Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has sold several meme coins, generating approximately $636,000. Buterin received these coins without solicitation and sold them as part of his policy to sell or donate unsolicited tokens. This has sparked discussion in the crypto community about the risks posed by meme coins and their potential to mislead investors. Buterin sold various meme coins, including MSTR, POPCAT, ITO, ETH6900, SATO, and Milo. Critics argue that his recognition of certain meme tokens could have unintended consequences, while others are concerned that endorsements may lend legitimacy to potentially unsafe projects. Some figures in the crypto community have voiced concerns about the risks associated with meme coins, particularly the potential for insiders to benefit and smaller investors to be at risk. Transparency and thorough vetting of projects before endorsements are important, according to these critics.
