Japan’s pop culture sensation and former adult film star Yua Mikami has announced her entry into the crypto world with the upcoming launch of her meme coin, $MIKAMI, on the Solana blockchain. The announcement was made via her official X (formerly Twitter) account, with the token set to go live tomorrow.
Yua Mikami To Launch $MIKAMI Memecoin
According to the project’s official site, $MIKAMI will have a total supply distribution that allocates 50% of tokens to Mikami herself, locked until the year 2069. The remaining supply is divided among marketing (5%), the community (10%), liquidity (15%), and a “Firesale” launch (20%).
The project roadmap has laid out a four-phase rollout including:
Phase 1: Birth of a Legend signifies the launch of the $MIKAMI token. This phase sets the tone with fundamental community-building across platforms like Telegram and X. This phase also includes the initial launch of a liquidity pool on decentralized exchanges (DEX).
Phase 2 is all about Awakening, which sees the launching of “Mikami’s Shrine”, a place for fans, with increased community engagement through swag drops and meme competitions. Planned marketing campaigns would promote visibility and establish the project’s identity.
Phase 3: Expansion will bring in the first tease of real-world merchandise collabs. A major partnership campaign to be held, which targets audiences across Asia and the anime community. This phase also features a $MIKAMI token burn event to celebrate key events.
Phase 4: Immortality will introduce governance to the community directly with the Mikami DAO launch. This allows $MIKAMI holders to vote on future events and collaborations. The phase also will see the Model Context Protocol (MCP), which is an AI agent designed for fan interaction and monetization. Plans for global fan meetups and online concerts conclude the roadmap, with exclusive experiences reserved for crypto holders.
Despite a growing buzz—with the $MIKAMI Twitter page already amassing over 13,000 followers—the project issued a disclaimer noting that it will not market or sell the token in Japan, citing regulatory boundaries. The team explicitly stated that $MIKAMI is not available to Japanese residents or participants.
Mikami’s crypto venture is the latest example of the trending celebrity-meme coin crossover that continues to lure investors and fans alike. Rapper Kanye West, recently made headlines with the announcement of his YZY meme coin, which reportedly allocates 70% of the supply to himself. On the other hand, politically-themed crypto like $TRUMP and $MELANIA have maintained a steady presence in the meme coin ecosystem, with $TRUMP trading at $0.0001343.
