WTF is an actual real token of ETH chain, https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/wtf-token with a market cap of $1.3 million.

https://protos.com/crypto-airdrop-tries-cover-ethereum-gas-f... Did you know about the token beforehand and made a sarcastic post on it, or was it just a pure coincidence.

Pure coincidence. I had written "wtf" in response to something else and it just sounded like a good coin name for a joke. I don't follow the latest in shitcoins. Not that I'm exactly surprised there's a token called WTF...

“It sounded like a good joke” is the rationale behind a lot of popular altcoin names.
