Crypto Maverick Throws Sex Toys at WNBA Games in Bizarre Meme Coin Stunt

The Blockchain State Team

While cryptocurrency enthusiasts are known for their unorthodox marketing tactics, one group has taken guerrilla promotion to disturbing new heights. A self-described collective of crypto promoters has claimed responsibility for tossing sex toys onto courts at multiple WNBA games during a 10-day period. Nothing says “invest in our coin” quite like hurling adult toys at sporting events.

The stunts, according to the group, were coordinated marketing efforts for a newly created meme coin. Their spokesperson, operating under the alias “Lt. Daldo Raine” (yes, really), conducted interviews with their camera off. They chose the WNBA specifically to capitalize on existing controversy and trending attention. Unlike legitimate crypto protocols like decentralized lending platforms, these promotional tactics serve no practical financial purpose. How thoughtful of them.

Exploiting controversy for crypto promotion—nothing says “invest in our coin” like hurling sex toys at women’s basketball games.

Court records detail at least one incident where a green sex toy was pulled from a sweatshirt pocket and thrown onto the court. The object struck two spectators, including a minor. The person with surname Lopez identified in court documents may face serious consequences. Throwing objects at strangers isn’t just rude – it’s potentially criminal.

These disruptions occurred across at least three games within a 10-day span before August 8, 2025. The timing aligned perfectly with their online promotion efforts. What a coincidence.

The WNBA has acknowledged an investigation into claims that individuals were incentivized to commit these stunts. WNBPA executive director Terri Jackson confirmed seeking details from the league, which has been tight-lipped about security protocol changes.

The group’s stated goal? Reclaiming the “creative” and community aspects of crypto and making memes “funny again.” Because nothing says hilarious like disrupting professional athletes and endangering spectators. The group has amassed over 1,000 users in its Telegram community where members celebrate their disruptive stunts.

USA Today first reported the group’s claims while the league has declined detailed comment. Meanwhile, the crypto community‘s reputation takes another hit. Apparently, some promoters believe that any publicity is good publicity – even when it involves tossing sex toys at sporting events where families gather to watch basketball. Classy move, crypto bros. Real classy.
