The crypto world has a new obsession, and it isn’t a coin or protocol—it’s a cat. Tsuji, the first feline rumored to be “purchased” with Binance Coin (BNB), has taken over social media with memes, jokes, and debates about digital ownership.

The Origin of the Meme

It all began as a playful rumor on Crypto Twitter, where screenshots circulated of a supposed 15 BNB transaction “in exchange” for Tsuji, a gray cat with striking blue eyes. Whether real or fake, the internet crowned him the first blockchain-certified cat.

Memes soon followed. Users created fake receipts showing “BNB → 1 Cat (Tsuji)” and NFT parodies offering shares of his whiskers. Fan art depicted him on cold wallets, wearing pixel sunglasses, and pawing at candlestick charts.

From Jokes to Viral Fame

The hashtag #TsujiOnChain trended daily. Some hailed him as a symbol of crypto’s culture, while others laughed at the absurdity. “This is peak Web3,” one Redditor quipped. “Forget Lambos—we’re buying cats now.”

A Symbol of Crypto Culture

Analysts even weighed in, half-jokingly. Blockchain researcher Elena Kim said, “Tsuji embodies the blurred line between assets and life in crypto culture. Tokenizing pets may be absurd, but it’s strangely poetic.”

The Legacy of Tsuji

Developers launched parody dApps like “PetSwap” to exchange digital cats with testnet BNB. TikTok creators dramatized investors debating whether to hold coins or adopt cats. Fan art continued to flood social platforms.

At its core, the Tsuji meme isn’t about whether a cat was truly bought with BNB. It’s about humor, community, and making blockchain feel tangible—and ridiculous—through a single fluffy cat. In crypto lore, Tsuji has already secured his spot as the first legendary BNB feline.
