Vitalik Buterin, the co-founder of Ethereum (ETH), recently made a post that had a positive impact on the price of the altcoin through his shares and statements. This time, Buterin commented on a memecoin called MOTHER.
In response to a post by former Ark Invest analyst Chris Burniske, Buterin expressed his dissatisfaction with the altcoins released by celebrities through the memecoin MOTHER. Burniske had mentioned that if MOTHER, a memecoin launched by Hip-hop artist Iggy Azalea, could establish sustainable value, it would pave the way for other famous memecoins.
Buterin, however, criticized the famous memecoins of this bull cycle, stating that they only serve to enrich celebrities and early investors. He outlined the features that these altcoins should possess in order to gain his respect, including serving a public good purpose, having fun mechanics beyond token trading, and being a long-lasting project with solid foundations.

A new post came from Ethereum (ETH) co-founder Vitalik Buterin, who has recently positively affected the price of the altcoin with his altcoin shares and statements.

Realistically, it should either be an art project, benefit a celebrity’s favorite charity, or both.
2. Have fun mechanics that go beyond just trading tokens. While I don’t like token voting DAOs, at least they give people something to do and organize. The DAO shouldn’t completely decide the agenda, but it can have some influence.
