Kekius Maximus (KEKIUS) meme coin woke up from slumber and saw gains of over 70% on Thursday, after tech mogul Elon Musk posted a photo that appeared to show the cartoon character.

What Happened: The Ethereum (CRYPTO:ETH)-based cryptocurrency rose 75% in the last 24 hours, while its trading volume shot up by 197% to $18.73 million. Another popular frog-themed token, Pepe PEPE/USD, also saw gains of nearly 7%, even as the broader meme coin sector saw losses.

Elon Musk's X account now has a DOGE plaque, a MAGA cap and a Kekius Maximus photo in the background.

The image was intended to show Musk's efforts in his Department of Government Efficiency initiative.

"I direct the Department of Government Efficiency, an elite team of the best and brightest, hand-picked to serve the people," Musk said in December. "Our mission is to make government work for the people, not the other way around."

Kekius Maximus, a combination of "Pepe the Frog" and "Maximus Decimus Meridius," the iconic character from the movie "Gladiator," shot to prominence after Musk used it as his X profile name on December 31.

The meme coin quickly gained attention and saw its market capitalization grow to millions. However, the gains were quickly wiped out after Musk switched back to his old avatar. Since then, the meme currency hasn't seen much activity.
