Binance founder Changpeng Zhao burned over $3.5M worth of memecoins sent to his wallet by developers attempting to gain free promotion without impacting the market.
The burns included $1.95M in Tutorial tokens and $1.65M in Broccoli-themed tokens inspired by Zhao's dog, fueled by meme-driven hype on BNB Chain.
Zhao urged the crypto community to stop sending tokens to his address while maintaining credibility and stability in the market despite a potential personal gain opportunity.
The move was aimed at avoiding market impact and showcasing Zhao's commitment to the crypto market's credibility and stability.
