Summary

On August 24, 2026, Kylie Jenner's verified X account (roughly 39.5 million followers) was reportedly hacked and used, without her knowledge or consent, to promote a Pump.fun-launched Solana memecoin called $KYLIE. The token's market cap spiked to roughly $1.2 million before collapsing 68-90% within minutes of the compromised posts being deleted. Kylie Jenner is the victim of this incident, not its perpetrator: this dossier concerns the account-hijacking campaign and the $KYLIE token, not any wrongdoing by Jenner, and evidence indicates the incident is one instance of a recurring scheme that has also hit the SpaceX/Starlink, Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev, and 'Roaring Kitty' (Keith Gill) X accounts in 2026.
