Baby Lasagna ($LASAGNA)

Baby Lasagna ($LASAGNA) is a meme coin launched on the Solana network earlier this month. The central figure of it is Marko Purišić, a 28-year-old Croatian singer-songwriter and music producer who represented his country at the Eurovision Song Contest 2024. His song, 'Rim Tim Tagi Dim,' propelled Marko to second place at the contest. He scored 547 points and earned invaluable public admiration. This result brought Baby Lasagna the title of Croatia's highest-scoring Eurovision participant since 1993. Both the song and the meme coin itself capture the essence of venturing from the familiar to the unknown: the small-town boy heads for the big city, while the meme coin protagonist leaps into the unexpected territory of crypto. The team behind the project stated that the meme coin came as a way to combine that dynamic world of crypto with the personality and growing popularity of the artist. This is expected to allow the meme coin tap from Baby Lasagna's large fan base, which could amass a more robust community around the project. Baby Lasagna had a fair launch with no presale or airdrop activity. It has a maximum supply of 1B and a market cap of $4.73K as of now.

At the time of writing, $WHOREN is being traded at $0.03411 with a daily trading volume of $53.02K and a market cap of $3.34M.
