Keith Gill, better known online as Roaring Kitty, has returned to social media three years after he successfully pushed GameStop’s stock in 2021. After Gill returned, the stock shot up around 300% in only one week, mostly due to his hourly and then half-hourly releases of meme videos.
With the abundance of information, many people—including fans and lovers of cryptocurrency—were able to decrypt the movies’ concealed passphrases, while the precise meanings remained unclear.
Billy Markus, also known as Shibetoshi Nakamoto, co-creator of Dogecoin, expressed his annoyance at Gill’s posting frequency during the frenzy. Markus suggested that Roaring Kitty restrict his video uploading to every few hours rather than every few minutes, since he believed that less frequent publishing may have a greater impact.

Markus made it clear that his goal was to provide helpful guidance rather than to stop Gill from sharing his work. He underlined that posting them a bit apart may increase the impact of each one.
Additionally, DOGE disregarded any personal stake in GameStop shares and remained neutral on the matter. He saw that many of Gill’s supporters were responding defensively in response to any criticism of their alleged leader, exhibiting what he saw as a lack of critical thinking and insecurity.
Markus questioned the idea even more that Gill’s regular postings were an attempt to allay rumours that she was manipulating the stock. He maintained that it was doubtful that Roaring Kitty would become the target of such allegations if she had not already.
Rather, he proposed that Gill would be better served by deliberate substance and well-timed announcements to preserve his impact without boring his audience.
