Fresh Wallet Breathes Life into Dead Token $OPAIUM, Sends Market into Frenzy

This week in the memecoin world , a newly made wallet on Stalkchain’s Fresh Wallet Feed surprised everyone after purchasing over 21.4% of the total supply of a previously forgotten token — $OPAIUM. Once thought to be lifeless, $OPAIUM has now, in a complete turnaround, gone from being obscure to having a market cap of $9.3 million within 24 hours. What started as a solitary, improbable $96,250 wager has evolved into a memecoin market study. And just when Ethereum’s next big experiment seemed all but finished, it came roaring back to life, with countless opportunities to cash in—for those who got in first. The $96K Gamble That Reanimated a Ghost Coin The drama started yesterday when a completely new wallet, flagged by Stalkchain’s Fresh Wallet Feed, made a bold move to purchase 21.4% of the total token supply of $OPAIUM. The total cost? Just under $100,000. That buy was aggressive enough to instantly make the nearly lifeless token come to life, giving it a market cap rocketing to $2.1 million in a matter of minutes. The price, however, could not maintain such a quick surge. With little liquidity and holders potentially looking to sell, the cap of $OPAIUM corrected fast, falling to $800,000 just hours later. The market moves in mysterious ways… Yesterday, we spotted a fresh wallet on Stalkchain’s Fresh Wallet Feed buying 21.4% of the total supply of $OPAIUM — a dead token — for $96.25K. That buy alone pumped the market cap to $2.1M, but it quickly dumped back down to $800K. Fast… pic.twitter.com/bwssVjrWTP — Stalkchain (@StalkHQ) April 23, 2025 The rollercoaster was just starting. Even after such a sharp drop, momentum found its way back into this token. Opportunistic traders and even some revival play bots could not resist picking this one up. Thanks to those semi-dumb money bots and traders, $OPAIUM exploded again. Today, the price has reached a jaw-dropping virtual $9.3 million market cap for this token. The original purchaser, now with more than 20% of the supply, has seen their position explode to an estimated $1.8 million in unrealized gains. While their initial $96,000 buy sparked the pump, the market’s reaction has made the wallet a major force in the token’s ecosystem — for better or worse. Old Holders Wake Up… and Exit The other side of bringing a dead token back to life is having to deal with the apparitions of previous holders. When the price of $OPAIUM shot up, some early adopters — who were probably holding it since its original run — seized the moment to cash out and satisfy their return requirements. Statistics reveal that two dormant wallets, for example, were responsible for unloading a total of $91,400 in tokens as soon as the market cap hit $10 million. These sellers, thought to be inactive for months, suddenly surfaced to capitalize on the new liquidity provided by the fresh whale, a revival in the market. Actions like these, seen in the past, raise a classic problem with revivals: that while the new community may be enthusiastic, and a much better chance exists for a forthcoming bull run, the presence of old holders with large amounts of tokens can pretty much guarantee that the revival will be a fake-out. Even with all the selling, the whale’s haven’t moved their coins. They still hold over 20% of the supply, with no signs of distribution. And their paper profits are all the more reason to suspect them of earning for peace. The downside of reviving a dead token? Old holders waiting to dump on you. Since $OPAIUM pumped to a $10M mcap, over $91.4K has been sold by 2 old wallets. The wild part? The wallet that pumped it holds 20%+ of supply — and it’s still in profit. https://t.co/WKbfmiUR1g pic.twitter.com/qkScflUzfK — Stalkchain (@StalkHQ) April 23, 2025 A New Era for $OPAIUM — Or Just a Flash in the Pan? Reviving $OPAIUM is a captivating story in today’s memecoin world, where the new token investors often treat pre-existing tokens as temporary playgrounds for enthusiastic money-making. What makes the $OPAIUM revival especially significant is that it illustrates, in a very real-world example, all the reasons why speculative plays of this sort can end badly. Those reasons are now about to be laid out. Currently, $OPAIUM enjoys the high it’s on from hype, speculation, and momentum. But can it keep that going? Well, it seems likely that whether it can keep that going will depend on three interrelated factors: 1. New buyers continuing to absorb supply. 2. Major wallet plays and what story they tell next. 3. Community engagement and the sort of meme or narrative traction the token can build. Right now, the buyer at $96K is still very much in the money. But with the whole market paying attention, the issue isn’t solely “how high can it go?” but also “how fast could it come down?” Regardless, $OPAIUM just put on a masterclass of memecoin disorder, where an old token, left for dead, suddenly became a million-dollar narrative.
