Week 22, 2026: $32,459,995 extracted from retail investors on PancakeSwap V2 – virtually unchanged from Week 21’s $32,422,973 (+0.1%). Two consecutive weeks at the same extraction level signals a plateau. The $32.5M floor is not a recovery – it is the baseline the rug pull industry sustains between cycles. Running 22-week total: $634.8M.
