In an X post today, the Shiba Inu lead developer unveiled S.H.I.B, which looks identical to Elon Musk's D.O.G.E proposal.
Shiba Inu (SHIB) ecosystem lead Shytoshi Kusama has drawn inspiration from one of Elon Musk’s initiatives, proposing a new project that could benefit the crypto industry.
Kusama unveiled the S.H.I.B proposal in an X post today, revealing a striking similarity to Musk’s D.O.G.E initiative. While both proposals are named after the tickers of the top two meme coins by market cap, they carry distinct ideas.
Difference Between D.O.G.E and S.H.I.B
For context, Musk proposed the D.O.G.E (Department of Government Efficiency) initiative to Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump. The initiative aims to streamline government operations and potentially save trillions of dollars in tax spending.
Musk’s mention of this proposal on X had a positive impact on the price of Dogecoin (DOGE). As reported yesterday, the price of Dogecoin soared by 11%, adding $2.5 billion to the asset’s market cap after Musk elaborated on the D.O.G.E concept.
Weeks after Musk made the D.O.G.E proposal, Shiba Inu’s leader proposed the S.H.I.B initiative. S.H.I.B, which stands for Strategic Hub for Innovation in Blockchain, is Kusama’s proposal to the forthcoming president of the United States.
The S.H.I.B initiative proposes that the forthcoming U.S. administration integrate blockchain technology to boost different sectors of the country, ranging from security to the economy. Kusama believes this could help the United States create a ‘Silicon Valley of Crypto.’
Shiba Inu Lead Reminds Upcoming US President About S.H.I.B Proposal
Kusama first proposed the S.H.I.B initiative earlier this week in a blog post. He highlighted the proposal again today as a reminder to whoever becomes president.

SHIB Sees Double-Digits Gain as US Election Result Comes In
It is important to note that all polls for the 2024 U.S. election have closed, with voters now awaiting the announcement of the next president of the United States.
Early results show that Donald Trump, a strong crypto advocate, is leading the race in terms of electoral votes by a good margin. According to Associated Press data, Trump has a commanding lead of 248 electoral votes, while Vice President Kamala Harris of the Democratic Party currently has 214.
This election result appears to be bullish on the crypto market, given Trump’s pro-crypto stance. So far, the total crypto market cap is up 9.94% in 24 hours to $2.49 trillion.
As a result, Shiba Inu (SHIB) has witnessed double-digit gains of 10.42% in the past day, with a token currently priced at $0.00001932.
