{"id":"lab-terminal","title":"LAB Terminal","content":"**LAB Terminal** is a [cryptocurrency](https://iq.wiki/wiki/cryptocurrency) trading platform that provides browser-based, application-based, and Telegram-integrated tools for trading [digital assets](https://iq.wiki/wiki/digital-assets) across [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) networks. It forms part of the broader LAB ecosystem and includes features such as algorithmic trade execution, multichain support, and automated risk-management tools. [\\[2\\]](#cite-id-YVdrffUTf9dD94Ug) \n\n## Overview\n\nLAB Terminal is a [cryptocurrency](https://iq.wiki/wiki/cryptocurrency) trading platform and browser-based trading terminal designed for [digital asset](https://iq.wiki/wiki/digital-assets) trading across multiple [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) networks. The platform includes tools for automated and high-speed trading, trading presets, take-profit and stop-loss settings, and customizable execution features via a browser extension.\n\nLAB Terminal launched as part of the broader LAB ecosystem, which expanded from a single trading platform into a group of products focused on [cryptocurrency](https://iq.wiki/wiki/cryptocurrency) trading infrastructure and user tools. The platform initially supported trading on [Solana](https://iq.wiki/wiki/solana) and [TON](https://iq.wiki/wiki/the-open-network-toncoin), with plans for broader multichain compatibility, including support for additional [EVM](https://iq.wiki/wiki/ethereum-virtual-machine-evm) and non-[EVM](https://iq.wiki/wiki/ethereum-virtual-machine-evm) [blockchains](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain). Its trading system incorporated algorithmic execution features intended to automate trade timing and order placement.\n\nThe platform used a fee structure that charged commissions on trades and also included a referral program with multi-level reward distribution tied to trading activity. LAB Terminal also implemented a points-based participation system tied to a planned LAB token [airdrop](https://iq.wiki/wiki/airdrop), in which users accumulated points based on trading volume and platform usage. [\\[1\\]](#cite-id-SUgyWu4Uj13mNBPy) \n\n### Manipulation Allegations\n\nIn May 2026, LAB faced increased public scrutiny following allegations of market manipulation directed at founder Boba Sadikov by [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) investigator [ZachXBT](https://iq.wiki/wiki/zachxbt). The controversy drew significant attention within the [cryptocurrency](https://iq.wiki/wiki/cryptocurrency) community, particularly after on-chain data showed the transfer of approximately 3.66 million LAB tokens, valued at around $14 million, from a project-associated [multi-signature wallet](https://iq.wiki/wiki/multi-signature-wallet). A portion of the transferred tokens was subsequently moved to additional [smart contract](https://iq.wiki/wiki/smart-contract) addresses, although the purpose of the transactions was not publicly disclosed.\n\nThe combination of the allegations and the large token movements prompted discussion regarding LAB’s governance, token management practices, and transparency. While the events generated speculation about potential market effects and attracted closer examination from market participants, no regulatory findings or formal determinations of wrongdoing had been reported in connection with the allegations at the time. The episode highlighted the growing role of on-chain analysis in monitoring [cryptocurrency](https://iq.wiki/wiki/cryptocurrency) projects and assessing the movement of project-controlled assets. [\\[4\\]](#cite-id-7Vst7EVL4QkbPraV) \n\n## Features\n\nLAB Terminal includes a multichain trading interface, browser extension integration, algorithmic trade execution tools, and risk-management features for [cryptocurrency](https://iq.wiki/wiki/cryptocurrency) traders. The platform supports trading through a browser extension, Telegram-based interface, and standalone application, allowing users to access trading functions across different environments.\n\nLAB Terminal incorporates automated execution features designed to assist with order placement and trade management. These include customizable take-profit and stop-loss orders, adjustable gas and [slippage](https://iq.wiki/wiki/slippage) settings, and trading algorithms designed to optimize execution and reduce [slippage](https://iq.wiki/wiki/slippage). The platform also offers a feature known as Boost Mode, which provides low-latency trade execution, real-time profit-and-loss tracking, immediate order submission, and integration with [Jito](https://iq.wiki/wiki/jito)-based MEV protection on supported networks.\n\nThe platform was initially launched with support for the [Solana](https://iq.wiki/wiki/solana) [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) and outlined plans to expand to additional networks, including [Ethereum](https://iq.wiki/wiki/ethereum) and [Base](https://iq.wiki/wiki/base). Its multichain design aims to allow users to manage trades across multiple [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) ecosystems through a single interface. [\\[6\\]](#cite-id-2b7Y04iCXjEXSDaY) \n\n## Funding\n\nIn September 2025, LAB completed a 15 million in pledged commitments, resulting in a substantially oversubscribed raise relative to its funding cap. Participant applications were reviewed through a process conducted with [Legion](https://iq.wiki/wiki/legion) and Nozomi Network, incorporating on-chain activity and social metrics. The community round followed LAB’s earlier $2.3 million seed financing, which was led by Lemniscap and included participation from investors such as [Animoca Brands](https://iq.wiki/wiki/animoca), [OKX Ventures](https://iq.wiki/wiki/okx), Gate Ventures, [MEXC Ventures](https://iq.wiki/wiki/mexc), [KuCoin Ventures](https://iq.wiki/wiki/kucoin), and several other [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain)-focused investment firms. The funding was announced ahead of the planned launch of the LAB token and was intended to support the continued development of LAB’s multi-chain trading infrastructure and trading terminal products.
