Elon Musk has surprised all his followers (and those who are not) with a new name change on his social network X to "Kekius Maximus", for which he has not given any explanation. The owner of Tesla and the social network also changed his profile picture to an image of "Pepe the Frog", a popular cartoon character
The tycoon has not given any explanation regarding the name or the new profile image in which the character 'Pepe the Frog', a meme that has been used by right-wing groups, is shown in Roman military dress. Musk's choice of his profile picture has generated criticism and debate over whether this change has ideological connotations or is simply provocative humor
The decision has sparked all sorts of speculation about the reasons behind it. The impact has even been felt in the cryptocurrency realm, where the value of the memecoin 'Kek' has experienced a remarkable increase and has seen its price soar after Musk's alias change. Although it has not been confirmed whether the mogul owns assets related to this type of cryptocurrency, his history suggests that any move he makes could significantly influence the market.
