Memecoin Group Linked To Sex Toys Thrown At WNBA Games

Memecoin Group Linked To Sex Toys Thrown At WNBA Games
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on LInkedIn


Two men have reportedly been arrested for allegedly throwing sex toys during Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) games, a controversial prank which a memecoin group has taken responsibility for.

Five incidents of sex toys, mainly green in color, being thrown onto the court during WNBA matches have occurred in the past two weeks, the last of which occurred on Thursday in Chicago.

Speaking to USA Today on Thursday, a spokesperson for the group behind the recently launched Green Dildo Coin (DILDO) memecoin, who goes by Daldo Raine on X, said he and other crypto enthusiasts were behind the stunts.

The stunts have drawn criticism from WNBA players and coaches, as the already polarizing and niche memecoin culture looks to make their bets stand out by any means in a crowded market that’s recently struggled to maintain steam.

Daldo Raine said the token was created as a lighthearted protest against what he described as a toxic environment dominated by influencers and scammers within the memecoin space.

“We knew that in order to get a voice in the space … we had to go out and do some viral stunts to save us from having to pay that influencer cabal,” he said. “We wanna shift the culture in crypto, and we wanna be the 1,000 against the one.”

To help the project stand out, he said the dildos are green as a homage to the crypto slang for when upward price action on trading charts shows a green bar, while also being an attempt to spark curiosity from onlookers. 

He suggested the memecoin group would pivot toward lighter and “more tasteful” pranks to continue gaining attention.

Two alleged sex toy throwers arrested

Two men, Kaden Lopez and Delbert Carver, have been arrested for allegedly taking part in the sex toy throwing stunts — though Daldo Raine told USA Today that neither of the men are part of the memecoin’s group.

FOX 10 Phoenix reported on Wednesday, citing court documents, that the 18-year-old Lopez told police he saw the viral trend on social media and purchased a sex toy to participate.

USA Today reported that Carver was arrested in Georgia on Saturday, with authorities accusing him of throwing a sex toy onto a basketball court in Atlanta.

He reportedly faces charges related to disorderly conduct, public indecency and criminal trespass.

WNBA expresses outrage

The stunts have drawn sharp criticism from WNBA players and coaches, who said the stunts pose a safety risk and show a lack of respect for the game. 

“It’s ridiculous, it’s dumb, it’s stupid,” Los Angeles Sparks coach Lynne Roberts said after an incident at the Crypto.com arena on Tuesday.

According to the WNBA’s code of conduct page, any fan caught throwing objects onto the court is to be tossed from the stadium and may face possible criminal charges.

Daldo Raine reportedly shrugged off suggestions that the stunt was meant as a sign of disrespect toward the women athletes — though others insist the stunt has misogynistic roots.

Similar pranks have cropped up in other sports, including a 2018 National Football League game between the New England Patriots and Buffalo Bills, when a sex toy landed in the end zone.

Memecoin market down from peak

The memecoin market is currently at a market cap of $70.6 billion, down nearly 45% from its $127.26 billion peak on Dec. 6, according to CoinMarketCap data.

Pump.fun, the largest launchpad in the memecoin industry, has seen revenue plunge 80% from its January peak to just $24.96 million in July, marking its worst month of 2025.
