Vitalik Buterin Liquidates NEIRO and Memecoin Positions To Fund Donations to His Charity

Ethereum ( ETH ) co-creator Vitalik Buterin is suddenly selling off dozens of digital assets, including Neiro ( NEIRO ) and other memecoins.

According to market analytics platform Arkham Intelligence, Buterin has sold Dogecoin ( DOGE ) and a number of other smaller market cap, lesser-known digital assets on Monday.

Pseudonymous on-chain analyst EmberCN provides a list of the Buterin sales on the social media platform X identifying 28 memecoins that sold for nearly $1 million in total

The sales include 70 million Neiro for $74,095, and 92,000 DOGE for $35,233.

The on-chain analyst says it appears Buterin is consolidating his holdings to send donations to his charity Kanro.

Kanro is a biotech charity originally set up by Buterin to address COVID-19 and other pandemic-related issues.

Says EmberCN,

“[Buterin] is selling memecoins donated to his wallet regularly again: “[On Monday], he sold a total of 28 memecoins for 984,000 USDC, and then donated the USDC to the Kanro address address…

Some tokens have experienced a sharp decline due to their small market capitalization and poor pool depth. For example, DINU fell by 68% and SHIB fell by 38%.”

This isn’t the first time Buterin was spotted selling his digital assets to fund Kanro.

In October, blockchain reporter Colin Wu spotted Buterin selling about $340,000 of meme coins in half an hour.
