Elon Musk changed his X handle to Kekius Maximus again on Friday, May 17, 2025, thus indirectly promoting Ethereum (ETH)-based memecoin KEKIUS. At the tail end of 2024, Musk changed his X handle to Kekius Maximus and used an image of Pepe, a frog dressed in a gladiator costume.
As a result, KEKIUS memecoin was born earlier this year on the Ethereum and Solana networks. During the first time that Musk changed his X handle to Kekius Maximus, KEKIUS price surged over 900 percent and surpassed a market cap of $380 million.
Following the move by Musk to change his X handle to Kekius Maximus, the price of KEKIUS memecoin surged over 100 percent on Friday to trade at about $0.055 at the time of this writing. The small-cap memecoin, with a fully diluted valuation of about $55 million and a 24-hour average traded volume of about $37 million, confirmed a bullish breakout potentially towards its all-time high.
Moreover, the Ethereum-based memecoin has received significant attention from speculative crypto traders, currently amounting to over 26k on-chain holders. Additionally, the KEKIUS team has pooled over 452 WETH, currently worth about $1.16 million, to provide liquidity on different DeFi protocols.
Most importantly, KEKIUS memecoin has already been listed by top-tier crypto exchanges led by Gate.io, and MEXC, among others. As a result, KEKIUS price is well positioned to rally exponentially in the coming months, especially amid the rising calls for an altseason.
