Crypto Expert Unveils Why Neiro is the Hottest Ethereum Token Right Now

Neiro Ethereum (NEIRO), a new dog-themed memecoin on the Ethereum network, has captured the attention of crypto enthusiasts after a massive surge of over 1,500% within the past month. 

This rise comes amid a growing buzz on social media platforms. This new addition to the family has sparked a wave of excitement, with a slew of NEIRO-based coins generated on Solana. Notably, one coin reached nearly $100 million in market capitalization. 

One of The Hottest?

Momin Saqib, the co-founder of Web3Pak and Web3Works, contributed to the growing interest in NEIRO through a post on X. Saqib shared his thoughts on why Neiro has become one of the hottest tokens in the Ethereum space. 

He pointed out that, despite being only 16 days old, NEIRO has already garnered significant attention, thanks to its vibrant community and the promising potential for growth. According to Saqib, major centralized exchanges (CEXs) like Bybit and OKX have hinted at potential listings, which could propel NEIRO’s market capitalization even higher. 

He also noted that crypto whales are taking advantage of price dips, leading to increased buying pressure. This wave of enthusiasm led to speculations that NEIRO could be poised for a substantial market surge, especially after Bybit’s potential involvement.

Wintermute and Whales Back Neiro 

Adding to the speculation, according to Whale Insider, crypto market maker Wintermute recently became the largest NEIRO holder, holding 15 million tokens valued at $4 million. Wintermute’s backing has led to speculation that Neiro could follow the success of other memecoins like WIF, which the firm previously supported.

Additionally, Shiba Inu’s recent decision to follow Neiro on X has bolstered its credibility in the crypto community, with users highlighting this as a potential long-term endorsement of the project.

Vitalik Buterin’s Sale Sparks Market Reaction

Recall that Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum, sold a significant portion of Neiro tokens, worth over $112,000, which had been airdropped to him by the original developer. This sale led to an initial dip in NEIRO’s value.

However, Neiro quickly rebounded, with its value rising by 15% shortly after the transaction. In response, the Neiro team clarified that the airdrop was not intended to gain credibility and requested Buterin donate a portion of the proceeds to charity. They also affirmed that the project is now entirely community managed.
