Meme Coin News Update: Film "Raging Bull" Removed from Theaters in Dalian, Box Office Enters Top 10 of 2026 Chinese Domestic Animation
BlockBeats News, August 16th. The Chinese domestically produced abstract animated film "Bullcom" is reported to have been removed from screens and taken down from theaters in Dalian, the location of the film's production company, starting today. Local theaters received a notice citing concerns about the poor quality of the film affecting the city's image. Currently, "Bullcom" has not been completely removed from theaters in China. Most cities across the country are still screening the film as scheduled today. Many theaters in different regions have clearly stated that they have not received any official notice to take down the film. Movie tickets for several days or even a week later are still available for purchase on ticketing platforms. There is a circulating online screenshot claiming that starting from August 17th, all new screenings will be suspended nationwide (existing showtimes will continue), but this information has not been confirmed by the authorities or the majority of cinema chains. "Bullcom" is still being shown in theaters, and its box office revenue has surged from a few thousand yuan in the initial stage to several million.
According to Lighthouse Professional Edition, the movie "Bullcom" has entered the top 10 of the 2026 China domestic animated film box office list, with a current box office of 4.648 million yuan, ranking ninth after "Shocktrooper: Lilliputian" with 6.732 million yuan.
According to GMGN data, trading of the Meme coin "Bullcom" on the BNB Chain remains active, with a 24-hour trading volume of $37.5 million. The market capitalization is currently at $16.4 million, with a 24-hour increase of 223%. However, compared to the day's high of $29 million, the market cap has dropped by nearly 45%.
BlockBeats reminds users that Meme coins often lack practical use cases, experience significant price volatility, and investment should be approached with caution.
