(SeaPRwire) – Announcement: GraphDex has formally debuted its comprehensive digital asset trading terminal, a platform that secured 8,300 registrations on its first day following a viral incident at Token2049 Singapore.
At Token2049 Singapore in September 2024, Vitalik Buterin gestures with a thumbs-up to the GraphDex hedgehog mascot. In the complete footage, Buterin bows to the mascot upon being handed a branded condom featuring a QR code. The video gained renewed traction during the launch, generating 8,300 sign-ups within two hours.
HONG KONG, May 20, 2026 — GraphDex has announced the official public release of its unified digital asset trading terminal. This launch occurred alongside the re-emergence of a viral video from Token2049 Singapore. The clip shows Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin bowing to the platform’s hedgehog mascot after being given a branded condom printed with a QR code, an interaction that sparked 8,300 sign-ups in just two hours.
The mascot in question is GraphDex’s signature hedgehog. During the September 2024 Token2049 event in Singapore, the mascot presented Buterin with a condom featuring a QR code. Buterin accepted the item, bowed, and departed. Although the encounter was captured on video, the footage remained largely overlooked for eighteen months.
When GraphDex officially went live, the video clip went viral once again, prompting 8,300 users to scan the QR code during the initial two hours of the launch.
“Trade, predict, stake, repeat,” the CTO remarked. “The hedgehog handled the marketing for us.”
What greeted the 8,300 traders upon arrival
GraphDex addresses a common but rarely discussed issue faced by active traders: the typical Solana trader operates with roughly seven browser tabs open at once. Switching between these tabs causes delays, which can be the deciding factor between profit and loss in fast-moving markets where trends can rise and fall within twenty minutes.
The platform integrates these essential tools into a single interface, eliminating the need to switch tabs. It features Solana DEX trading, live token discovery, wallet and social monitoring, prediction markets, copytrading for prediction markets, and AI-driven signal analysis. Additionally, users retain control of their funds in non-custodial wallets powered by Privy infrastructure.
An industry-first feature
With prediction markets expanding by 1,700 percent over the past two years, the introduction of copytrading to this sector was inevitable. GraphDex is the first to deliver this capability, allowing users to automatically replicate the trades of leading forecasters sorted by PnL, win rate, and volume. This data layer continuously refines its accuracy as user participation grows.
The platform offers staking yields of up to 17% on SOL, USDT, and USDC, alongside an ambassador program that shares up to 65% of revenue. Additionally, a Graphpay crypto card is currently being developed.
The hedgehog remains active, the QR code is still functional, and Buterin still possesses the condom.
