馬斯克更新個人資料的時機引起了加密社區的一些關注。更名後不久,與馬斯克新頭像同名的加密貨幣 Kekius Maximus (KEKIUS) 的市值出現了非凡的飆升。 僅僅一小時內,Kekius Maximus 的市值就從 54,000 美元飆升至驚人的 1040 萬美元,增長了 184 倍。根據 Coingecko 數據,目前市值超過 1.3 億美元。 人們普遍猜測馬斯克的更名與凱基烏斯·馬克西姆斯的matic崛起之間可能存在聯繫。區塊鏈分析平臺 Lookonchain 上的一篇帖子助長了內幕交易的謠言。 多麼幸運的交易者——或者也許是一個內部人士!

The post claimed that a trader had purchased 18.15 million Kekius Maximus tokens for $4,360 just hours before the price surge, now worth over $638,000. The uncanny timing of Musk’s change of profile name has left many questioning whether the billionaire might have played a hand in igniting a price run.
Kekius Maximus is a meme-inspired cryptocurrency operating across multiple blockchain platforms, including Ethereum and Solana. Despite its origins in internet humor, the coin’s developers aim to go beyond the typical meme token hype.
The project seeks to combine fun, community engagement, and innovation while providing genuine utility within the blockchain space. Unlike many memecoins that are driven purely by speculative trading, Kekius Maximus claims it intends to create a sustainable ecosystem with real-world applications.
The project’s deflationary model and decentralized governance system provide a unique value proposition for holders. KEKIUS, the coin associated with the project, has gained significant attention, growing by over 2,000% since its launch.
At press time, the memecoin is priced at $0.1288. It has seen a notable spike in trading volume, up by 180% in just 24 hours.
Notably, the project recently reached 100,000 wallet holders, an achievement that signifies growing interest and adoption. KEKIUS also claims to have partnered with a top-tier blockchain gaming studio to launch a play-to-earn (P2E) game in Q1 2025, further expanding its ecosystem and user engagement.
In addition to the P2E game, KEKIUS has implemented a token burn, reducing its circulating supply by 5%, which traditionally decreases supply and boosts the price of available tokens.
Elon Musk’s influence on the cryptocurrency market is well-documented, and his recent behavior on X has only intensified his role as a major driver of crypto price movements. While Musk has not publicly commented on the reasons behind his name change, he did share several posts on X that seem to indirectly reference Kekius Maximus.
In one post, Musk joked about how a journalist might introduce him as “Elon Musk, aka ‘Kekius Maximus’ on X,” adding, “This will be priceless.”

In another post, Musk made a cryptic reference to the cryptocurrency’s future, predicting that “Kekius Maximus will soon reach level 80 in hardcore PoE” alongside an AI-generated image of the character touching a stone marked with the number 80.
While the statement was somewhat playful in tone, it added fuel to the speculation surrounding Musk’s involvement with the coin.
This is not the first time Musk has shown his penchant for making bold, sometimes playful, changes to his online persona. In 2023, when he acquired Twitter for $44 billion, he briefly swapped the platform’s iconic blue bird logo for the Dogecoin mascot, resulting in a noticeable spike in Dogecoin’s value.
He later rebranded Twitter to X, but the impact of his actions on Dogecoin’s price had already been felt, showcasing Musk’s power to move the crypto market with his online behavior.
