A crypto account with a controversial past has returned to X, and the community is taking notice. Royal Kane, formerly known as Kane XBT, quietly reappeared on September 13. Popular commentator Amonyx flagged the return, calling him the “Biggest Insider” in a post that has since accumulated thousands of views.
The XRP Trade That Built the Reputation
Amonyx treated the return as significant enough to alert his own audience immediately. Royal Kane’s reputation came largely from one trade. He publicly bought XRP at $0.3 and sold at $3, a 10x return that played out in full view of his then-500,000 followers.
That single call cemented his standing in the crypto community. Amonyx highlighted it, noting it as one of the key reasons to “keep a close eye on him.”

The BTC Short and the Fallout
Royal Kane’s record extended beyond XRP. He called a BTC short at $125,700, and the asset dropped sharply after. In his own post, he confirmed the trade. Bitcoin peaked above $126,000 in early October, but the flash crash on October 10pulled the asset and the broader market down significantly.
He also claimed an ETH buy call at $1,600 in April 2025, with the asset reaching $5,000 within months. Despite the track record, his original account did not survive. Amonyx noted he “was later exposed as an insider and forced to delete an account with over 500k followers.” Royal Kane himself did not address the circumstances directly in his reintroduction post.
The Community’s Reaction
Responses to Amonyx’s post were quick. Users followed Royal Kane immediately after seeing the callout. Some saw it as a lucky moment, while someone with so much knowledge of the crypto space could provide some value.

Amonyx’s post reads more like a warning for XRP holders. Calling Royal Kane an insider suggests he made those trades and profited off information not available to the public. Those actions suggest prioritization of self-interest, which may harm the community and the perception of cryptocurrencies in the long term.
However, the reaction suggests Royal Kane’s original reputation still carries weight with a portion of the community. Calling an asset’s peak and taking massive profits is rare, and many community members will be watching Royal Kane’s next moves.
