Summary

Gigachad (GIGA) is a Solana-based memecoin launched in 2024 that draws on the "Gigachad" internet meme of Russian bodybuilder Ernest Khalimov. The project describes itself as community-run with no founder allocation, but it has been linked to a $3 million securities-fraud case against one of its most prominent promoters, Joshua Goltry, and to a $6 million phishing theft from a large holder in November 2024. No regulator has brought an action against the GIGA token or its organizers directly.
