Three petitions trying to get Amazon to accept SHIB are gaining traction and together have garnered over 173,000 signatures on Change.org
The Shiba Inu community seems to be seeking out billionaire Jeff Bezos to start patronizing SHIB since the wealthiest person in the world, Elon Musk, refuses to do that and sticks to Dogecoin only.
SHIB asks Amazon for new signatures
Currently, three petitions on Change.org have gathered around 173,373 signatures in total:
“SHIB4Amazon – Ask Amazon to add SHIB as a payment” – signed by 47,526 people.
“Please ask Amazon to start accepting SHIBA INU as a payment method” – signed by 44,878 people.
“Please accept Shiba Inu cryptocurrency as payment for Amazon products and services” – signed by 80,969 people.
The person who started the petition with the most signatures to date, Justin Taylor, wrote on the petition page on Change.org that the SHIB community wants Amazon to seriously spend time considering accepting. SHIB for goods and services on its platform. .
He believes that if it happens, it will bring benefits to both Shiba Inu users and Amazon.
Amazon has changed the world many times since its inception. We humbly request that Amazon once again do so by accepting Shiba Inu.
As for the petition for SHIB to be listed by Robinhood, the number of signatures has reached 479,162 to date.
Elon Musk rejects SHIB, how about Jeff Bezos?
In a recent tweet, head of Tesla and big Dogecoin lover Elon Musk rejected Shiba Inu, saying that he does not hold any of it.
This turned the SHIB community away from the person who was building space rockets aimed at Mars and, apparently, made them look for another patron. By launching petitions for Amazon, one may think that the community is hoping another influential and “space flying” billionaire will get interested in the meme coin.
However, Bezos plans to step down as CEO of Amazon later this year, leaving his post to Andy Jassy. Besides, Jeff has not yet been caught tweeting anything about crypto—unless he has been hodling Bitcoin or Doge on the quiet.
