ZachXBT Donates $41K from Memecoin Airdrops to Venezuela Relief

• Liquidates unsolicited memecoins, donates $41,000 proceeds in real time
• Recipients: Venezuela earthquake charities; all transactions publicly verified

On July 6, 2026, Cryptopolitan reported that prominent on-chain investigator ZachXBT sold $41,000 worth of unsolicited memecoins sent to his wallet and immediately donated the funds to earthquake relief efforts in Venezuela. Multiple tokens using ZachXBT’s name and likeness had been launched across Ethereum and Solana without his consent. He liquidated every unauthorized token received, with the full proceeds directed to Venezuelan relief charities.

During the prior week, several memecoins surfaced on Ethereum and Solana using ZachXBT’s identity. ZachXBT publicly disavowed any connection or endorsement, stating that these tokens were sent without his authorization and he had not promoted any memecoin bearing his name.

On-chain transaction records confirm his actions in detail. One transaction shows a donation of 153 SOL, valued at approximately $11,000, while additional payments totaling $25,000 and $5,000 were routed to charity partners GiveDirectly and Direct Relief via The Giving Block. ZachXBT provided public receipts for each transaction, confirming comprehensive transparency.

This approach mirrors that of Ethereum cofounder Vitalik Buterin, who has also routinely sold and donated unsolicited airdropped tokens in recent years. Both have emphasized that unsolicited drops to high-profile wallets do not signal project legitimacy and criticized the practice as unauthorized promotion, as cited in Cryptopolitan’s January and April 2026 coverage.

All actions were fully documented through public wallet transactions and ZachXBT’s posts on X and Telegram. The process of selling and donating the airdropped tokens was openly disclosed to ensure full accountability.
