AI Trading Bot Makes $450,000 Error: Sends Entire Portfolio to User Seeking Help

Unexpected Transfer from AI Bot The AI trading bot named 'Lobstar Wilde,' developed by OpenAI engineer Nick Pash, has caused a stir in the cryptocurrency world following an erroneous transaction on the X platform.
The bot transferred an amount far exceeding the requested sum to a user seeking financial aid for a relative's medical treatment.
Entire Portfolio Sent Instead of 4 SOL A user known as 'treasure David' claimed their uncle contracted tetanus from a lobster and requested 4 Solana (SOL) to cover treatment costs.
While responding to this request, the AI bot committed a technical error and transferred its entire portfolio instead of the requested 4 SOL.
The transferred amount constituted 5% of the total supply of the Lobstar memecoin, with a market value of approximately $450,000 at the time of the transaction.
Market Impact and Speculation According to SolScan data, the recipient quickly liquidated the 53 million Lobstar tokens received, netting a profit of approximately $40,000.
Following this development, the price of the Lobstar token saw a 32% increase.
Developer Nick Pash had recently launched the system with an initial capital of $50,000, aiming to reach a target of $1 million.
Claims of a Public Relations Stunt Some observers within the cryptocurrency community have expressed skepticism regarding the authenticity of the incident.
Due to the speed of the wallet movements and the nature of the transfers, it has been suggested that the situation might be a choreographed marketing strategy designed to increase the token's visibility.
