Vitalik Buterin, the renowned co-founder of Ethereum, has recently made headlines with a significant transaction on the decentralized platform Uniswap. This involved two memecoins he received unsolicited, named “I love puppies” (PUPPIES) and an ERC20 token. Buterin converted these assets into Ethereum (ETH) and USDC, netting approximately $114,700, and causing a noticeable stir in the memecoin segment.
