Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and owner of the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), recently changed his profile name to "Kekius Maximus" and updated his avatar to an image of Pepe the Frog in golden armor.
This alteration has been linked to a meme-inspired cryptocurrency token called Kekius Maximus, which operates on the Ethereum and Solana blockchains. Following Musk's profile update, the token's value surged by 500-800% within 24 hours.
Musk's engagement with internet meme culture and its intersection with cryptocurrency is well-documented. His social media activity has previously influenced the value of various cryptocurrencies, notably Dogecoin.
