SHIB Burn Report: A Closer Look

According to the data offered by Shibburn, a platform facilitating SHIB burn insights, data showcased a massive surge in the burning of tokens. Notably, a whopping 47872% surge was recorded in the amount of SHIB tokens burnt over the past twenty-four hours, with 28.12 million coins burnt.

The aggressive burning of SHIB tokens seems to come as a result of the SHIB community building up support for its tokens, creating scarcity by reducing the supply.

Shiba Inu Price Evaluation

The Shiba Inu price today witnessed a slump of 2.44% over the past twenty-four hours, reaching $0.000008391. Furthermore, the global market cap also witnessed a marginal decrease of 2.44%, as portrayed by market charts.

However, the twenty-four-hour trading volume noted a 36.38% increase, reaching $145.86 million today.

Interestingly, the aforementioned price slump witnessed by Shiba Inu comes contrary to the surge in the burning of tokens. Burning enormous amounts of tokens usually hints towards a reduction in the total number of tokens in circulation, resulting in a price hike.

However, the Shiba Inu Price going downhill has stirred up quite the speculation among crypto market enthusiasts.
