Who is Kekius Maximus?

"Kekius Maximus" is a mix of two well-known things from the internet: the character Pepe the Frog and Maximus, the gladiator from the movie Gladiator. The name is also linked to a new cryptocurrency token called KEKIUS. After Musk changed his name and picture, the value of KEKIUS grew by more than 500%. This new coin became very popular in a short time. Other coins inspired by Kekius Maximus also grew quickly in value, with some going up by 200% in just a few hours.

Why Did Musk Change His Name?

Musk didn’t give a clear reason for changing his name and picture. However, he did make a few funny posts on X. In one post, he called himself "just a frog" and laughed when someone joked that journalists would now have to call him "Elon Musk, aka Kekius Maximus." It seems like Musk is having fun with internet culture and memes, which he has done many times before.

This change has caused a lot of excitement on social media, as Musk continues to surprise his followers with his playful and creative posts.
