The former pro wrestler, Hulk Hogan, said the now-deleted X posts <a href="https://bitcoinworld.co.in/hulk-hogan-solana-meme-coin-hulk-wipes-out-17m-in-a-rugpull/">promoting</a> a meme coin that dumped within hours of launching weren’t from him. 
Retired pro wrestler “Hulk Hogan” claims he wasn’t responsible for multiple “now-deleted” X posts spruiking the Solana meme coin HULKAMANIA (HULK), which pumped then dumped within two hours.

“Please do not take notice of any posts posted today,” Hogan — real name Terry Gene Bollea — wrote In a June 5 Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/C740UNOOXm9/">post</a>. “They are not from me and will be promptly removed.” 
The entirety of Hogan’s X posts have been removed, but at the time of writing Google Search’s cache shows Hogan’s X account made several posts promoting a Solana-based token HULK. 
“No one can compete with $HULK not even your mother!” one cached post said, seemingly pitting it against rapper Iggy Azalea’s Mother Iggy (MOTHER) meme coin. Another shared a link to the token on DEX Screener. 
Further <a href="https://twitter.com/MattBinder/status/1798823681998897321">posts</a> shared by Mashable reporter Matt Binder, which Bitcoinworld couldn’t independently verify, show a video of Hogan that is made to seem to refer to the token launch, but Binder notes its a video from December promoting a karaoke night. 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"> 
 Hulk Hogan’s social media accounts &amp; website promoted a <a href="https://twitter.com/search?q=%24HULK&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">$HULK</a> crypto token today, jumping on the recent celeb memecoin trend 
 it pumped big, millions of dollars, &amp; then dumped 
 all the posts are now deleted. there’s a new post now claiming that the posts were not from him <a href="https://t.co/hDuYVLgNQu">pic.twitter.com/hDuYVLgNQu</a>

HULK reached a peak market capitalization of $18.8 million on June 6, 7:40 pm UTC — just over an hour and a half after it launched. 
It then dumped to a market cap of $2 million 20 minutes later, where it has remained since, according to DEX Screener.

Crypto analytics firm Bubblemaps claimed its data shows five wallets purchased 15% of the HULK supply on the meme token launch platform pump.fun before Hogan’s X account shared the token. 
The wallets had sold $200,000 worth of $1.5 million in unrealized gains as of around June 6, 8:00 pm UTC, Bubblemaps said. 
It’s not clear if Hogan’s account was hacked, and if it was, how it happened. Hogan’s team did not respond to a request for comment. 
The claimed hack comes amid a slate of B-list celebrities launching their own crypto tokens. 
Reality TV star Caitlyn Jenner along with rappers Iggy Azalea and Rich the Kid launched and endorsed Solana-based tokens last month. 
All of them — besides Azalea’s MOTHER — have tanked by over 60%. MOTHER recently hit an all-time high as the Fancy rapper has gained support for vowing to clean up her token.
