Elon Musk has surprised followers by changing his X (formerly Twitter) account name to ‘Kekius Maximus’, sparking widespread speculation.

This rebranding coincides with a notable spike in the cryptocurrency #KEKIUS, which recorded an eye-popping 497.56% surge in market activity within 24 hours.

The timing has fueled rumors of Musk’s potential involvement or endorsement of the crypto space, a domain he’s influenced before with tweets about Dogecoin and Bitcoin, often driving massive price swings. While no official statement links Musk to KEKIUS, the crypto community is buzzing with theories about whether the tech billionaire’s playful change is a signal to investors or merely another of his unpredictable antics.

Market analysts urge caution, citing Musk’s history of meme-driven humor and the cryptocurrency market’s volatility. Whether this is a coincidence or a strategic move remains to be seen.
