With the support of the rally in the broader cryptocurrency market, there’s a strong undercurrent in the memecoin sector.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) Price Rally

The recent surge in the SHIB price comes amid massive whale activity. Lookonchain’s data reveals a significant event: a whale recently sold a considerable amount of PEPE tokens, totaling 1.97 trillion and reaching a staggering $6.07 million. Following this sale, the whale pocketed a profit of $3.49 million. Subsequently, the whale shifted focus to Shiba Inu, purchasing 75.9 billion SHIB tokens valued at $893,000.

Another major contributing factor to the Shiba Inu (SHIB) price rally is the staggering 30000% surge in burn rate recorded on March 1st. In the past 24 hours, the destruction of 3.75 million SHIB tokens has contributed to a continuous reduction in the meme coin’s supply, prompting increased optimism within the global crypto community. The total tokens burnt from Shiba Inu’s initial supply have now reached around 410.70 trillion SHIB, leaving a circulating supply of 581.65 billion coins.

Lucie, a marking specialist within the Shiba Inu ecosystem, anticipates an 800% surge in the Shiba Inu price. Drawing parallels with the 2021 bull run, Lucie points out a remarkable 800% increase within a single week, even in the absence of any documented burns.

$SHIB surged 800% in a week without any burns in 2021.

Eager to see the outcome in 2024.

Slow burns and steady demand are essential.$SHIB is poised for growth and waits for no one.
