Vitalik Buterin, the creator of Ethereum, has urged creators of memecoins to send their tokens to charity instead of filling up his wallet. While he appreciates memecoins that donate to charity, Buterin prefers direct donations. He suggested memecoin communities create DAOs to involve members in deciding how donations are handled. Buterin recently sold a large amount of meme tokens, including MOODENG, NEIRO, DEGEN, and KABOSU, for around $341,000. He also donated ETH to support the "Free Alexey & Roman" campaign. Buterin has criticized tokens that use famous names without offering value, emphasizing the importance of Ethereum's positive social impact.
