Millions of dollars worth of thePEPEmeme coin flooded crypto exchanges Thursday, spooking investors who drove its price down and drawing attention to spooky action in the project's multisig, among the single-largest holders of the joke cryptocurrency.

Over 16 trillion tokens flowed out of the PEPE multisig wallet midday Thursday on its way to addresses associated with Binance, OXK, and Bybit. That action came shortly after on-chain sleuths noted troubling changes to the oversight of how that vault-like wallet handles transaction approvals.

Instead of requiring five of eight wallets to sign off on transactions, it had changed to only two out of eight.

The highly unusual action represented the first time the project's all-important multisig – keeper of much of the token's supply – has ever sent out the meme coin.

PEPE's price plunged after the actions came to light, down 15% as of press time.

Interesting NFTs
Block Chain Dungeon
Once upon a time... a little boy named Leo loved to paint, draw and experiment. He also loved to play with blocks and chains, which drew him again and again into the rooms of his friends Michel and Angelo. Often they also met in virtual rooms of Cryptovoxels, Decentraland, Somnium Space or Sandbox to create new inventions, read books about new technologies, or just swing the brushes. But on this day something gigantic happened. A good friend of Leo came to visit and brought his girlfriend Mona, who wanted a piece of Leo's art on her skin. This was the birth of the NFT's, as Leo developed Non Fungible Tattoos in the Block Chain Dungeon of Michel and Angelo. From that day on people from all over the world came to get NFT's from Leo or one of his students, like "Skeenee the rat", who controls the NFT machine with his laptop. A new age began.
CryptoKitties
*hissing noises*! I'm Kitty #243708. In high school, I was voted biggest teacher's pet. I would give it all up to be on Oprah. We can be friends, but keep the ultra purrsonal stuff to yourself, please.
Fuku-Shiva
The term “Fuku” refers to fortune or good luck. “Shiva” refers to the Hindu deity who represents strongly polar qualities, both severe and delicate. On a beach inspired by adventures on Phi Phi island in Thailand, three youths cavort. Two are representational figures and the third is psychologically rendered. A dynamic relationship ensues between the triad; a reciprocity of active and passive states. The boy on the right engages in maneuvers of evasion, defense, and is dressed in a speedo which reiterates the colors and symbolism of the caution tape on the left and upper right frame of the composition. In concurrent reaction the psychedelic figure shoots out a rocket powered paper airplane. The nude boy seated in the froth and sand approaches in passive repose, and is met with active attention but equal physical reserve by the psychedelic being. Perhaps the most naked figure is also the least representational. Looming large, dynamic, and active, it engages its companions playfully. Various symbols interject into the otherwise naturalistic scene, most notably a beach ball and two contaminated barrels nested in the sand. The upright barrel reads “FukuShima” in Kanji. The barrel laying down reads “Dharma”. To the left the scene is bounded by caution tape, reiterating the danger of the nuclear waste while also hosting alien archetypes, whose presence, as is the nature of these entities, runs up and just behind the consciousness of the psychedelic figure’s eggshell-like skull.
