And this is exactly what many users in the Chinese-speaking cryptocurrency community need. Many users who participated in the lottery said they had wanted to play for a long time, and “Black Myths: Goku” successfully became the C-digit traffic password for the night.
According to incomplete statistics, “Black Myths: Goku”, which was used for circulation that night, was mainly a 328 yuan deluxe edition — there were 4 versions of the game, namely the digital standard edition that cost 268 yuan, the 328 yuan digital deluxe edition, the 820 yuan physical deluxe edition, and the 1998 yuan physical collector's edition.

“Stocks have all gone up and down.”
“The concept stocks involved are all rising.”
“Is there a Black Goku meme? I feel like there's a wave in the market.”
“It's already Rafi (same as “flying”, industry nonsense, meaning it's rising very much).”
In a chain game community, community members were excited to discuss “Black Myths: Goku” and its surroundings.
Currently, multiple $ WuKong meme coins with the same name have appeared in ETH, BSC, Solona, andBASEOn these four public chains, according to Geckotermina data, the main battleground for $WuKong is currently Solana'sRaydiumAbove, it has the largest 24-hour trading volume. The best performer was Uniswap V2 on the Base Chain. As of press time, $WuKong's 24-hour increase reached 31,077%. This is probably because Uniswap V2's $Wukong is newer than Solana's Raydium's $Wukong, which is also less liquid — more than 1,100 people have participated in this “game” so far.
According to gmgn.ai data, the largest $Wukong pool on Solana's Raydium currently has more than 900 people participating in the pool. The $Wukong was founded by c6rfblz2sqpcqqjtib1he69o1xgautu6amqd9MWTbad. The total purchase cost for this user is around $260,000. As of press time, the account has now made a profit of about 350,000 US dollars, and 5.8 million in floating profit.
Of course, there is more than one $Wukong on Solana, but only this one has the largest pool volume and the highest increase. Other pools have mixed ups and downs, and the liquidity in the pools is poor.
The NFT market caught off guard
“Black Myths: Goku” is very popular, and there are also NFTs that want to gain a wave of popularity. However, compared to Meme's quick, convenient, and one-click coin delivery, NFTs seem a bit caught off guard.
Among some existing NFT concepts, there are no changes in NFTs that may be related to “monkeys” and “apes,” and new NFT projects are still being prepared to be minted.
There is an NFT called “Sun WuKong” that claims that Choi Chi-chung collaborated with Caturapramana Universe to launch the “Journey to the West” NFT, sending X to the popularity of “Black Myth: Goku”, but they haven't opened Mint yet — I just don't know if the “Black Myth: Goku” bowl of rice is still hot when they open Mint?
Furthermore, the deluxe edition of “Black Myths: Goku” worth 328 yuan was distributed as an NFT for Twitter users to use for free Mint, but it is essentially an X streaming campaign that requires users to like and retweet to qualify for free Mint. Although the publisher said it would provide 1,000 copies, 10 hours have passed, and there are less than 100 users involved in retweeting and liking, and there is only very little enthusiasm for the free MINT.
“Black Myths: Goku” has been verified once again by the community. Memes are the best way to gain popularity, and NFTs have become a thing of the future.
