SpaceXAI Manager Calls Crypto ‘Insane’: 2 Solana Meme Coins Jump Up to 40%
Two Solana meme coins climbed on Friday after a viral X (Twitter) post pulled a flood of token pitches into its replies. Jimothy The Raccoon (JIMOTHY) rose 41% in 24 hours.
Bullshit Coin (BULLSHIT), a Solana token built on self-aware jokes about meme coin culture, gained 21% over the same window. Neither move followed a project announcement.
How One X Post Moved Two Solana Meme Coins
Nate Esparza, a senior technical product manager for ads at SpaceXAI, wrote on Friday morning that the crypto community on X is “insane.”

SpaceXAI is the company Elon Musk formed in February by folding his artificial intelligence venture xAI into SpaceX.
The viral post saw traders answer with raccoon images, green bull graphics and direct pitches for their tokens.
JIMOTHY trades near $0.0096 with a market cap of about $9.7 million, according to Coingecko data. BULLSHIT sits near $0.0038.
Volume told the sharper story. BULLSHIT turned over roughly $4.7 million in 24 hours, more than its entire market value. Thin Solana meme coin markets often trade that way.
Meanwhile, the wider sector has leaned on the same loop all year. Attention arrives first and liquidity follows. Neither token carries a roadmap, a treasury or a product, which leaves social reach as the only visible driver.
Why the Jimothy Meme Keeps Pulling Bids
Jimothy is a real raccoon in Seattle’s Ballard neighborhood with short spine syndrome, a congenital condition that leaves him short and rounded. Marketing specialist Kiana Hall filmed him in July, and the clip drew millions of views.
An unusually round raccoon in Seattle nicknamed “Jimothy” has gone viral, inspiring murals, tattoos, and even a city proclamation.

City recognition, a mural and a token followed. The Solana token launch rode that fame to a 186% gain in July.
Musk has amplified the theme before. On August 8, he posted a raccoon video that sent JIMOTHY up 331% within hours. He has not posted about Friday’s exchange.
Friday’s move was smaller and arrived without him. That gap matters, because it suggests the reply machine now moves the Jimothy price chart without a headline account attached. Whether these gains survive the weekend will show how much of the bid was attention and how much was conviction.
