Ah damn, the Swatches public mint was botted. Check out this account on OS. They hold ~200, all of which were insta minted by dummy wallets that then transferred them over. Maybe someone at OpenSea can look into this.

Not sure but the contract had been live due to the non public first phase of the mint, so if it was just a direct contract mint that's just a contract design failure imo.

Don't these bots need to have the mint address ahead of time in order to connect their api's to mint? How did they get it so fast?

I only ask because a couple years ago this happened on mints I was involved with on polygon, turned out someone on the team took advantage of having that address before the mint.

should be obv but nothing i say is financial advice. i have no idea what i’m doing or how i got here, probably added by a third party 

Maybe they have a way to change their mint process/contracts to prevent the way these were minted. Or take some sort of action on the account itself.

look at what tho? i mean how r u supposed to prevent this?
