What are Ghibli memecoins, and why are they gaining popularity on Solana?
Ghibli-themed memecoins are taking off on Solana. Taking inspiration from the artwork of the famous Studio Ghibli, they demonstrate how AI art has evolved into a crypto craze.
Ghiblification (GHIBLI) is a memecoin built on the Solana blockchain. It draws inspiration from the Ghibli-styled ChatGPT-generated images, which are influenced by the aesthetic work of Studio Ghibli, a Japanese animation studio. The token gained viral traction shortly after its launch on March 25, 2025, via the @ghibli account on X.
Riding a wave of community-generated content on social media, particularly X, GHIBLI saw a sharp price rise, peaking at $0.03918 on March 28, 2025, before declining to $0.0033 by April 7. During this period, its market capitalization fell from $39.179 million to $3.37 million.
