Bitcoin Burger Ibratv

2024Audio / TikTok sound memedeclining

Bitcoin Burger IbraTV is a French-language TikTok audio meme built around a male text-to-speech voice repeating the words "Bitcoin," "burger," and "IbraTV" at varying speeds. It originated in June 2024 and quickly spawned a wave of copycat videos, each swapping in a new trio of a random noun, a food item, and a French YouTuber or influencer.

Overview

The meme is simple in structure: a robotic male text-to-speech voice reads out three words in rapid succession, looping at different speeds. The original trio was "Bitcoin, burger, IbraTV," paired with a three-panel image showing the Bitcoin logo, a black burger from IbraTV's Black and White Burger brand, and a photo of Russian-French YouTuber IbraTV1. The format's appeal came from its absurd randomness and the hypnotic repetition of the TTS voice, making it prime material for "brain stuck on loop" humor.

Each copycat followed a strict formula: pick a random word, pick a food, pick a French content creator. The combination didn't need to make sense. That was the point.

On June 2nd, 2024, TikTok user @bitcoinburgeribratv uploaded a video using a male text-to-speech voice repeating "Bitcoin, burger, IbraTV" while displaying a three-panel image of each item. The Bitcoin logo sat next to a black burger from IbraTV's restaurant brand, Black and White Burger, and a photo of IbraTV himself. Within 12 days, the video picked up roughly 86,400 plays and 10,600 likes1.

The account kept posting variations throughout early June. A follow-up on June 4th featured a parody Sigma Phonk edit with an AI-generated image of a pregnant IShowSpeed being held by Cristiano Ronaldo, pulling in over 84,000 plays and 13,000 likes in 10 days1.

How It Spread

The original TikTok sound took off almost immediately. By June 12th, other creators were using the audio for their own content. TikToker @billcollector480 posted a slow fade-in video captioned "Pov: Mon cerveau le 14 juin de 8h à 12h" ("POV: My brain on June 14th from 8 AM to 12 PM," translated from French), racking up over 167,600 plays and 21,800 likes in just two days1.

The real explosion came from creators building their own three-word trios. On June 11th, @metro.couscous.inoxtag posted a version saying "Metro, couscous, Inoxtag," which hit over 549,500 plays and 73,600 likes in three days1. A day later, @attilazro dropped "Trampoline, sushi, Michou," pulling 391,800 plays and 54,600 likes in two days1. Every iteration stuck to the same template: one random word, one food, one French YouTuber.

How to Use This Meme

The format is straightforward:

1

Pick three words following the pattern: a random noun or concept, a food item, and a French-speaking YouTuber or influencer.

2

Use a male text-to-speech voice to read the three words in a loop at varying speeds.

3

Create a three-panel image showing each item side by side.

4

Post it as a TikTok using either the original sound or a fresh TTS recording.

Fun Facts

The burger in the original video wasn't random. It referenced IbraTV's actual restaurant brand, Black and White Burger, making it one of the few meme elements with a real-world connection to the featured creator1.

The parody Sigma Phonk edit included an AI-generated image of a pregnant IShowSpeed held by Cristiano Ronaldo, blending multiple meme formats into one chaotic video1.

The format worked exclusively within French-speaking internet culture, with every variation naming a French YouTuber or influencer.
