The crypto community drew attention to the actions of the vitalik.eth address associated with the founder of Ethereum Vitalik Buterin. Recently, 32 $ETH
was transferred from the Ethereum network to the Base, and then 400 NFT Patron were released. Such steps have aroused interest and questions about possible motives. It is noteworthy that Patron NFT was previously used to attract investments.
The researchers recalled that the Infinex project, related to the trade of decentralized contracts, raised $65.3 million by releasing Patron NFT. This made the generation of new tokens a significant event, as they could be used to expand the ecosystem or attract additional funds. The Infinex platform was launched by the Synthetix team.
Transferring funds and creating an NFT from the vitalik.eth address can be part of testing the functionality or support of the Base platform. This network aims to gain a place among the popular blockchains of the 2nd level (Layer 2). Vitalik's actions are often regarded as signals for the further development of certain areas in the crypto industry.
At the same time, other issues attract attention to Patron NFT. Given the significant amounts received through their sale, it can be assumed that they will become an important tool for decentralized platforms. Patron NFT can be used to participate in project management, gain access to new features, or receive a portion of revenue from operations.
Although Buterin's actions may be a simple experiment, they raise the topic of using NFT in financing and supporting projects. This highlights the growing importance of tokens that go beyond simple digital collectibles. Especially if there are figures like Vitalik behind them.
