Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin recently made headlines after selling six memecoins, accumulating 257.11 ETH, valued at $633,000, in just 50 minutes.
Buterin has a history of selling memecoins for charitable donations, and this time seems to be no different.
The memecoins sold by Buterin include:
– 330K $MSTR, worth $281,000, sold for 114 ETH
– 14M $POPCAT, worth $185,000, sold for 74.98 ETH
– 14B $ITO, worth $90,000, sold for 36.55 ETH
– 1.05M #ETH6900, worth $37,800, sold for 15.37 ETH
– 50.5B $SATO, worth $27,900, sold for 11.34 ETH
– 10B $Milo, worth $11,700, sold for 4.77 ETH
This significant liquidation of memecoins comes amid a week in which Buterin has been selling various meme-based assets, with much of the proceeds expected to be directed toward charitable causes, continuing his long-standing philanthropic efforts.
Meanwhile, on October 11, the Ethereum spot ETF saw a net outflow of $97,100. This contrasts with the increased activity from Buterin and other Ethereum whales, who have been making high-profile trades and transactions in recent weeks.
Buterin’s actions signal not only a shift in his portfolio but also his ongoing dedication to using his wealth for good causes. The crypto community will likely keep a close eye on how these funds are allocated and whether his latest sales will once again benefit charitable organizations. As the memecoin market fluctuates, Buterin’s involvement showcases his influential role in the broader crypto ecosystem, particularly in using crypto assets to support charitable efforts.
