In the 2022 Spring Festival Gala, Shen Teng mentioned "DogKing in the Metaverse" many times in the skit "Not Yet Returned", and then the cryptocurrency of the same name DogeKing soared 5,000 times in two nights. The 2024 Lunar New Year is approaching, and "dragon" concept Meme Coin and inscription projects have emerged on major public chains, whether it is Silly Dragon on Solana or DINO on Avalanche, the popularity is still as high as before.
However, the rise of the "dragon" concept is not just the influence of Chinese elements, on the contrary, it originated in the West. During Halloween 2023, Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko appeared at the Solana Breakpoint 2023 meeting in Amsterdam wearing a "Silly Dragon" costume. Soon after, "Silly Dragon" was launched on Solana. After getting Anatoly's attention, Silly Dragon has risen by more than 80 times and broke through 0.13 USDT today, setting a record high.
In Europe and America, the dragon exists in ancient Greece, ancient Babylon, Christianity, Nordic mythology, Celtic culture, and Anglo-Saxon legends. It is the national symbol of the Vikings, Celts, and Anglo-Saxons, representing power and holiness. In the Christian Bible narrative, the legend of "St. George and the Dragon" portrays the dragon as a "miser" and a devil. In China, the dragon was worshipped as a totem during the Shang and Zhou dynasties. It is the head of all beasts, bringing down rain and benefiting the earth, symbolizing peace in the world. In the political genealogy since the Qin and Han dynasties, the dragon is a symbol of Chinese political theocracy, representing wealth, wisdom, and power.
"Dragon frying in the Year of the Dragon", a common cultural meme has emerged in the East and the West besides dogs. In view of this, Foresight News has counted the recent "dragon" concept meme coins and inscription projects on major mainstream public chains for readers.
