Mira, a four-year-old girl who is battling a rare brain tumor and has incredible strength, has touched the hearts of the cryptocurrency community. To support Mira and her ongoing fight, a crypto trader created a Solana token named in her honor, the market value of which surpassed $80 million just five hours after launch.
Mira, also known as Mira Chen, is the CEO and co-founder of the company. She is the youngest daughter of company founder Siki Chen. She was diagnosed with a #rare brain tumor - adhesive craniopharyngioma - in late September, before her second birthday, Siki said in an earlier post.
the crypto community enthusiastically supported Mira's story. #Cryptocurrency users donated funds to #Solana and Siki's Bitcoin addresses.
Siki revealed on December 25 that a "random" crypto trader created the MIRA #token and sent him half of the total amount.
"It's worth about $400,000 right now. I literally don't know what to do because it's worth so much, and I definitely don't want to mess with a bunch of random people, Sichi said.
Sichi sold a 10 percent stake equivalent to 5 percent of the total tokens, raised about $49,200 and donated it to the Hankinson Lab at the University of Colorado. According to him, he decided to do just that. The lab, headed by Dr. Todd Hankinson, is the only research center in North America that specializes in studying this type of tumor.
As a result of working with the community, Siki announced that it will liquidate another 10% stake. The proceeds will also be donated to the institute.
"I'm liquidating 50 million shares because this poll won. For the next 24 hours, I will take no further action, Siki said, adding that he will sell a small portion of his shares every day to gradually get rid of them and prevent the price from plummeting. If I sell one percent each day, I can sell nothing until tomorrow,'' he said.
