Loaded Lions, the flagship NFT collection from Crypto.com, will attempt to set a new GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title for the largest aerial display of a currency symbol formed by multi-rotor drones.
The attempt is scheduled for May 1, 2025, in Miami, Florida, and will feature 1,200 drones creating a 10-minute display of the newly launched LION token symbol.
Drone Show Details
The current record, achieved by Gemini on March 13, 2025, involved 894 drones forming the Bitcoin (BTC) symbol. Loaded Lions aims to surpass that figure with a larger and longer drone performance that highlights the project’s recent expansion into cryptocurrency tokens.
Drone shows involve the coordinated flight of hundreds or even thousands of drones, each equipped with lights, to create moving images, logos, or messages in the sky.
According to the announcement, the record attempt is part of a broader effort to raise awareness of the Loaded Lions project and to bring greater utility to its community members by introducing the LION token.

The drone show will take place between the MacArthur Causeway and the Port Miami Bridge at 9:30 p.m. EST (May 2 2025, 01:30 UTC), one day before the Formula 1 Crypto.com Miami Grand Prix starts.
Spectators are advised that the best viewing area is the waterfront south of the Port Miami Bridge (see the image above). Under favourable weather conditions, the drone formation may be visible up to 1.5 to 2 miles.
Loaded Lions has encouraged attendees and nearby viewers to capture photos and videos of the event, offering a giveaway worth $5,000 in LION tokens to five individuals. Details on how to participate will be announced via the project’s official X account.
Loaded Lions Expands Its Web3 Ecosystem
The Loaded Lions collection was the first platform-owned NFT project launched by Crypto.com. It comprises 10,000 unique, algorithmically generated profile picture (PFP) NFTs. Each NFT combines 150 hand-drawn traits, including different hairstyles, costumes, and accessories, with varying rarity levels.
Ownership of a Loaded Lions NFT provides access to the Mane Net, a membership community offering benefits such as VIP event experiences, exclusive giveaways, and early access to other Crypto.com NFT drops.
Over the next five years, Loaded Lions aims to expand its presence within the Web3 ecosystem, introducing features such as the LION token, community governance tools, Mane City gaming updates, and integrations with AI tech. The project has also announced plans to launch branded merchandise, organize global meetups, and introduce AI-supported gaming features to attract a broader user base.
