Roaring Kitty Resurfaces on Social Media, Returns with Cryptic Messages
Keith Gill, more popularly known as “Roaring Kitty” or “DeepFuckingValue”, made an unexpected return to Twitter on Sunday. The widely celebrated return follows a hiatus that lasted nearly three years, leaving his followers beaming with anticipation and speculation about his whereabouts or what his next crypto moves would be.
Who Is Roaring Kitty?
Gill rose to prominence in 2021 as one of the key figures behind the GameStop stock buzz. His bold investment calls, which he shared on Reddit’s WallStreetBets forum, led thousands of retail investors to rally behind GameStop, causing its stock price to skyrocket massively.
The price surge, which he predicted, was so shocking that the profits he made from his investment earned him a hearing as he was called to testify before the US Congress House Committee on Financial Services at the time.
On February 18, 2021, during the hearing, Gill cleared any notions that he may be an institutional investor or a hedge fund. Part of his statement at the time reads:
“I’m just an individual whose investment in GameStop, and posts on social media are based upon my own research and analysis.”
Now, after months of relative silence on social media, Gill has resurfaced on Twitter, sending the investing community into a frenzy. His return, however, has been met with a mix of excitement and curiosity. Some of his followers can’t wait to hear his thoughts on the current state of the market and his latest investment strategies. That is, if he has any. Others, however, wonder why he is making an appearance at this particular moment in time.
Investment Community Anticipates
Interestingly, Gill has taken off from where he left after tweeting in his typical cryptic manner. His return tweet was an image post of a man sitting up in his seat and holding a video game controller. Although he did not mention anything related to GameStop, the price of GME immediately doubled before a 1,900% surge in a Solana-based tribute coin, also named GME.
The image appears to suggest a statement along the line of “let’s do this”, leaving his followers speculating that he may be gearing up for another big play. In all of this, though, one thing is clear. Gill’s influence on the market remains significant. At least, that is what the engagement on his post suggests. His ability to influence retail investors has also not gone unnoticed by Wall Street. Therefore, his return to social media is sure to attract attention from participants in the financial markets.
