410 Trillion SHIB Burned and 4.8T Staked: Can Shiba Inu Price Surge 150%?
While the Shiba Inu price remains in a bear market, one crucial catalyst may help it surge in the near term: its soaring burn rate. SHIB trades at $0.000014, just a few points above the year-to-date low $0.00001025. This article explains the bullish case as the SHIB burn rate and staking ratio rises. Shiba Inu Price May Benefit From the Burn and Staking Rate A token burn is a crucial process in which a crypto project reduces the amount of tokens in circulation by sending them into an inaccessible address. It helps to reduce the supply and boosting its sentiment among investors. Shiba Inu price may benefit from the ongoing burn rate that has reduced the number of SHIB tokens in circulation. Data show that the network has burned over 420 trillion tokens since its inception, and the rate is accelerating. The daily burn rate rose by 14.76 million on Monday, leaving those in circulation at 584 trillion. Further, on-chain data shows that over 15,000 SHIB Army members have staked their xSHIB tokens. Over 4.83 trillion currently worth over $67 million, have been staked. That is a sign that these users anticipate the Shiba Inu price to continue rising over time. Shiba Inu burns its tokens in a number of ways. The most common one is where holders move their tokens to a dead address. Another one is where fees generated from its ecosystem like Shibarium is changed from BONE to SHIB and then incinerated.
