Key Points:
A relatively unknown memecoin, Neiro, transferred 17.1 billion Neiros—4% of the total supply—to Vitalik’s address. It was a strategic move to hype up Vitalik as the highest holder and to use his high profile to increase the coin’s credibility, hence the attractiveness, in the cryptocurrency community.

It backfired when Vitalik sold 17.1 billion memecoin Neiro in exchange for 44.4 ETH. In a flash, sell-offs occurred, and Neiro’s price dropped drastically by 60%, panicking all investors and holders of the coin. The price collapse further highlighted the risks associated with meme coins, which are highly volatile and susceptible to market manipulations.
There may be a few meme coins bearing the name Neiro across the cryptocurrency market, but one pegged to this event is the Neiro that Vitalik sold.
