Hippo hype meets Solana
MOODENG, the token inspired by Moo Deng—the viral baby pygmy hippo from a zoo in Thailand—has splashed into Bitso! This memecoin thrives on community vibes and meme culture, offering fast, low-cost transactions powered by Solana. MOODENG doesn’t have any utility; it’s about joining a movement that is as playful as it is speculative.
What is MOODENG?
MOODENG is a Solana-based memecoin launched in 2024 to celebrate Moo Deng, the pygmy hippo who became an internet sensation at about two months old. Instead of focusing on staking or governance, MOODENG lives off its strong community and the cultural power of memes.
With Solana as its base, transactions are fast, cheap; perfect for an asset that’s all about fun.
Why does MOODENG stand out?
- Inspired by a viral hippo loved by millions around the world.
- Built on Solana for speed and low fees.
- Driven by community and meme culture, not utility.
The story behind MOODENG
The origins of MOODENG are largely community-driven, with no official founding team publicly identified. The token was launched in September 2024 through pump.fun — a platform that allows anyone to create a token on Solana in just a few clicks — as a tribute to Moo Deng, the baby pygmy hippopotamus from Thailand’s Khao Kheow Open Zoo, that became an internet sensation. Its growth has followed the typical memecoin path, where community engagement and viral culture drive its growth rather than a formal organization or leadership team.
Real-world example
