Memecoin Moo Deng, MEW Surges After Robinhood Listing
Robinhood has added two Solana-based memecoins, Moo Deng MOODENG and cat in a dog's world MEW, to its suite of cryptocurrencies available to trade for U.S. customers. Moo Deng, which is based on a baby pygmy hippo, has risen to a $230 million market cap this month after the meme went viral online in 2024. The token skyrocketed over 836% in May and jumped another 21% over the past 24 hours. Cat in a dog's world, on the other hand, is a token based on cats, which launched in March 2024 as part of a Solana meme coin frenzy. The token stands at a $368 million market cap after its price rose 52% in May. It is up nearly 20% over the past 24 hours. The latest inclusions add to Robinhood's list of meme coins, and the regulatory landscape is becoming much more flexible after the nomination of several pro-crypto government leaders and President Donald Trump's U.S. election win last year. In November, Robinhood added the trading of Pepe coin PEPE, another popular meme coin. The trading app currently offers over 20 cryptocurrencies after previously ending support for several tokens in 2023 amid a crackdown on crypto by the former Securities and Exchange Commission Chair, Gary Gensler.

Tourists blown away by airplane at iconic beach airport. Dramatic video goes viral
Maarten Princess Juliana International Airport, also known as St Martin Airport, is famous across the globe for its aircraft spotting opportunities. The airport is located at Sint Maarten in the Caribbean, and many tourists visit the Maho Beach to photograph and get captured as aircraft fly low there. But tourists should be careful, or else they could get impacted, as a video recently showed. (Also Read | Thai airports welcome travellers with adorable Moo Deng hippo-themed dolls during Songkran. Video) A video emerged on X (formerly Twitter), in which an Insel Air airline's MD 80 aircraft was seen taking off from the airport. Several tourists at the adjacent beach waved at the moving aircraft. A few people were also seen standing just next to the fenced airfield. However the sound made it impossible to stand so close to the airport. As the video proceeded, the wind from the aircraft, as it got ready to fly, impacted those standing nearby. Several people lost their balance and fell on the sand. A few of them were also seen tumbling and rolling into the water. The video ended with several people pushed back in the water as the wind blew hard. A person was heard saying, "Oh my God. Look at that." Many people also screamed as they recorded the moment. The video was shared with the caption, "Insane jet blast at St Martin Airport: a tourist gets blown away by MD80 aircraft taking off." Influencer Bryan Johnson wrote, "120-130 db within 100 meters, enough to cause immediate hearing damage." A comment read, "People also forget that the decibel scale is logarithmic, not linear." A person wrote, "The air quality is probably pretty bad, too." "Yeah, not great for long-term hearing. The youths better listen to this," read a tweet. An X user said, "My tinnitus got worse just watching this." "Not to mention the hot exhaust and fast-moving sand," said another person. "I think someone died once because they were too close to the jet blast. It's dangerous," read another tweet.

Travelling to Thailand? Everything you need to know about the new digital entry form
ADVERTISEMENT Dreaming of a White Lotus -inspired holiday or hoping to take a selfie with Moo Deng, social media's favourite pygmy hippo, in the background? Before you jet off to Thailand, don't forget to file your paperwork first. Starting from 1 May, all non-Thai nationals entering the country by air, land or sea must complete a Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) before arrival. What is the Thailand Digital Arrival Card – and how do you get one? This new arrival card replaces paper forms to streamline the immigration process and better secure Thailand's border entry system. The TDAC system will be synced with the immigration bureau's biometric database, allowing officials to quickly check the criminal backgrounds of international arrivals. Travellers must register within three days of their arrival (meaning, within three days of travelling to Thailand). Related Is weed still legal in Thailand? Here's what tourists need to know as government u-turns Thailand: Leo's beach paradise has reopened after 4 years, but tourists can't swim After completing your registration online , you will receive a QR code to present at your immigration checkpoint on arrival. That's it. There are no fees and no other steps. But it's vital to remember to do it, or you will be denied entry. From May onward, the TDAC will be mandatory for all foreign passport holders, including tourists, business travellers and long-term residents. The only exceptions apply to travellers transiting or transferring through Thailand without passing through immigration control. Travel to Thailand is surging – again With its idyllic tropical scenery, addictive cuisine and legendary hospitality, Thailand long ago evolved from its Hippie Trail roots into one of the world's top travel destinations. In 2019, nearly 40 million visitors arrived in the country, ranking it among the ten most-visited countries globally. Despite a global lull in travel during the COVID-19 pandemic, the momentum hasn't slowed much. In the first three months of 2025 alone, 9.5 million travellers touched down – many drawn by viral moments that spread like wildfire online. Related Thailand wants to make casinos legal to attract more tourists Thailand's visa-free stay will soon be cut to 30 days. Here's what it means for tourists Take Moo Deng, the hose-loving pygmy hippo whose name means 'bouncy pork.' After a video of the slippery toddler splashing around at Khao Kheow Open Zoo lit up social media last year, crowds surged. The zoo, about an hour from Bangkok, smashed attendance records – and it's still drawing thousands of daily visitors. Then came the White Lotus effect. The newest season of the dark comedy, filmed on the sun-drenched islands of Phuket and Koh Samui, has re-ignited wanderlust among global viewers looking to holiday in high style. ADVERTISEMENT According to the ultra-luxury Four Seasons Koh Samui site saw a 40 per cent increase in searches for property after it was announced as a filming location. Despite an earthquake in March, travel has continued unabated to a country often called 'Teflon Thailand' for its ability to bounce back from unrest and disruptions. Whether you're heading to Thailand to fulfil a luxury fantasy or spot its internet-famous wildlife, the first step to getting there now happens before you even leave home. Just make sure your QR code is ready before you depart. ADVERTISEMENT
