegations in it are not findings.
- Wallet attribution and the word “scammers” are Lookonchain's analysis, not findings.

Correction C-0002 ·
Updated source-access and image-acquisition descriptions after a direct x.com recheck. Current receipt wording now identifies the inspected original posts, while deleted originals remain uninspected and analyst/author claims retain their limits.
A signed-in normal browser made the current post views available on 28 October 2026. Earlier capture-service/embed records and their access history are preserved; this does not authenticate deleted originals or prove the posts' allegations.
