vestors have been forgotten and that the company has strong fundamentals. – Buzz previously helped pump APT’s token value with his memes, but Meta is roughly 2,619 times bigger than Aptos—so he’s set himself a real challenge. Pseudonymous social media memer turned crypto advisor BuzzlamicJihad has left his position at Aptos, claiming the partnership had run its course
The former Aptos advisor has turned his attention to the META stock as he ramps up his trademark meme campaign for the company. BuzzlamicJihad, who is called Buzz by his friends and family, rose to prominence in early 2025, when his unofficial “community takeover” of crypto project Aptos helped pump the token’s value. It was the result of months of fostering a community of die-hard investors and posting memes, popularizing the terms “Aptos lookin’ good here,” and “sidelined?” In October 2025, Buzz officially joined Aptos as an advisor, as the memer told Decrypt that he wanted to fix the project’s image problem and position it as a premium stablecoin network.
A year later, that contract came to an end and Buzz did not opt to extend. “I didn’t see it going anywhere else, and some of the plans I had didn’t work out as intended,” Buzz told Decrypt. “So, I didn’t bother extending it and they didn’t seem willing to either anyways, so it’s mutual.” Aptos did not respond to Decrypt’s request for comment. Since the start of the month, APT has dropped 10.7% to a $607 million market capitalization, per Decrypt data. Buzz told Decrypt he has sold his APT.
