Ghibli Meme Coin Mania Erupts As Elon Musk, Sam Altman, And Ripple Execs Jump On Viral ChatGPT Image Trend
Ghibli Meme Coin Frenzy Takes Over X as Musk, Altman, and Ripple Execs Join Viral Trend
A wave of Ghibli-themed meme coins has flooded the crypto market after Elon Musk, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, and Ripple executives fueled a social media craze inspired by ChatGPT’s latest image-generation feature.
### The Ghibli Meme Coin Boom
The trend began when OpenAI’s new ChatGPT-4o model introduced image-generation capabilities, sparking a flood of Studio Ghibli-style AI-generated artwork across X. Users shared stunning anime-style portraits reminiscent of films like *Spirited Away* and *My Neighbor Totoro*.
Seizing the momentum, meme coin developers quickly launched dozens of Ghibli-themed tokens. One standout, **Ghiblification (GHIBLI)**, skyrocketed to a market cap of approximately **$21 million within 24 hours**, according to DexScreener. As of **2:12 a.m. EST**, GHIBLI was trading at **$0.02124**, marking an explosive **35,172% surge**.
The frenzy didn't stop there—at least **20 other Ghibli-inspired meme coins** surfaced within the last day, as developers raced to capitalize on the hype.
### Musk, Altman, and Ripple Execs Join the Ghibli Trend
Adding fuel to the fire, prominent tech figures, including **Elon Musk, Sam Altman, and Ripple executives Brad Garlinghouse and David Schwartz**, shared their own Ghibli-style AI portraits on X.
Musk, who has a history of triggering meme coin surges with his posts, added a crypto twist. He shared an image parodying *The Lion King*, featuring his face on a character holding a **Shiba Inu dog**, a nod to meme coins like **Dogecoin (DOGE) and Shiba Inu (SHIB)**.
Despite Musk’s influence, **SHIB dropped over 4%, while DOGE saw only a modest 1% gain** in the last 24 hours, according to CoinMarketCap.
### The Future of Ghibli Meme Coins
With social media engagement still buzzing, the question remains—will the Ghibli meme coin trend sustain its momentum, or is this just another short-lived crypto hype cycle?
