Ethereum ETH/USD co-founder Vitalik Buterin’s latest stand against sh*tcoins hasn’t exactly gone as planned.
What Happened: It looks like his words didn’t carry the weight he was hoping for: instead, he was sent even more of “shitcoins” he was trying to disparage.
In a post on March 9 on the r/Testingtesting62831 subreddit, Buterin described Bite BITE/USD and other sh*tcoins with “no redeeming cultural or moral value” and said it “will probably lose you most of the money you put into them.”
Buterin added, “ I anti-endorse these projects to the greatest extent.”

Soon after making the post, Buterin was sent 250,000 BITE tokens, which are valued at $0.011. This means that this gift was worth $2,750.
Buterin went on a “shitcoin” selling spree on March 7, cashing out over $700,000 worth of tokens — including 3.4 million BITE tokens — for Ether.
Price Action: At the time of writing, BITE was trading at $0.00035, up 1% in the last 24 hours, according to Benzinga Pro.
