Pons's creator-chosen tax waivers let one crew net $15.5 million from 56 Robinhood Chain launches

Bitquery tied 56 Robinhood Chain memecoin launches to one crew that netted about $15.5 million through wallets exempt from the Pons launchpad's snipe tax. Another 467 clusters ran the same play for a possible $11.6 million, so the weakness is in the venue's rules even though most of the money went to one group.
