San Francisco, USA, January 8th, 2026,
Hotako ($HOTA), a Solana-based meme token project featuring an anime-inspired character narrative, has officially announced its launch on the permissionless token platform Pump.fun. The token is scheduled to go live on January 7, 2026, at 14:00 UTC.
The project introduces a thematic ecosystem built around a fictional universe known as "Planet Nyaru," with plans to incorporate community missions, NFTs, and integrations with broader Web3 technologies. Hotako's approach emphasizes creative storytelling combined with community-led engagement initiatives.
Character-Driven Ecosystem
Hotako is centered around a narrative involving a stylized cosmic cat-girl character from the Nyaru universe. According to the development team, this thematic identity serves as the basis for future integrations across NFTs, gaming, and community events.
The project’s roadmap outlines several planned features, including gamified missions, token-holder incentives, and cross-sector collaborations with Web3, AI, and gaming-related platforms.
Pre-Launch Marketing and Ecosystem Partnerships
In the lead-up to launch, the Hotako team reports several planned promotional and community outreach activities:
- Content collaborations with social media influencers and content creators
- Cross-platform promotional campaigns on X (formerly Twitter), Reddit, Binance Square, and other crypto-focused platforms
- Strategic ecosystem partnerships with over 30 Web3 projects
- Community-driven events such as meme contests and NFT reward programs
- Targeted regional outreach in Asia, Europe, and North America
- Visibility efforts via DexTools, DexScreener, and anticipated submissions to CoinMarketCap and CoinGecko
Launch Platform and Roadmap Milestones
Hotako will be launched exclusively via Pump.fun, a Solana-based platform designed for decentralized token creation and discovery.
Following the launch, the team plans to focus on:
- Applications for centralized exchange (CEX) listings
- Release of a limited NFT collection tied to the Nyaru universe
- Ongoing community campaigns, including themed participation initiatives referred to as “Snack Missions”
- Collaborations across the Web3, gaming, and AI ecosystems
NFT Distribution and Community Incentives
As part of its post-launch plans, Hotako intends to airdrop NFTs to the top 100 long-term $HOTA holders. The NFTs are expected to be integrated into the broader storytelling framework of the Nyaru universe.
Project Statement
A spokesperson for Hotako stated that the project’s vision is to explore alternative use cases for meme tokens through transparency, consistent execution, and thematic engagement. The project will focus on long-term development rather than short-term market trends.
