Waddles Becomes Unlikely Crypto Star with Video Game and Meme Coin

Waddles, a celebrity pig from Florida, has become an unlikely star in the world of cryptocurrency and gaming. After his animal cruelty case goes to court on Wednesday, Waddles' story has reached new heights with the creation of a video game and meme coin.

The 'Waddles Official' token was launched three days ago and had already seen $2 million in trading. The sunburned pig's story has captured the hearts of many, inspiring petitions, protests, letters to elected officials, T-shirts, and TV crews.

Earl DeLand, a 23-year-old house painter from New York, created the coin along with an endless runner video game called 'Waddles' Run: Road to Justice 3D'. The game was built using AI in just a few hours and features Waddles running away from the sun.

DeLand hopes that the coin will raise at least $250,000 to support animal rescue efforts, keep Waddles in watermelon, and help save other abandoned pigs. With over 4 million TikTok viewers having watched Waddles' story, it's clear that this pig has become a beloved celebrity.

Some investors are predicting Waddles could be 'The next Jimothy', Seattle's round raccoon whose videos went viral, or become as big as New York's beloved squirrel PNUT. However, the cryptocurrency market is highly volatile and comes with risks, including some gambling involved.
