Former Brazilian footballer Ronaldinho Gaúcho has officially launched his STAR10 token on the Binance Smart Chain.

The launch came shortly after the footballer warned about fake meme coins using his name. He clarified that he had no official tokens yet and hinted at upcoming big news for the community.

Ronaldinho Launches STAR10

Announced via his official X (formerly Twitter) account, Ronaldinho described STAR10 as more than just a token. He referred to it as a “legacy in the making.”

“My new one and only official token is here! It’s time to celebrate greatness, passion, and that legendary spirit that never fades,” he posted.

According to the website, STAR10 offers exclusive experiences, including signed collectibles, real-world benefits, community competitions, and access to dedicated artificial intelligence (AI)- powered insights

Beyond collectibles, STAR10 grants VIP experiences like meet-and-greets with Ronaldinho, behind-the-scenes access, and private events. Holders also get priority access to special drops, digital assets, and upcoming initiatives.

“While most meme coins come and go, STAR10 was designed with a long-term vision, offering real value beyond the digital world,” the website noted.

The total supply of the token is 1,000,000,000, distributed as follows: 25% for liquidity, 20% for public distribution, 20% for Ronaldinho, 15% for marketing and operations, 15% for the team, and 5% for centralized exchange (CEX) allocation.

Following its launch, STAR10 saw a rapid surge in market capitalization, reaching an impressive $300 million. However, the initial hype was short-lived, as its valuation quickly dropped to $200 million within hours.

As of the latest update, STAR10 was priced at $0.23, with $17.9 million in liquidity. Its market capitalization stood at $238.6

Meanwhile, the excitement around STAR10 has turned into scrutiny as on-chain data revealed alleged signs of insider trading. According to Onchain Lens, an insider closely linked to Ronaldinho made an astonishing $4.94 million profit.

The individual initially bought 20.79 million STAR10 with 48 BNB ($29,247) and quickly sold a fraction—119,278 tokens—for 54 BNB ($33,106), securing an immediate gain.

However, the bulk of their holdings—20.68 million tokens—now hold an estimated value of $4.93 million. The revelation has raised concerns over potential manipulation.

In addition, the community’s reaction has been largely cautious and skeptical, with many warning of an impending rug pull.

“Here we go again, if you remember MELANIA, CAR, LIBRA you know what I mean,” one user wrote.

This skepticism stems from the track record of recent crypto scams involving newly launched meme coins. Furthermore, Ronaldinho’s history with crypto controversies, including his alleged connection to the “18kRonaldinho” scam—an accusation he has denied—adds to the unease. These factors only deepen the distrust surrounding the STAR10 token launch.
