Elon Musk Impresses the PEPE Community with a Surprisingly Hot Tweet
Elon Musk, the tech billionaire behind Tesla, SpaceX, and the owner of the social media platform X, has once again proven his talent for stirring up his online community. Known for his interest in memes, Musk recently posted some posts featuring the iconic meme Pepe the Frog, known for its long history as an internet symbol and also the inspiration behind the cryptocurrency PEPE. The latest tweet from him, including a Pepe meme to highlight how different groups perceive news and information, has attracted significant attention. The meme depicts two groups: the 'normal people' who accept the truth of basic events like 2x2=4, and others who doubt the reliability of the truth, demanding 'sources'. Musk's caption amplifies his continuous criticism of misinformation and highlights his belief that X has become the most reliable platform for news. This post has received countless reactions from the X community, with users sharing their own PEPE memes to support Musk's message. Many crypto enthusiasts also joined in, celebrating Musk's use of this beloved meme. The impact of Musk's PEPE meme on cryptocurrency It's interesting, this is not Musk's first post related to Pepe the Frog this week. Earlier, Musk shared an image of Pepe portrayed as an ancient Roman general in the Roman Arena, with the caption "Kekius Maximus," a reference to Ridley Scott's iconic film Gladiator. That post coincided with a 14% increase in the PEPE cryptocurrency, reflecting the direct impact that Musk's social media activity often has on the market. This trend is not new. Musk has a history of influencing the market, especially in the cryptocurrency field, through his tweets. From Dogecoin to PEPE, his posts often ignite enthusiasm and drive up prices among cryptocurrency investors. PEPE, X and Political Climate Musk's increase in posting Pepe memes coincided with the increase in political discussions about X. After the US presidential election in November, where Musk openly supported the winning candidate, X has faced scrutiny, especially from mainstream critics. Musk frequently criticizes mainstream media, believing it is controlled by biased forces, while positioning X as a more transparent and reliable news source. In addition to memes, Musk has used X to promote his AI projects, such as the upgraded chatbot Grok. For example, the Pepe meme, inspired by Rome, is said to have been created using Grok, showcasing the creative capabilities of Musk's xAI startup company. The power of memes in Musk's hands This week, a series of posts related to PEPE highlights the talent of using memes to attract and energize Musk's online community. Whether it's sparking conversations, influencing market trends, or simply entertaining his large following, Musk's meme game is still very strong. While the online community is eagerly awaiting his next post, Musk continues to leverage his influence to shape online discourse—and sometimes the financial markets—one meme at a time.
