A certain leading exchange's foundation has been making frequent moves recently, continuously deploying into two meme coin projects. Based on the current holdings list, this wave of investment by the foundation is indeed quite interesting—focusing on the first meme coin in the BSC ecosystem that incorporates a charity concept.

But here's an interesting point: why didn't the foundation directly build a position on-chain? It's important to note that this project has a built-in 5% automatic donation mechanism, with every transaction automatically flowing to the charity wallet. From an investment logic perspective, combining spot market support with actual on-chain participation provides a stronger dual endorsement. Could it be that this donation ratio causes the foundation to hold back in their strategic choice? Or perhaps they are being cautious about the project itself?

Regardless, this move reflects a new understanding by the exchange's foundation of the meme coin track—shifting from pure gambling to contributing social value. Will there be more foundation-level forces entering the scene to support such projects in the next step?

The concept of charity + meme coins, this combination is a bit outrageous, it feels like just putting a mask on for rug pulling. Not building on-chain positions is indeed suspicious. Where's the promised double endorsement? Are there concerns or just testing the waters? Is the foundation really starting to talk about social value? I still smell a rat. Speaking of the 5% donation mechanism, can it really be implemented or is it just another empty promise? Anyway, I find it hard to believe. Meme coins are turning into charity. Next, are they going to tell me they can cure diseases and save lives?

actually, the 5% charity mechanism is lowkey the whole plot twist here—funds probably staying off-chain precisely *because* they don't wanna be publicly tied to every single donation flow, right? dual backing sounds good on paper but the optics game hits different when you're a major exchange foundation. tbh feels more like calculated risk management than philosophical hesitation.

Huh, a 5% donation mechanism scared off the big players? I think it's just being timid. Not daring to operate on-chain but still wanting to ride the hype, I know this trick too well. As long as charity coins can make money, don't overthink it, everyone. Is the foundation trying to be a saint and count money at the same time? Wait, this logic isn't flawed—why must everything be fully on-chain? Meme coins with a charity shell, it sounds a bit hardcore. Does this foundation really care about that 5%? I think they care about the other 95%.

Charity-themed meme coin? Haha, these days even memes are starting to do charity work, truly impressive. Not directly building on-chain positions is indeed ridiculous, what are you afraid of? Is the foundation testing the waters or just looking down on it, who knows. Meme coins plus charity equals cutting leeks and whitewashing? I'll just say it straight. A 5% donation ratio sounds like a pretext for money laundering. If such projects really come, I might follow the trend, just see whose endorsement is stronger. Spot holdings plus on-chain double endorsement, politely it's insurance, harshly it's probably fear of a crash.

Charity + meme coin, this combination is really daring. The 5% donation mechanism is quite honest. However, the foundation is hiding in spot trading, which feels a bit like chasing clout... Engaging on-chain and observing spot trading, this show is getting a bit tiring. Where is the promised double endorsement? Wait, is this paving the way for a subsequent surge or do I really have doubts about the project? Can't see through it clearly... Can the charity concept save meme coins? It feels a bit hollow, brother. Are we doing public welfare or doing business? The foundation's move is quite clever. Spot trading is enough; why expose yourself on-chain? Smart people all do this. It feels like the entire industry is thinking about how to package itself for legalization. This wave has indeed taken on a different flavor.

Ha, the foundation is testing the bottom line of charity coins. Not building on-chain positions is actually smarter, to avoid risks. Now meme coins are all about charity, this track has really gone off the rails. The 5% donation mechanism feels like wearing a moral hat on oneself. Will the next foundation follow suit? Worrying. Holding spot positions is enough; on-chain is too complicated, I can't understand this move. Major exchanges' foundations are starting to focus on social value; Web3 is really maturing.
