BOBO BOBO

Bobo the Bear is a meme character that has become synonymous with bear markets. Inspired by popular memes like Apu Apustaja and Pepe the Frog, Bobo’s design features a bear-like appearance. The name “Bobo” was chosen in June 2018 through a community voting process and has since become the official name for the character.

Bobo’s presence is widespread on social media platforms like Twitter and 4chan, particularly on the /biz board, where users post Bobo memes to satirize poor investment choices and express pessimism during financial downturns. The character has also been immortalized through the creation of Bobo NFTs curated by the Bobo Council.

The Bobo the Bear project is led by “rekt_teka$hi,” an OG Bobo Meme artist who has been creating content featuring the character since its inception in 2018. However, Bobo’s identity has been shaped by a collaborative effort of community members globally, with various artists contributing to the growing collection of Bobo memes.

In times of financial uncertainty, Bobo serves as a beacon of levity, offering a humorous perspective on the challenges faced by investors during bear markets. By embodying the essence of market pessimism, Bobo provides a source of light-hearted entertainment and camaraderie for individuals navigating turbulent financial landscapes.
