Binance Founder’s Dog Inspires New Memecoins: What’s Next?

Binance founder Changpeng ‘CZ’ Zhao has ignited a new memecoin frenzy on X (formerly Twitter) after raising a seemingly simple question about the process of creating memecoins. With over 9.8 million followers, CZ asked how community members create memecoins based on his dog, a Belgian Malinois, after a conversation with Alistair Milne about Bitcoin’s price reaching significant milestones. Although CZ clarified that his dog is not the popular Shiba Inu, the question about creating memecoins based on his pet quickly gained traction.

The CZ Memecoin Confusion

In his post, CZ wanted to know if merely sharing the dog’s name and photo was sufficient to create a memecoin. Crypto Kemal, a user on X, immediately pressed for the dog’s name and picture, which are typically required to create a memecoin based on an animal’s identity. In response, CZ expressed confusion, wondering how users could identify the “official” memecoin from others, sparking further curiosity around the topic.

The confusion has led to the creation of at least four related tokens in the market, namely Cleo, Biggie, Semyon, and Maui. As of the latest data from DexScreener, Cleo has gained considerable traction with a $2.2 million market capitalization and over 5,570 buyers. However, the future of these volatile assets remains uncertain.

Memecoin Creation and Market Trends

The ease of creating memecoins has increased thanks to platforms like Pump.Fun on Solana and Springboard on PancakeSwap. Over the past year, the trend has evolved with community-driven tokens inspired by popular figures in the crypto space, such as Solana’s founder Anatoly Yakovenko‘s dog and Charles Hoskinson‘s pig. These community-driven creations highlight how memecoins can reflect current cultural and viral moments in the crypto world.

The trend extends to animals like Kabosu, the Shiba Inu that inspired Dogecoin, whose passing led to the creation of alternative tokens. Similarly, the death of Peanut the Squirrel, who suffered abuse by US authorities, sparked new memecoin launches.

Regulation and the Future of Memecoins

As asset managers like Tuttle Capital and Rex-Osprey push for ETF products related to memecoins such as Dogecoin and BONK, the market may see more tokens emerging in the future. Without clear regulations on memecoin creation, the phenomenon continues to grow, fueling interest and speculative investments in the space.
