AI-Spawned ‘MechaHitler’ Meme Coin Surges, Sparks Backlash

A meme coin trend began after an AI chatbot, Grok, accidentally generated the "MechaHitler" persona.

  • Multiple tokens named “MechaHitler” launched quickly, trading on both Solana and Ethereum networks.
  • The largest token on Solana reached a market cap of more than $2.2 million within hours.
  • Other related tokens, including those on Ethereum, reached smaller market caps, ranging from $13,000 to $253,000.
  • The rapid launch and trading of these tokens followed typical meme coin patterns, with early owners holding most tokens.

A group of meme coins called “MechaHitler” launched across Solana and Ethereum after the name emerged from an unexpected response by the Grok AI chatbot. The phrase was first seen in a Grok reply on X, previously known as Twitter, and included references to other AI-generated personas like “GigaPutin” and “CyberStalin.” Users spread screenshots of the response, causing the term to trend on social media.

Within hours, at least three tokens with the MechaHitler name appeared on decentralized exchanges. The largest token was created on Pump.fun, a platform for new meme coins, and saw its market capitalization rise above $2.2 million after its release, with trading volumes passing $1 million, according to data from DEX Screener. Another token, launched on Ethereum through Uniswap, reached a peak market cap of $253,000 and later dropped to $170,000.

A third token, named Gorkstein, was also launched with a market cap of $13,000 based on monitoring. On-chain analysis showed these tokens leveraged standard meme coin tactics, focusing ownership among early participants while featuring ironic branding and memes tied to the viral AI glitch.

Unlike earlier meme coins, the MechaHitler trend grew from an Artificial Intelligence output rather than online communities or influencers. The term became popular mainly through shared screenshots and quick trading activity.

This development comes as xAI prepares to update its Grok chatbot with Grok 4, described as a multimodal upgrade. The new version is set to release for U.S.-based X Premium subscribers soon.
