In brief

  • Former Aptos advisor Buzz has left the crypto project after his one-year contract ended, calling the split “mutual,” and says he’s sold his APT tokens.
  • The memer is now pointing his guerrilla marketing campaign at Facebook's parent company Meta, arguing retail investors 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.
