LABUBU: From Trendy Toys to Crypto Meme

LABUBU is a member of the core IP “THE MONSTERS” under Pop Mart, designed by Hong Kong artist Long Jiasheng. Its image combines the “charming” expression of pointed ears and 9 sharp teeth with a rounded body that gives a “cute” feel, creating a distinctly recognizable contrast style. In 2025, due to celebrities like BLACKPINK member LISA and a Thai princess posting about their children on social media, LABUBU quickly broke into mainstream culture and became a global phenomenon IP.

The Financialization Craze in the Trendy Toy Market

  • Premium Myth: The second-hand price of a blind box hidden item originally priced at 99 yuan exceeds 2,300 yuan, and the co-branded items are even crazier. For example, the LABUBU x Vans model has skyrocketed from 599 yuan to 27,999 yuan (a premium of 47 times).
  • Auction Record: In June 2025, the world’s only 131 cm mint green LABUBU was hammering down at 1.08 million yuan, joining the ranks of “million-dollar collectibles.”
  • Commercial Value: Driving THE MONSTERS series revenue to reach 3.04 billion yuan in 2024, a year-on-year increase of 726.6%.

2025 Price Prediction: Triple Scenario Analysis

Optimistic Scenario (Market Cap Exceeds 100 Million)

If LABUBU continues to gain popularity (such as through new collaborations/IP adaptations into films), combined with the token being listed on mainstream exchanges, it may attract speculative funds driving the market cap to reach 100 million dollars. Short-term target price $0.0015 (up +150% from current price).

Neutral Scenario (Consolidation)

The popularity of trendy items remains stable but lacks significant breakthroughs, with prices likely fluctuating in the range of $0.0006 - $0.0009 and a market cap maintained between $30 million - $50 million.

Pessimistic Scenario (Zero Risk)

If the tide of collectible consumption recedes or regulatory crackdowns on Meme coin speculation occur (such as the U.S. SEC strengthening scrutiny), token liquidity will plummet. Historical data shows that 90% of similar hype-driven coins ultimately go to zero.

Conclusion

LABUBU’s magical narrative is the ultimate reflection of Generation Z’s “financialization of social capital.” The dual carnival of trendy toys and tokens reflects the golden age of IP operation. Whether you choose to collect LABUBU dolls in your cabinet or trade tokens on-chain, remember: true value never arises from the endgame of passing the parcel.
