Shiba Inu Team’s Ambitious Burn Plans: Crucial Details Revealed

Highlights

  • Shiba Inu's marketing lead, Lucie, announces a comprehensive token burn plan involving Shibarium's native tokens, including SHIB and others.
  • The token burn program will be funded by selling a new NFT collection named Sheboshis, with unsold items offered on Uniswap.
  • Ten percent of the NFT sales revenue will be dedicated to token burns, with specific allocations for SHIB, BONE, LEASH, and future tokens TREAT and SHI.

Shiba Inu’s marketing lead, Lucie, recently announced through a tweet the team’s comprehensive plan to initiate a burn of the platform’s native tokens. This initiative targets SHIB and extends to other major tokens used within the Shibarium ecosystem, including two new tokens yet to be launched. This move is part of a broader strategy involving selling a new NFT collection named Sheboshis, which will serve as the financial backbone for this ambitious token burn program.

New Burning Approach Adopted by Shibarium 

The Shiba Inu team has decided to allocate the revenue generated from the sale of the Sheboshis NFT collection towards the burning of several Shibarium native tokens, such as SHIB, BONE, and others. The unique aspect of this plan is that the Sheboshis not claimed by Shiboshi holders will be offered for sale on Uniswap, with all proceeds dedicated to token burning. Specifically, 10% of the revenue from these sales will be used for this purpose, with a detailed allocation of 6% for SHIB, 1% each for BONE and LEASH, and provisions for future burns of TREAT and SHI upon their release.

The decision to expand the burn to include tokens other than SHIB marks a significant strategy shift, underscored by the support of Shiba Inu’s lead developer, Shytoshi Kusama. Despite previous community suggestions to use BONE gas fees for burns, the team, under Kusama’s leadership, has opted for a more inclusive approach, ensuring a broader impact on the Shibarium ecosystem.

Shiba Inu NFT Sales to Fuel Token Burns

The revenue allocation from the NFT sales reveals a well-thought-out plan to support various facets of the Shiba Inu project and its community. While 50% of the sellout proceeds are earmarked for token burning and related activities, distributing the remaining funds is equally strategic.

A portion % of the revenue, 10%, is allocated to non-profit organizations, demonstrating the team’s commitment to social responsibility. Furthermore, 15% of the funds are designated for the Foundation, bolstering the infrastructure and operational capabilities of the Shiba Inu project.

The remaining 15% is allocated to the SHIB team, ensuring that the individuals driving the project are adequately compensated and motivated. This comprehensive allocation strategy underscores the team’s dedication to sustainability and growth, with the remaining 50% of proceeds directed towards expenses and the project’s treasury. This financial planning is crucial for realizing the “Network State,” an ambitious goal outlined in the Shib Paper to achieve a perpetually autonomous and fully decentralized ecosystem.
