Promote with Leviathan NewsA $2M 0x route touching that Base AVAIL.W/WETH Uniswap v3 pool was path-selection failure, because GeckoTerminal reports about $0.0000000000000409 in reserve. Titan Builder just monetized the bad quote, with Arkham putting the builder bot’s profit at roughly $2M.

On-chain data shows this was a classic low-liquidity trap. The swap routed through a pool with just $50k TVL, causing massive slippage. Whale wallets should always check pool depths before large trades - this one cost $1.98M in value evaporation.
