Elon Musk, the world’s richest person and owner of companies like Tesla, SpaceX, and X (formerly Twitter), recently stirred the crypto world by temporarily changing his display name on X to "Kekius Maximus." The term "Kekius" is believed to derive from "kek," an internet slang for "laughing out loud," popularized in gaming culture but later associated with far-right ideologies. Interestingly, "Kek" is also the name of an ancient Egyptian deity of darkness, often depicted with a frog's head. Adding to the intrigue, Musk changed his profile picture to an image of "Pepe the Frog," a meme character frequently used by far-right groups. Although Musk didn’t explain the name or profile picture change, the move caused a significant stir in the cryptocurrency world, boosting the value of a meme coin named after "Kekius." This isn’t the first time Musk’s actions on X have influenced crypto prices. He has previously been known for his impactful commentary in the digital currency space. Musk has since reverted his name and profile picture back to Elon Musk and his original photo. #PukaarPakistan #ElonMusk #CryptoFrenzy #KekiusMaximus #MemeCoin #PepeTheFrog #Cryptocurrency #SocialMediaTrends
