EMBER clarifies token distribution after Bubblemaps analysis. Bonk Guy refutes claims of "over 50% of the supply controlled by a single internal cluster." Bubblemaps' analysis, which showed concentration, reportedly resulted from EMBER's flywheel mechanism using external owned accounts (EOAs) for distribution instead of smart contracts. A single EOA transferring tokens to multiple wallets led Bubblemaps to group these as a single network. Bubblemaps suggested replacing the EOA with a smart contract. Bonk Guy hopes developers adopt this and denies affiliation with the alleged cluster. The misinterpretation stems from EMBER's unique EOA distribution method. #crypto #blockchain #news
