Elon Musk's newest X name change has again reverberated through the crypto market. Changed his profile to “Kekius Maximus” with a Roman-style frog image, resulting in a 120% increase in the meme-inspired coin within 24 hours. Binance data showed KEKIUS rising from 0.025 to 0.0502 overnight.
Musk Causes Frog Coin Boom
Recent reports indicate that Musk's social media changes have impacted meme currencies before. Last December, he acquired the same moniker and a golden-armored Pepe picture. That action sent KEKIUS up roughly 500% in one day before prices fell.
His fans consider every change a purchase signal. They rush in when a new profile name appears. Many flee as the excitement wears down.
Binance data shows the token's value rose 119% in 24 hours after Musk's decision. CoinMarketCap shows it peaked at 0.0502, up from 0.025 a day earlier. That is significantly below its debut price last year. Speculators paid 0.25 each KEKIUS token before the initial collapse.
Kekius Maximus mixes various items. Gamer lingo for laughing was “kek”. It also relates to an Egyptian frog-headed deity of chaos. Maximus resembles a cinematic gladiator. The token uses Ethereum and Solana.
Creators intended to merge folklore, pop culture, and memes. No huge tech—just a lighthearted mashup that responds to Elon Musk's mood swings.
This trend indicates how crazy crypto may go with a celebrity, sources say. Tokens provide no products or services. Pure hype makes or breaks them. Profile names typically collapse when flipped back.
Peak traders risk big loses. Regulators have warned about such pumps. Celebrity buzz might hide the real danger, they warn.
