Boiling (or cooking an egg by any process) triggers crosslinkages between the protein molecules in the egg, solidifying it.

A boiled egg can be spun and can stay spinning because it is solid throughout. A non boiled egg cannot be spun, it stops almost immediately because the liquid inside stays stationary and because of friction between the shell and the liquid.
