Roaring Kitty’s Back, Baby! Or Is It a Purr-fect Scam?

by

Oh, snap! Keith Gill, the man, the myth, the Roaring Kitty, roared back onto X (formerly Twitter) after 16 months of catnapping! But instead of his usual GameStop rants, he dropped a Solana Pump.fun contract address faster than a cat drops a hairball. Naturally, the internet went bananas, with traders screaming, “Hack! Hack! It’s a hack!”

The May 11 post was as subtle as a brick to the face: just a token address and a cartoon clip. No captions, no livestreams, no deep market insights. Just a cryptic meow in the night. Was it Kitty, or was it a cunning imposter? The plot thickens like a bowl of overcooked gravy!

16 Months of Silence Broken by a Meme Coin? Meow-velous!

At 21:13 GMT, the post appeared, pointing to a fresh-out-of-the-litter-box Solana meme coin called Red Kitten Crew (RKC). Minutes later, the account followed up with an image and the text “red bandit crew 4 life”. Because nothing says “I’m back” like a meme coin and a catchy slogan. The posts? Deleted faster than a cat video goes viral. Classic Kitty… or is it?

Gill also hinted he’s holding GameStop (GME) and RKC, causing the RockyCat price to surge 25%. Because nothing says “financial advice” like a cryptic tweet and a cartoon cat. Meow-nificent!

Here’s the kicker: the two RKC tokens are as related as a cat and a cucumber. The Solana Red Kitten Crew (fresh from Pump.fun) is riding the Roaring Kitty hype train, possibly via a hacked account. Meanwhile, the older BNB Chain RockyCat is an unrelated underdog meme project with its own fair-launch story. No connection, no shared team, just a purr-fect name collision for opportunistic pumps. Meow-scam!

RKC went from Pump.fun’s bonding curve to Raydium faster than a cat runs from a vacuum cleaner. It peaked at a $5.97 million market cap before settling at $4 million. Trading volume? $2.55 million in 24 hours. That’s a lot of catnip!

Gill’s usual schtick? GameStop, options trading, and ad hoc YouTube livestreams. Meme coins? Not his style. Unless, of course, he’s gone full cat-astic and decided to shake things up. Or, you know, it’s a hack. Probably a hack.

Why Traders Are Crying “Hack!” Louder Than a Cat in Heat

GameStop holders and on-chain analysts smelled a rat (or a cat) immediately. The sudden return, the lack of explanation, the Pump.fun launch-it’s like Kitty forgot his own brand. Sounds familiar? Remember Michael Saylor’s MicroStrategy account breach? Or Kylian Mbappe’s X profile pushing a meme token? History repeats itself, but with more fur.

Pump.fun? More like Pump.scam. Research says 98.6% of tokens launched there are scams or wash trades. So, yeah, proceed with caution. Or don’t. Your money, your funeral.

Gill’s been quieter than a cat in a yoga studio since the post. Until he speaks up, traders are treating RKC like a hot potato-unverified, high-risk, and possibly radioactive. Meow-ch!

GameStop shares? They went from “to the moon” to “back to Earth” faster than a cat jumps off a couch. As of this writing, GME is trading at $23.19. Because even cats know when to bail.
