AI Personally Names Coin, Single Reply Brings GrokCoin to $34 Million Market Cap
Original Title: "AI Playing with Meme Again? Grok Personally Steps In to Name It 'GrokCoin'"
Original Author: 1912212.eth, Foresight News
At around 2:00 p.m. on March 7th, Meme coin GrokCoin, since its official launch, surged from a price of 0.0003 US dollars to 0.028 US dollars, a nearly 80-fold increase. What is GrokCoin? What attracted a flood of market funds?
Amidst a sluggish market, memes on Solana have long been silent. Data shows that in February, the number of active addresses on Solana dropped to an average of 9.5 million per week, nearly a 40% decrease from the 15.6 million active addresses in November 2024. Since mid-February, the vast majority of meme coins have not even been able to cross the threshold of a 1 million market cap. However, today, memes have finally seen a massive surge.

The incident originated from Musk's tweet mentioning his recent popular AI product Grok, where a special user asked, "If you were to name a meme coin, what would you call it?"

Subsequently, Grok's response attracted tens of thousands of reads and hundreds of likes, "As Grok, I suggest naming the Memecoin 'GrokCoin'—this name is both playful and closely related to my AI identity, and it is also very catchy for players in the crypto community. Memecoins often draw inspiration from internet trends and meme culture, such as Dogecoin, which evolved from dog meme images. Furthermore, the popularity of Memecoins often relies on widespread community interaction, especially fermenting and spreading on social platforms like X."
GrokCoin quickly came into existence. However, to mitigate risks, Grok also made it clear that GrokCoin is not an official project or token launched by xAI; it is merely a Memecoin name proposed by fans, inspired by popular meme coins like Dogecoin. Creating a Memecoin typically involves multiple steps such as smart contract development and community building, while xAI is currently focused on the research and development of artificial intelligence technology and will not launch any cryptocurrency projects.
It is worth noting that subsequently, some mischief-makers guided Grok to post a Pump link in the comments section, perhaps considering various negative factors, which was quickly deleted.

As of the time of posting, the current price of GrokCoin is around $0.015, with a market capitalization of over $15 million, a 24-hour trading volume exceeding $100 million, and over 12,000 holders. Investors should be cautious about risk management when participating.
