A group of self-described "crypto entrepreneurs" is harassing WNBA players again — one year, almost to the day, after the same individuals repeatedly threw sex toys onto WNBA courts to promote a memecoin they had created called Green Dildo.

The earlier stunt was also used to sell NFTs and to open prediction markets on Polymarket — the crypto betting platform that broke into the mainstream during the 2024 U.S. election — where people could bet on the next time someone would sexually harass WNBA players. At the time, the group claimed it was "bringing positive attention to the sport" and that its members were supporters of the WNBA. Those claims were belied by the attention the group garnered — and by the speed at which it dried up. Its own footprint tells a similar story: more than 80% of the coin is still controlled by seven wallets, over half of the 1,000 NFTs offered for minting have never been touched, and the group's merchandise page is offline. Ownership concentrated to that degree is one of the most widely cited red flags in memecoins, since wallets holding most of a token's supply can unload it onto retail buyers at any time — a recurring dynamic behind pump-and-dump collapses seen across the sector in recent years.

This season, sex toys have again been thrown onto WNBA courts on repeated occasions, but the incidents have so far failed to generate any new interest in the related token. No new prediction markets have been opened, purchases of the coin have barely been affected, and the group has dropped its earlier claims of supporting the WNBA. That fizzling response fits a broader pattern: attention-grabbing stunts at live sporting events have become a recurring promotional tactic in the memecoin boom, with interest typically spiking and fading far faster than any sustained demand develops.

The group now says it backs those protesting the WNBA accepting trans athletes as players — a campaign aimed at a hypothetical, as zero trans athletes currently play, or have ever played, in the league. Unlike last year's stunts, the renewed harassment is not tied to an apparent profit scheme.

Individuals caught dangerously hurling sex toys at WNBA players have been arrested and handed indefinite suspensions from all WNBA and NBA games, and copycat incidents appear to be petering out far faster than they did during last year's wave of stunts. The enforcement response comes as the WNBA draws its largest audiences in years, with attendance and viewership climbing sharply since the 2024 season — meaning the stunts now unfold in front of far more fans and cameras than the league commanded until recently.
