A representative for the Las Vegas Sphere has denied any agreement to feature the Dogwifhat meme coin at the venue, according to a report by Decrypt.

This statement contradicts claims made by Dogwifhat (WIF) token supporters

“We have never had a deal with Dogwifhat, and our agency at the time only had one very preliminary conversation early last year,” a Sphere spokesperson told Decrypt. 

The spokesperson further clarified that there was never a plan for Dogwifhat to appear on the Exosphere and expressed concern that the venue’s name was being misused for deceptive purposes.

The denial follows a now-deleted post from Dogwifhat’s official X account that stated, “Officially confirmed. Viva hat vegas,” accompanied by an artist’s rendering of the meme dog on the Sphere.

A revised version of the post later removed the confirmation but retained the artwork, which featured a phone screen displaying “Q1 2025.”

In March 2024, five organizers raised from WIF supporters to fund a Sphere advertisement, driving the token to an all-time high of $4.83. However, as no campaign materialized, criticism grew, with many demanding refunds.
