VINE is a meme coin launched on January 22, 2025, by Rus Yusupov, the co-founder of the original Vine app. Built on the Solana blockchain, VINE was created to celebrate the creativity and sense of community associated with the Vine platform, aiming to bring back the nostalgic charm of its heyday.

Shortly after its launch, VINE attracted significant attention, leading to its listing on several major exchanges like Binance Futures, CoinEX, and Bitget. The project has also gained momentum due to speculation around reviving the original Vine app, a topic further fueled by Elon Musk’s recent comments about exploring this possibility.

VINE represents a trend of meme coins linked to well-known personalities or platforms, leveraging their cultural relevance to generate interest. Its launch showcases the growing intersection between blockchain innovation and pop culture nostalgia.
