Case report26 wallets on the board

The GROKLET launcher: 4 SOL to $1.8M

By the Iris teamUpdated October 17, 2026

5FqUo9aBjsp7QeeyN6Vi2ZmF2fjS4H5EU7wnAQwPy17z created 20,543 pump.fun tokens between Aug 6, 2025 and Oct 15, 2026, about 47 a day. It started with 4.1 SOL in July 2025. On Oct 17, 2026, it and its two treasuries hold 1,337,419 USDC and 4,428.32 SOL, about $1.8M, almost all of it sent there by the launcher. On its launches, the buyers that look like outsiders are often its own wallets. It paid 23 of them from its own wallet, in batches of identical amounts to the lamport, and they paid SOL back to it. They buy its tokens in the seconds its dev wallet sells, then all sell together. Every transfer and trade below links to its transaction.

The 23 wallets it pays

Each payment below is a plain SOL transfer from the launcher to the wallet, read on chain. Several wallets got exactly the same amount, minutes apart.

They pay it back

20 of the 23 sent SOL back to the launcher, again in plain transfers read on chain. For example 82N59E… sent 94.95 SOL, 5jRiLg… 84.22 SOL, Dgs61a… 67.69 SOL, 9Z5Ad4… 33.70 SOL: https://solscan.io/tx/2ov7BZ94aXdsgu2Fr52EEUrMtDLgJThHwMonRLL95ewBQasLU2mfKwwD7N6AyrypuoHvKk1fkwQCfqctYN7Z6dfS

Its distributor wallet GRCnKP6q7rkF6Mbd5LzP4iHAM15SxPGKMo4147VgSVeT, which received 8,897 SOL from the launcher, also funds 7 of them, again in identical pairs: 5.564945907 SOL to two wallets, 24.007608635 SOL to two, 0.273888142 SOL to two.

Wallets in this network trade almost nothing else: in a sample of recent trades from 7 of them, 24 of 27 buys were in the launcher's own tokens.

The money

How we checked

  • Payments: every payment above is a plain system-program SOL transfer between exactly the two wallets, read from the chain, not only from an indexer.

  • Trades: the timings come from each token's full trade history as Iris reads it, with the signature of each trade.

  • Two wallets that buy in its launch blocks (3UZi…XLJY, 5c5W…KqCd) are left out of the 23: their large transfers to the launcher turned out to be swap routing, not payments.

What we don't know

  • Who controls these wallets. This shows what they did and that the launcher pays them, not who runs them.

  • How many of its 20,543 launches these wallets traded in all: 29 of 59 in our sample.

  • The full count of wallets it funds: we proved 23, there may be more.
