Keith Gill, known online as Roaring Kitty, sparked renewed speculation in both crypto and stock markets after his verified X account posted a Solana Pump.fun contract address following 16 months of inactivity. The unexpected message led many to question whether the account had been compromised.
The post, which was later deleted, appeared on May 11 and contained a Solana token address associated with a newly launched meme coin called Red Kitten Crew (RKC), along with a short animated clip. Minutes later, another post surfaced with the phrase “red bandit crew 4 life” and an image referencing the same token. The unusual activity quickly drew attention from traders and analysts across social media.
Following the posts, the Solana-based RKC token rose sharply. It climbed to a market capitalization of nearly $6 million before pulling back to around $4 million. Trading volume exceeded $2.5 million within 24 hours as speculators moved into the newly launched meme coin.
The token also completed Pump.fun’s bonding curve process and moved to Raydium shortly after launch.
Some users questioned the legitimacy of the activity because Gill has not previously promoted meme coins or participated in Pump.fun launches. His public reputation has largely been built around GameStop stock analysis, options trading, and long-form livestream discussions focused on value investing strategies.
Crypto traders also compared the situation to earlier social media hacks involving major public figures, including incidents linked to Michael Saylor and football star Kylian Mbappe, where compromised accounts were allegedly used to promote questionable crypto projects.
GameStop stock initially rose by more than 13% before reversing course. Shares later traded near $23.19 as uncertainty about the account activity continued to spread.
Gill has not publicly confirmed whether the posts were legitimate. As a result, traders have remained cautious about the Red Kitten Crew token and its connection to the Roaring Kitty brand.
