Wintermute Becomes First Meme Market Maker, Adding $ACT to Its Portfolio

Wintermute may have just made history by taking on a prominent role in the market for $ACT, positioning it as the 12th largest memecoin in its holdings.

This move might signal the arrival of the first meme market maker in the cryptocurrency space.

Nine hours ago, the ACT Community transferred a significant 9.48 million ACT tokens—representing 1% of the total supply—to Wintermute. This amount is valued at roughly $5.42 million. The source of this transfer traces back to the community’s allocation of ACT DEV tokens, which totals 19 million tokens or 2% of the entire ACT supply. Initially, these tokens were earmarked as a fee to list ACT on Binance, a charge mentioned by @0xcryptowizard (though it was never actually collected). Now, it seems that part of these funds is being repurposed for market-making activities.

Earlier, ACT DEV bought a massive 126 million ACT tokens using 4 SOL, but the community criticized this action after the tokens were later sold off in large amounts. However, since then, ACT DEV has completed its course by distributing, burning, or selling all of its tokens and successfully executing a community-driven CTO transition.

This latest transfer to Wintermute could mark a new chapter for the ACT ecosystem, potentially fostering greater liquidity and stability for this memecoin as it establishes its place among top holdings.
