What Happens If Shiba and PEPE Burn 50% of Their Tokens?
When I see people commenting on my post about whether PEPE and Shiba Inu can make them rich, it feels like deja vu. So many are comparing these coins to Bitcoin, confidently predicting theyâll hit $0.1 or even $1 if 50% of the supply is burned. Honestly, I think thatâs wishful thinking. These coins have an astronomical supplyâover 400 trillion tokensâand burning half of that wonât magically create value. Burning tokens only works if thereâs enough demand to balance the reduced supply. If they burned half the tokens overnight, it could actually destabilize the market. Prices might spike briefly, but the lack of liquidity could scare away serious investors. To me, itâs like cutting a cake into fewer slicesâthe pieces look bigger, but the cake itself hasnât grown.
I also notice how people get caught up in the low price of these tokens and start dreaming of life-changing wealth. But the math just doesnât support it. For PEPE or Shiba Inu to hit $0.1, theyâd need a market cap bigger than the entire crypto market. And $1? Thatâs not just unrealisticâitâs impossible. These are meme coins, and their very nature makes such prices out of reach. Unlike Bitcoin, which had scarcity and a revolutionary purpose, these coins thrive on hype and speculation, not long-term fundamentals.
That said, I think thereâs potential for short-term gains if youâre careful. I see these coins as speculative plays, not long-term investments. If youâre getting involved, focus on short-term opportunities. Iâd set clear profit targets, watch the market closely, and cash out when the time is right. Timing is everything because what goes up fast often comes down just as quickly. For me, itâs about being realistic and not risking more than I can afford to lose. These are memes, not miracles.
