Two creators of the Solana meme coin FADELIVE staged a livestreamed boxing match to promote their token. Wearing balaclavas and Everlast boxing gloves, the pair fought in a tiled dining room, hoping to boost their coin’s market cap. After only a few minutes on the streaming platform Kick, the token hit a $30,000 market cap, earning a featured spot on Pump. Fun.
The livestream, which showcased a one-handed fight initially billed as “Friendly Fades,” quickly escalated into a more intense brawl. Despite their efforts, the fight ended abruptly when one of the fighters lost a tooth, prompting concerns about needing medical attention.
The creators’ goal was to reach a $69,000 market cap, which would allow the token to be listed on Raydium, a Solana decentralized exchange.
The token creators didn’t achieve the viral success needed and earned nothing close to Tyson Fury’s estimated $150 million earnings this weekend after a Fight with Alexander Usyk. It’s unclear if the creators will fight again, but their X and Kick accounts remain active, hinting at a possible rematch. For now, Red Shorts holds the title of Solana’s boxing champion.
