SHIB supporters are calling on Elon Musk to burn Shiba Inu tokens, saying it would make him "more cool than Vitalik Buterin." The community wants the tech billionaire to help reduce SHIB supply through token burns.
The Shiba Inu community is asking Elon Musk to burn SHIB tokens just like Ethereum's Vitalik Buterin did in 2021. It's a smart move that could seriously impact SHIB price if the Tesla CEO actually does it.
What This Could Mean for SHIB Price
Now the SHIB army is daring Musk to top that legendary burn. With his influence and social media power, a similar move could send SHIB price through the roof. The community is basically challenging his ego – telling him he'll "never be more cool than Vitalik" unless he burns SHIB. That kind of reverse psychology might just work on someone who loves being the coolest tech guy around.

Why Vitalik's Shiba Inu (SHIB) Burn Matters
Back in 2021, SHIB's creator Ryoshi sent Vitalik Buterin half of the entire SHIB supply – 500 trillion coins. Instead of cashing out, Vitalik sent almost all those tokens to a dead wallet, removing them from circulation forever. He later said he didn't believe in the coin and didn't want to mess with its price. The remaining tokens went to help India fight COVID-19.

SHIB Army Challenges Elon Musk
It started when @Shibizens tagged Musk in a post about memes, reminding everyone that SHIB is "built different" and that "@elonmusk would understand." Then SHIB enthusiast Luca Wizard jumped in with a direct challenge: "@elonmusk should burn $SHIB 🔥, otherwise it will never be more cool than @VitalikButerin."
The community knows Musk has moved crypto markets with just tweets before. If he actually burned SHIB tokens, the price impact could be huge.
