Over 1.17 Billion Shiba Inu Tokens Burned as Shibarium Community Actively Reduces Supply

Highlights
- About 1.17 billion Shiba Inu coins were burned by its community this week which increased the scarcity of the tokens by almost 5.62% compared to last week.
- Shibarium has now handled 1.188 billion transactions, reaching close to 100 million in the past 24 hours.
- The community is actively involved in burning tokens which enhances Shiba Inu’s place in the world of cryptocurrency.
The Shiba Inu community achieved a big goal in burning tokens on May 31, 2025. The ShibTorch system which burns SHIB tokens, acknowledged burning a total of 1,172,072,308 SHIB. This number reflects a 5.62% increase compared to the previous week.
Shiba Inu Army Drives Token Scarcity
The ShibTorch portal also shared details of recent burns over the past few days. On May 31 at 6:01 UTC, 20,579,943 SHIB tokens were burned. On May 28 at 20:44 UTC, 13,091,149 tokens were removed. A day earlier, on May 27 at 5:30 UTC, 14,374,042 tokens vanished.
These actions are part of the community’s plan to decrease the total number of SHIB tokens available. The point of burning Shiba Inu tokens is to lower the supply which can boost its worth.
The recent burns show how active the community is in supporting this goal. Their participation in ShibTorch reveals that the SHIB Army cares a lot about making Shiba Inu better known in the crypto industry.
Meanwhile, technical analysts are also highlighting a possible rally in the price of Dogecoin (DOGE). As the Shiba Inu community drives SHIB’s scarcity, there’s a possibility it can mimic with DOGE’s upward price movement.

Low Fees and High Speed Drive Shiba Inu Adoption

As the Shiba Inu community make efforts to boost SHIB’s value, laws in other regions could influence the crypto world. For instance, the IMF has warned Pakistan that its plans to mine Bitcoin could affect energy security and currency rules.
