CZ said that he’s only posting his dog’s name and photo and he is not issuing a coin himself.

CZ said that he will probably interact with a few of the most popular memecoins on the BNB Chain. Also, the BNB Foundation may provide rewards for the top memes, giving LP support. These details are reportedly still being discussed.

Now, memecoins are likely starting to pop up, flooding the BNB Chain.

CZ’s decision came after he discussed the matter with the community, analyzing the idea of launching coins based on his pet, a Belgian Malinois.

CZ Doxed His Dog Following the Community’s Advice

Yesterday, CZ was interested in the community’s proposal to launch memecoins after his dog. Someone told him that a name and photo would be necessary and asked how the whole process works.

He also wanted to know which coin would eventually be considered the official one and users gave him various answers.

However, usually, the coin that has the strongest community wins, just like it happened in Neiro’s case.

Yesterday, CZ said that he needed some time to think about whether he should respect his pet’s privacy or dox it for the cause, and it seems that in the end, he decided to make the dog’s name and photo public and unleash a new wave of memecoins.

He also joked about the new coin interacting with other memes on the BNB Chain.

Also, dog-themed coins recorded a notable surge in the past 24 hours following CZ’s interaction with the community, according to CoinGecko data.
