10.08.2025 08:11 β π 93 π 14 π¬ 2 π 0Since the incidents have increased, community members from a meme-coin called Green Dildo Coin have taken responsibility for some of the disruptions. A spokesperson for the group told USA Today that members started throwing green sex toys to coincide with the launch of the meme-coin, which was created the day before the first incident. The group wanted to use the "viral stunts" to garner attention, they said. "We didn't do this because like we dislike women's sports or, like, some of the narratives that are trending right now are ridiculous," the spokesperson said anonymously in a Thursday article.
Barely followed this story, but if my life trajectory involved being a spokesperson for the "Green Dildo Coin", I'd hope my friends and family would stage an intervention
