Cryptocurrencies also have a warm side! Yesterday, the meme coin MIRA's market value surpassed 80 million USD within 4 hours of its creation. What happened? (Background: 2024 Crypto Narrative Rankings: Meme Coins Reign, AI, RWA, and Solana Ecosystem Rise) (Additional Background: Meme coin trading is not just PVP; 'mining' can also be a good option) In this bull market, aside from Bitcoin, another major focus of the market is the meme coins filled with wealth creation myths. However, various chaotic phenomena have frequently emerged. Besides the project team's rug pulls, the inappropriate content like pornography and abuse that appeared during the Pump.fun livestream have generated great disgust from both insiders and outsiders. Even Binance founder Zhao Changpeng previously tweeted, "The current meme coins are starting to get a bit strange." The meme coin MIRA, born for charity, exhibited a warm side of the crypto world during this week's Christmas holiday, attracting investor attention. The incident began when Siqi Chen, founder of the financial analysis platform Runway, posted information on X in September about his daughter Mira being diagnosed with a brain tumor. Although the tumor is benign, its location in a critical area of the brain could cause significant harm if not handled carefully. Since there is currently no complete cure for such tumors, and researching this rare disease requires substantial financial support, Siqi began calling on the community to donate to the only lab in the world studying this brain tumor, the Hankinson Laboratory. The crypto community also began to respond. An X user named Waddles created a meme coin named after Mira on Solana yesterday (26th) and donated 50% of the supply directly to Siqi. Waddles stated: "When I saw Mira's story and her condition, I thought sending MIRA to Siqi during Christmas would be a good way for the Solana community to support you. I really hope that through this way, I can help treat Mira and children with similar diseases as Mira." MIRA skyrocketed, and the community supported the selling of coins. As a result, after the incident fermented in the community, the MIRA token quickly gained market recognition after its launch at 10:00 on December 26, with its market value once surging to 80 million USD within 4 hours. After receiving these funds, Siqi promised online that he would not use them for himself. He stated that he would sell 1% of the tokens daily but would donate all the proceeds to relevant research institutions and charities, treating it as a charitable endeavor, and the community rarely agreed to his selling actions. Although by the time of writing, it has already fallen back to 23 million USD, MIRA achieved a tenfold increase in less than 24 hours since its creation, making it a rare warm story in the crypto world. However, it is important to note that due to the immense popularity brought by MIRA, multiple meme coins related to Mira and Siqi have appeared in the current market, none of which have been acknowledged by them personally, and investors should be cautious about the risks. Additionally, meme coins themselves are extremely volatile, and investors hoping to make a profit should also remain prudent.
