Crypto group resumes harassment of WNBA players with sex toys and memecoins

Crypto memecoin promoters return to WNBA harassment

A group of self-described "crypto entrepreneurs" has resumed throwing sex toys onto WNBA basketball courts during games. This follows a similar stunt last year that was used to promote a memecoin called Green Dildo.

The group created the memecoin, sold related NFTs (digital collectibles stored on a blockchain), and even set up betting markets where people could wager on when the next harassment incident would occur. They claimed their actions were meant to support the WNBA, but these claims were widely dismissed.

What the group did last year

• Threw green sex toys onto WNBA courts during games.
• Created a memecoin called Green Dildo to promote the stunt.
• Offered 1,000 NFTs, but over half remain unsold.
• Set up prediction markets where people could bet on future incidents.
• Claimed they were supporting the WNBA, but the attention quickly faded.

Current status of the memecoin and NFTs

More than 80% of the Green Dildo memecoin is still controlled by just seven digital wallets. The group’s merchandise website is no longer active, and most of their NFTs remain unsold.

New harassment linked to anti-trans protests

This season, the group has continued throwing sex toys at WNBA games but has failed to generate renewed interest in their memecoin. They have now shifted their messaging, claiming to support anti-trans protests against the WNBA.

The sources note that no transgender athletes currently play in the WNBA, nor have any ever played in the league.

Legal consequences for harassers

Some individuals involved in throwing sex toys at games have been arrested and banned indefinitely from attending WNBA and NBA games. The frequency of these incidents appears to be decreasing compared to last year.

What is confirmed

• The group threw sex toys at WNBA games last year to promote a memecoin.
• Over 80% of the Green Dildo memecoin is controlled by seven wallets.
• More than half of the group’s NFTs remain unsold.
• Some individuals involved in the stunts have been arrested and banned from games.
• The group is now linking their actions to anti-trans protests, despite no transgender athletes in the WNBA.

What is still unclear

• Whether the group will continue these stunts or if legal consequences will further reduce their frequency.
• The exact financial impact of the memecoin and NFT sales on the group or investors.

Why this matters

The incidents highlight how some crypto projects use controversial stunts to gain attention. The harassment of WNBA players has led to legal consequences for those involved, and the group’s shifting claims show how such projects may adapt their messaging to stay relevant.
