VINE coin triggered by rumored VINE revival The VINE meme coin was launched on Jan. 22, 2025 by VINE co-founder Rus Yusupov as a way to “commemorate the beauty of togetherness and creation” that content creators experienced through the short-form video app that reigned supreme in the early 2010s. “We impacted culture. Millions of videos were posted. I am launching this coin to commemorate the beauty of togetherness and creation,” wrote Yusupov on the Vine coin’s website. He claimed that the team will not sell a single token. Instead, all profits reaped from the VINE meme coin will be donated to X, which he views “has become a beacon for free speech and self expression.” VINE was shut down in 2017 by its parent company Twitter as it struggled to compete with other emerging social media platforms at the time. Since then, Elon Musk has taken over as Twitter’s owner and rebranded it to X. On Jan. 19, one X user asked Musk to bring back Vine following the ban of TikTok in the United States. To which Musk responded his team was “looking into it.” Many believe Musk’s response is what prompted Yusupov to launch the VINE meme coin.
