Someone who buys a token across many wallets in one transaction bundle at launch.

Bundling means submitting the deploy and a batch of buys together so they execute in the same block, spread across dozens of wallets. It disguises concentration: instead of one wallet holding forty percent, forty wallets hold one percent each and the distribution looks healthy.

This is one of the most common ways holder counts and supply charts are made to look better than they are. Tools that trace funding sources can usually spot it, because the wallets are typically funded from the same place minutes before.

A holder list that looks evenly spread but was created in a single block is a warning, not a reassurance.

In practice

Fifty fresh wallets, all funded from one address, all buying in the launch block, all controlled by the deployer.

What people get wrong

That bundled buying is a sign of demand. It is one person buying their own launch across dozens of wallets so the holder count and the early chart look organic. The supply concentrated that way is the supply that gets sold into you.

Common questions

How do I spot a bundled launch?
Look at the first block. If dozens of wallets bought in the same transaction or the same instant, one person owns that supply no matter how many addresses are holding it.
Why does bundling matter to me?
Because the holder count looks healthy while the float is controlled by a single seller. That seller decides the price at which you get to exit.
