The Unbelievable Crypto Marketing Stunt at WNBA Games
A pseudonymous group behind the Green Dildo Coin ($DILDO) has taken credit for a series of disruptive incidents at WNBA games, where sex toys were thrown onto the court. This bizarre campaign, which started in late July, is part of a coordinated effort to boost the visibility and trading volume of their meme coin.
Key Incidents and Arrests
- The first incident occurred on July 29 during a game between the Atlanta Dream and Golden State Valkyries, where a bright green dildo with the project’s hashtag was thrown onto the court.
- Delbert Carver, 23, was arrested on August 1 for throwing a sex toy at a game between the Atlanta Dream and Phoenix Mercury. He also claimed responsibility for the July 29 incident.
- In Phoenix, Kaden Lopez, 18, was arrested after allegedly throwing a green sex toy into the crowd, hitting a man attending the game with his nine-year-old niece.
The Marketing Strategy Behind the Chaos
The group has been using shock value and provocation to market their token. They’ve been gloating online about the attention their stunts have received, encouraging others to share and repost mentions of their actions to drive more people to buy their token.
During a seven-hour livestream on X Spaces, members of the Green Dildo Coin community mocked the WNBA, referring to players as "a bunch of sweaty lesbians" and joking about the potential for someone to get hit by a toy.
Future Plans and Reactions
The group has brainstormed ideas for future targets, including the Boston Marathon, a Lady Gaga concert, and Wimbledon. Meanwhile, the WNBA has warned that throwing items onto the court poses a safety risk and will result in immediate ejection, a minimum one-year ban, and potential arrest.
Token Performance
Despite the controversy, the token’s 24-hour trading volume is $1.23 million, up 28.5% from the previous day. The coin has gained 193.7% in the past week and is currently priced at $0.0009073.
