Surge! Musk Changes Username, KEKIUS Soars 32,420%, Next Target $1?
After billionaire Elon Musk changed his username on the social media platform X, the frog-themed memecoin surged significantly.
According to Musk's X profile, his name has been changed to 'Kekius Maximus,' vaguely referencing the Egyptian god Kek, known for his frog head, which gamers and internet users use to express laughter.
Kek is also associated with Pepe the Frog, a cartoon character that inspired the $8.1 billion memecoin PEPE.
Tesla CEO's sudden name change caused an astonishing surge in the price of Kekius Maximus (KEKIUS), an Ethereum-based frog-themed altcoin, which skyrocketed over 32,000%, from $0.00123 on December 30 to a peak of $0.40 on January 1.
