Mixed-martial arts champion Conor McGregor launches memecoin

McGregor and the project’s team highlighted the fairness of the sealed-bid auction approach compared to conventional memecoin launches.

Mixed-martial arts (MMA) champion Conor McGregor launched a memecoin called “REAL” on April 5, which will reportedly feature staking rewards and voting rights for token holders.
