A Chinese animated film called "牛来" (Niu Lai) bombed hard at the box office — only 7,352 yuan ($1,000) in 10 days, seen by 278 people total. Classic flop.

But then someone tokenized it as a meme coin on BNB Chain.

Result? +22,470% pump in a short window.

This is the absurdity of stock memes right now — any cultural artifact, no matter how obscure or failed, can become a speculative token. The more niche and ironic, the better.

If you want to track this chaos in real-time, Trust Wallet's trending list on BNB Chain is a good feed. It's a mix of genuine projects and pure degen plays riding cultural memes.

No investment advice here, just documenting the weird intersection of failed media IP and on-chain speculation.
