Vitalik Buterin's recent sale of 5,000 $DHN has led to a 50% drop in the token's value, sparking discussions about Dohrnii’s prospects.

Vitalik Buterin's Sale

According to Spot on Chain, Vitalik Buterin sold 5,000 $DHN for 65.19 $ETH, valued at $124,000, causing a sharp decline in the token’s value. Initially, he received 10,000 $DHN from Dohrnii Labs in January and still holds 5,000 $DHN worth approximately $114,600.

Market Manipulation Concerns

Besides the price crash, analysts have raised concerns about potential manipulation in $DHN's trading activity. Jerry Banfield, a well-known crypto market analyst, views Dohrnii’s trading trends as artificial and warns of potential coordinated price manipulation actions.

Criticism of Learn-to-Earn Model

Dohrnii offers users the opportunity to earn $DHN for learning, but critics argue this model lacks long-term interest. Without user engagement growth, token demand may decrease, leading to further devaluation.

Vitalik Buterin's sale of $DHN led to a significant drop in their value, prompting discussions about Dohrnii's credibility and future stability.
