A bizarre WNBA halftime show turned into viral chaos—and it was all a calculated crypto ploy. The stunt, which involved spectators hurling adult toys onto the court, was later revealed as a guerrilla marketing campaign for an obscure memecoin.

Sports meets Web3 spectacle

While players and officials scrambled to clear the court, crypto Twitter lit up with footage of the incident. The coin's anonymous dev team later claimed responsibility, boasting a 300% price pump post-controversy—because nothing says 'sound investment' like tying your token to sex toys and semi-professional basketball.

Regulators yawn, degens cheer

No fines were issued (shocking, said no SEC official ever). Meanwhile, the token's liquidity pool magically evaporated 48 hours later—leaving bagholders with nothing but NSFW memories and the cold comfort of 'community building'.

In their Telegram group, members have also brainstormed ideas for future attacks. Proposed targets include the Boston Marathon, a Lady Gaga concert and Wimbledon.

According to CoinGecko, 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.

Green Dildo Coin did not respond to a request for an interview via X.

The WNBA did not immediately respond to a request for comment but has warned that throwing items onto the court can pose a safety risk for players, game officials and fans.

"In line with WNBA Arena Security Standards, any fan who intentionally throws an object onto the court will be immediately ejected and face a minimum one-year ban in addition to being subject to arrest and prosecution by local authorities,” it said in a statement.
