FBB4 Buys Infamous GameStop Stapler for $250K, Turning Meme History into Crypto Lore
In a move only the enigmatic FBB4 could pull off, the anonymous trader and cultural collector has revealed himself as the winning bidder for GameStop’s most infamous office accessory… the stapler that punctured a Nintendo Switch box after an employee decided to tack the receipt directly onto it before shipping.
The sale, which included the damaged console and Ryan Cohen’s underwear, hammered in at a jaw-dropping $250,000. To most, it’s an overpriced piece of plastic with a strange backstory, but to FBB4, it’s a tangible symbol of the chaotic, community-fueled energy that defined the GameStop saga of 2021… when memes and markets first collided in spectacular fashion.
That same energy drives one of FBB4’s largest conviction plays: $GME ETH, the memecoin born from the spirit of the original short squeeze that rattled Wall Street. Like the stapler, $GME ETH is more than its surface value. It’s a statement of rebellion, humor, and conviction against the odds. And it’s decentralized, and so it’s wholly owned by the people.
True to form, FBB4 doesn’t intend to stash the stapler away. Sources say it will be displayed as a piece of modern financial folklore, a reminder that memes, and those bold enough to act on them, can still move markets in an enormous way.

Liquidation Station 😱
Interested in how much has been flushed out of leveraged long and short positions? Who’s getting hurt the most? This is the best place to get an idea of how leveraged positions are doing. 🔴
30-day Total Liquidations 📆
What You’re Looking At
Green bars above zero = longs blown out because price fell.
Red bars below zero = shorts blown out because price ripped.
Left-hand scale is U.S. dollars (millions); the dashed line near the top sits at $1B.
July 9 - biggest short wipe of the window, $1.0B.
July 17 - long flush, $500–600M.
July 20 to July 23 - steady long liquidations build, $100–300M/day, then a larger pop near July 23.
July 31 - another major long purge, $900M.
August 6 - shorts take a hit again, $300–400M.
August 7–August 8 - shorts remain elevated, $150–250M/day.
7-day Liquidation Heat Map 🌡️
What You’re Looking At
Rows = coins, columns = timestamps.
Color = head-count of forced liquidations (legend tops at 2,000).
A cell showing “BTC 1,600” means 1,600 separate BTC positions were liquidated.
August 3 (early U.S. hours) - BTC and ETH run yellow to orange repeatedly, approaching the 2,000 cap. SOL and XRP follow one notch cooler.
August 4 – August 5 - majors stay hot with multiple yellow bands; alts echo in pockets.
August 6 – August 7 - second wave of stress across BTC and ETH, again yellow to orange; most L1s and memes trail by 1–3 hours.
Lower-gear names (NEAR, APT, TAO, WLD, 1000BONK) hug blue/green. Little leverage, little drama.
Some Interesting Insights 👓️
Symmetric pain - Shorts took the biggest single-day hit on July 9. Longs owned late July, especially July 31. Shorts popped back August 6 – August 8.
Crowd size still rising - Multiple yellow to orange stretches this week put majors near the 2,000/hour cap more than once.
Same rule still prints - Any day >$600M in total liquidations or any hour >1,500 head-count usually precedes a hard counter-move inside 24–48 hours.
Process - Watch BTC and ETH on the heatmap first. Trim alt exposure the moment those rows turn yellow.
