ANSEM Token Price Soars on Airdrop, Market Manipulation Fears Emerge

The ANSEM token price surged by 13.9% in the past 24 hours, reaching $0.1284 after an airdrop of 67.38 million tokens worth close to $9.43 million.

Ansem, a crypto influencer connected to the memecoin, sent out the airdrops on June 27-29, 2026, moving tokens to more than 700 wallets in total.

Out of those wallets, 52.8% have not sold a single coin, while 26.6% sold everything they received from the airdrop.

Rugcheck.xyz has flagged ANSEM market manipulation risk due to a large concentration of tokens in one or more unidentified wallets, with nearly 74% of the entire airdrop going to just 7 wallets out of the 704 that received a share.
