Elon Musk’s donation to Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska coincided with a sharp rally in the Solana-based IRYNA token, which reached tens of millions in market value.
On September 10, Elon Musk announced a $1 million donation to Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska, who recently survived a stabbing attack. In response, the Solana-based meme coin IRYNA, created in her honor with pledged transaction fees for her family, surged over 180% to a $27 million market cap. The development reflects the influence of humanitarian events and high-profile endorsements on digital asset movements.
