Protos: Crypto Bros Are Harassing WNBA Players Again

A group of self-described crypto entrepreneurs has again thrown sex toys onto WNBA courts, according to Protos. The outlet says the stunt is not new. Almost a year ago, the same group repeatedly threw green sex toys onto WNBA courts to promote a memecoin it created called Green Dildo. It also created NFTs and opened prediction markets on Polymarket so people could bet on the next time someone would sexually harass WNBA players. At the time, the group said it was "bringing positive attention to the sport" and claimed to support the WNBA. Protos called those claims false. The attention faded quickly, and the article says more than 80% of the coin is still controlled by seven wallets, more than half of the 1,000 NFTs offered have not been touched, and the merch page is offline. This season, the same green-dildo stunt has happened again, but Protos says it has not driven more interest in the token. No new prediction markets have been launched, purchases of the coin have barely changed, and the group has dropped its earlier claim that it supports the WNBA. Instead, it now says it is backing people protesting the WNBA’s acceptance of trans athletes. Protos notes that no trans athletes currently play in the WNBA, and none ever have. The article says individuals caught throwing the objects were arrested and given indefinite suspensions from all WNBA and NBA games. It adds that copycats seem to be fading faster than they did after last year’s stunt. Protos also points readers to Protos Leaks for tips and mentions its X, Bluesky, Google News, and YouTube channels.
