Outside of WSB memes, how well known is DFV as a monicker vs roaring kitty. To the regular person, both are not household names. To anyone who is really invested in the story, they'd know both. The very small niche of people who know one but not the other isn't worth Reuters having to include profanity (not that I object to profanity).

To anyone, like me, who has observed this from a safe distance : DFV is a widely-reported username. Like, you'd read it in a short news piece about the whole debacle. This post is the first time I see "Roaring Kitty".

I had heard about DFV but not Roaring Kitty.

Same. Or rather, I had vaguely heard Roaring Kitty but didn’t know it was the same person. Learned it just now.

DFV = DeepFuckingValue = reddit name

Roaring Kitty = youtube channel

I don’t think that’s true. Yes, anyone aware of or involved in the story knows DeepFuckingValue, but I often see people online—even people who worship him as their hero—surprised that he’s not some mysterious figure, but had been putting out YouTube videos for months. His videos still have shockingly low view counts considering how famous and pivotal a figure he’s become.
