๐ถ What happens when fatherhood meets crypto degeneracy?
This is the real story of a man who named his newborn daughter Solana, live-streamed her birth, and launched two meme coins to mark the occasionโฆ
But what began as a "wholesome" blockchain moment turned into a controversial pump and dump.
Hereโs everything that happened ๐
โ
It All Started with Love... and Pump.fun
A couple in Washington D.C. went viral when the father decided to stream the birth of his daughter on Pump.fun, Solanaโs leading meme coin launch platform.
While his wife was in labor, the dad launched a token called $PREGOWIFE to mark the moment โ and people could hear the screams, nurses, and emotions live on the stream.
๐ The community cheered in real-time:
โPUUUUUSHHHHโ
โI HEAR HER!โ
โDEV MINT BABYโ
Just hours later, the baby was born โ and she was named Solana.
๐ก The First Baby "Born on the Blockchain"?
According to the dad (who goes by โLay-Jee-Unโ), this wasnโt just for fun.
He wanted to do something โhistoricโ:
โI wanted my daughter to be the first person ever born on the blockchain.โ
Right after the birth, he launched a new meme coin named after her โ $SOLBABY.
And just like that, crypto had a new child star.
๐ From Memecoin to Mayhem: The Rise of $SOLBABY
With all the hype and eyes on the story, $SOLBABY began to moon โ and fast.
๐ It reached a peak market cap of nearly $700,000, and the dev (dad) even made over $2,800 in creator fees from Pump.fun within a day.
But soon, the price started crashing hardโฆ
โ ๏ธ The Crash and the Conspiracies
Hereโs where things took a dark turn:
๐ป $PREGOWIFE crashed 89% right after the baby was born
๐ป $SOLBABY dumped 41% in one minute after the dev wallet sold $3.2K
๐ป Market cap fell 92% from the peak to just $58K
๐ฅ Traders began investigating โ and found that over 50% of the supply of both tokens was bought using โbundlesโ (a way to split large buys across wallets to fake decentralization).
Some began to believe the dad mightโve manipulated the token or secretly controlled the supply.
๐ต Was It All a Rug?
Many traders felt tricked โ saying the dev dumped tokens, swing-traded from the dev wallet, and lacked understanding of meme coin ethics.
One trader, โK9alphas,โ said:
โHe seemed like a good dude. Just didnโt know the unspoken rules of Pump.fun.โ
Others werenโt so kind, accusing him of planning it all to exploit attention for fast profits.
But the dad pushed back hard:
โIโm a crypto vet, not a noob. I never bundled anything. People lie because theyโre mad.โ
๐ฌ And What About His Wife?
Many were shocked the man would even livestream the birth.
He clarified that he never showed her on camera, only the ceiling and sound โ and said she was okay with it, though she asked him to avoid filming the actual delivery.
โI respect her for being cool about it. Sheโs an amazing woman.โ
He also said he did all of this to try and support his new family financially.
๐ผ Whatโs Next for $SOLBABY?
Despite the drama, the dad insists $SOLBABY isnโt dead.
He calls it his โlongevity coinโ โ a forever token tied to his daughterโs life.
But so far, thereโs no clear roadmap, and trust in the project is low.
Heโs been awake for over 48 hours and said:
โI just need sleep, man.โ

โ ๏ธ Hype doesn't equal honesty
โ ๏ธ Viral moments can be used as bait
โ ๏ธ Even the cutest backstory can hide a selloff
โ ๏ธ Always check token distribution before buying
๐ถ $SOLBABY will be remembered โ not just as a meme coin, but as a cautionary tale.
Would you ever invest in a token born during childbirth?
