Shiba Inu Coin Burn Rate Skyrockets

Today, the Shiba Inu burn rate rocketed by an astounding 28878.28%, according to Shibburn data. This burn led to the destruction of 17.71 million SHIB tokens. Moreover, this significant increase in the burn rate has captured the attention of the crypto community, particularly due to the involvement of two notable wallets.

The highest burn was initiated by the wallet 0x608…, known for its consistent participation in the Shiba Inu burn initiative. This wallet alone burned a staggering 13.32 million SHIB tokens via two transactions. Another wallet, 0xa2d…, contributed to the effort by transferring 4.17 million SHIB tokens to a dead wallet, effectively removing them from circulation.

Furthermore, other communities participants initiated smaller SHIB tokens burns. The purpose of burning Shiba Inu coins is to reduce the overall supply, theoretically increasing the scarcity and potentially boosting the token’s value. With such a significant amount of SHIB removed from the market in a single day, speculation is growing about a positive impact on the SHIB price.

Historically, burn events have had a mixed impact on the price of SHIB. While reducing supply can lead to price appreciation, the actual effect depends on various factors, including market sentiment, overall demand, and broader crypto market conditions. In the short term, the news of such a high burn rate may drive some positive sentiment and buying activity among SHIB investors, potentially leading to a price increase.

Is SHIB Price Reversal Ahead?

However, long-term price sustainability will depend on continued community support and broader adoption of SHIB. Additionally, the overall performance of the crypto market will play a crucial role. These sentiments are influenced by macroeconomic factors and regulatory developments.

The price of SHIB has recently found temporary support around $0.00001688. If this support level holds, Shiba Inu could rebound and reach $0.00002129, which would be a 28% increase from its current position. However, if the price falls, it may find support lower at $0.000012. It’s also important to note that $0.00002129 serves as a temporary resistance level.
