埃隆·马斯克（Elon Musk

如果您需要更多证据表明埃隆·马斯克（Elon Musk）之类的功能有多强大，那么他只是在简单地更改他的名字和个人资料照片后就引起了加密代币的价值振奋

Elon Musk has sparked a 142 per cent surge in a crypto token after changing his name and profile photo on X (formerly Twitter).

埃隆·马斯克（Elon Musk）在X上更改了他的名字和个人资料照片（以前为Twitter）后，在加密代币中激增了142％的涌入。

The billionaire owner of the social media platform appeared on the app today (17 May) with a new identity: Kekius Maximus.

社交媒体平台的亿万富翁所有者今天（5月17日）以新的身份出现在该应用程序上：Kekius Maximus。

He’d also changed his leading photo to an AI-generated image of himself clad in armour, dubbing himself the ‘Emperor’.

他还将自己的领先照片更改为自己穿着盔甲的AI生成的图像，将自己配音为“皇帝”。

But what the heck does it all mean?

但是，这意味着什么？

Well, Kekius Maximus (KEKIUS) is actually a cryptocurrency meme coin, and since Musk referenced it on X, it’s surged 142 per cent in value from $0.025 to $0.063 in 24 hours.

好吧，Kekius Maximus（Kekius）实际上是一个加密货币模因硬币，自从Musk在X上引用它，其价值从24小时内的0.025美元飙升至0.025美元至0.063美元。

Its name references the 2000 film, Gladiator, and the word ‘kek’, which is an internet slang substitute for LOL and used among meme communities.

它的名字引用了2000年的电影《角斗士》和《 kek》一词，这是互联网语的替代品，在模因社区中使用。

But it’s not the first time he’s shown support for the coin - back in January he also adopted the new alter-ego, setting his profile photo to an AI-generated version of Pepe the Frog, a commonly-used character among meme-lovers and hate groups alike.

但这并不是他第一次表现出对硬币的支持 - 一月份他还采用了新的Alter-Ego，将他的个人资料照片设置为AI生成的版本Pepe the Frog，这是模因和仇恨团体中通常使用的角色。

While Pepe the Frog (created by Matt Furie) doesn't have any negative connotations, it has been adopted by far-right groups to spread racism and antisemitism on sites such as Reddit, according to the Anti-Defamation League.

根据反诽谤联盟的说法，虽然青蛙（由马特·弗里（Matt Furie）创建）没有任何负面含义，但远右派团体已经采用了它来传播种族主义和反犹太主义在诸如雷迪特（Reddit）等地点。

At that time, the cryptocurrency’s value soared by at least 700 per cent after he made the move.

当时，加密货币的价值在他采取行动后至少飙升了700％。

"Don't Mess with Kekius Maximus!", one person wrote on X following Musk's latest promotion.

“别惹凯基斯·马克西姆斯！”，一个人在马斯克的最新促销活动中写了X上的文章。

"Kekius Maximus is back, I’ve missed him", another added.

另一个补充说：“ Kekius Maximus回来了，我很想念他。”

The 53-year-old has also previously lead the charge in promoting Dogecoin, even at one point changing logos across X to be their signature Shiba Inu mascot.

这位53岁的年轻人以前还领导了促进狗狗币的指控，即使在某一时刻，将X型徽标变成了他们的标志性Shiba INU吉祥物。

KEKIUS isn't currently an experts' favourite to watch in crypto according to Crypto Times, however, Musk's ability to shift markets so drastically is no doubt alarming to many.

根据Crypto Times的说法，Kekius目前并不是专家在加密货币中观看的最爱，但是，马斯克巨大的转移市场的能力无疑会使许多人感到震惊。
