A very lucky cryptocurrency investor bought the Troll (TROLL) memecoin just minutes after Elon Musk changed his Twitter biography to “Chief Troll Officer,” turning 10,000 USD into over 1 million USD in less than 10 days.
According to Etherscan data, the trader’s 4.3 Ether worth 10,000 USD was converted into 19 trillion TROLL tokens. By selling 9 trillion TROLL tokens, he reached over 1 million USD, and the remaining 10 trillion tokens are currently worth 864,000 USD.
TROLL saw a surge of over 150,000% shortly after Musk changed his X biography. This incident reminded of Dogecoin’s rise in value in the past with Musk’s tweets.
The GORK memecoin, which emerged inspired by Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence project, had also seen a big rise. However, a negative post by Twitter (X) about Grok’s social media accounts and websites affected investors who were late to open transactions.
