Meme Coin ’Kekius Maximus’ Skyrockets 142% Following Elon Musk’s X Profile Tweak
Another day, another crypto pump fueled by Elon Musk’s Twitter fingers. The meme coin ’Kekius Maximus’—because the world needed another doge knockoff—went parabolic after Musk updated his X profile, proving once again that crypto markets run on vibes and billionaire whims.
No fundamentals? No problem. Traders piled in faster than a degenerate chasing a 100x leverage play, sending the token’s price to stratospheric levels within hours. Just don’t ask what it actually does.
Meanwhile, serious projects building actual blockchain infrastructure continue trading sideways. But hey, who needs utility when you’ve got the Musk Effect? *Cue eye-roll from every finance professional with a CFA.*

The surge is a departure from the previous months, during which the token traded at around $0.025. Musk’s decision to switch his X profile name to Kekius Maximus once again drew attention to the memecoin.
Though KEKIUS isn’t among the top memecoins to watch in May, Musk’s influence has brought it back into the spotlight. His power to move crypto prices is well documented, from pushing Dogecoin to changing X’s icon to the DOGE logo in 2021. While Dogecoin and shiba inu remain investor favorites, KEKIUS is quickly gaining attention.
Currently, the broader memecoin market is also seeing a positive shift. Dogecoin is eyeing a potential supercycle, and Shiba Inu has shown a 1.09% uptick in the last 24 hours. The total market cap of memecoins now sits at nearly $69 billion.
Whether KEKIUS can maintain this momentum remains uncertain, but one thing’s clear: Elon Musk still knows how to make markets move.
