THE STORY OF BILLY!
Dev Dumped. Now He’s Worth $200M: The Story of Billy.
Billy is the largest Solana meme coin on Pumpdotfun, peaking at a market cap of over $200 million. But it wasn’t always smooth sailing. Minutes after launching Billy’s dev abandoned him and sold the majority of their tokens. At the time, the tokens were worth $1,116 but at today’s value they’d be worth more than $8.65 million.
Fortunately for the dog, the community took over and gave the meme a new life. In what is called a community takeover (CTO) a group of 100 people dedicated their lives to saving and promoting the crypto coin. And it worked.
We’re joined by Minh Dynasty who was part of the community takeover from the earliest moments. He recounts the journey and why Billy means so much to him.
