New Coin: ELONREAPER, Musk Transforms into "Regulatory Grim Reaper" to Sweep Away Bureaucracy

Per Trend News monitoring, prominent crypto influencer @cb_doge recently shared a viral meme depicting Elon Musk as the Grim Reaper—sinister grin, scythe in hand—cutting through a “Bureaucracy” gate emblazoned with U.S. and EU flags. The meme features a satirical twist on Oppenheimer’s quote: “I am become Meme, Destroyer of Bureaucracy,” framing memes as a weapon to cut through red tape. It quickly flooded social media with widespread shares. The meme dropped earlier this month, coinciding with foreign media confirming the premature dissolution of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)—a reform body once billed to slash $2 trillion in federal spending but short-lived. Around the same time, EU fining actions faced cross-the-board criticism. The meme satirizes the “sound and fury” of reform efforts, acting as an emotional outlet for anti-bureaucracy groups. On-chain, the $ELONREAPER token (tied to the regulatory Grim Reaper theme) reacted: 15 tokens bearing the same name hit $230,000 in trading volume within an hour.
