With over 75k tweets mentioning his name, many shared their collective hype over the “chaos” that Roaring Kitty is causing with his recent actions.
“Roaring Kitty is down $235,000,000 United States Dollars on the day, with 600,000 concurrent live viewers, and is absolutely unhinged on a YouTube live stream with no gameplan,” said one user. “This is the type of chaotic energy that not even crypto can keep up with.
Another commented, comparing the influencer to Steve Jobs: “Roaring Kitty is the greatest business communicator since Steve Jobs. Dude shows up 30 minutes to the livestream. Builds the tension up to 11. Shows up on the livestream in a fake bandage and cast. And the first thing he says is “oh sh*t”.”
