Spain coach Luis de la Fuente just told the world his team can beat anyone, including France. Crypto traders on Solana apparently heard him and decided to make it weird.
Following Spain’s quarterfinal victory over Belgium at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, de la Fuente singled out France as the team playing the best football in the tournament. Then he calmly declared Spain could take them down too.
Meme tokens ride the World Cup wave
Unauthorized meme tokens linked to French star Kylian Mbappé have seen trading volumes spike on the Solana blockchain. Tokens like $MBAPPE and $MBAPEPE have surged in activity following France’s strong performances during the tournament, which have carried them to at least the semifinal stage.
None of these tokens are officially endorsed by Mbappé, France’s national team, or any governing football body.
