The GameStop <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/gme/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">price</a> surged over 199% in the last 24 hours after Keith Gill, known as “<a href="https://insidebitcoins.com/news/cat-themed-cryptos-explode-after-roaring-kitty-returns-to-ignite-a-meme-coin-rally-led-by-gamestop-gme" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Roaring Kitty</a>” on X, revealed in a Reddit post that he is holding $181.4 million worth of GME stock and call options.
Known for his influential role in the 2021 GME short squeeze, the trader brought an end to his 3-year hiatus on Reddit after posting yesterday for the first time since April 2021.

Gill shared a <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1d6r5vp/gme_yolo_update_june_2_2024/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">screenshot</a> that shows he bought 5 million GME shares worth $115.7 million and allocated $65.7 million towards call options. These positions seemed to have paid off for him so far.
The trader has gained more than $9.3 million through his GME holdings, according to the screenshot. However, he is sitting on an unrealized loss of almost $2.5 million on his call options.

With the recent surge, the GameStop price is up over 225% in the last 7 days. The rest of the meme coin market did not follow GME’s trend, however, with the sector’s collective valuation registering a slight drop during the same period.
Nevertheless, the upbeat market sentiment following meteoric gains from GME could spillover to also have a positive impact on meme coin ICOs. <a href="https://insidebitcoins.com/visit/playdoge" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">PlayDoge</a>, which has managed to raise more than $1.4 million through its presale in less than six days, could be one of the main beneficiaries of any reallocation of capital.&nbsp;
Another red hot presale is <a href="https://insidebitcoins.com/visit/sealana" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Sealana (SEAL)</a> on Solana, a project that has rocketed past $3 million in funds raised.
