In a significant move that caught the attention of crypto enthusiasts, the Shiba Inu community burned more than 2.37 billion SHIB tokens in September, a remarkable effort aimed at shrinking the supply and potentially boosting the token's value. This massive burn rate marked a 249% increase from August, signaling growing efforts from the community to create opportunities for SHIB holders.
Burning SHIB: September's Impressive Stats
Data from Shibburn, a platform tracking SHIB burns, revealed that 2.37 billion tokens were destroyed in 131 transactions last month. With SHIB currently valued at $0.00001672, the total amount burned represents around $39,767. The dramatic 249% spike in the burn rate, compared to the modest 681 million SHIB burned in August, has set the stage for potential price action.
Big Players, Big Burns: What Drives the Numbers?
A significant part of the burning came from a single transaction linked to Binance. On September 26, a wallet burned 1.87 billion SHIB, valued at $35,643 at the time, making up a staggering 78.7% of September's total burns. Meanwhile, other contributors included the "Living The Dream" project, which burned 250 million SHIB on September 1 as part of their Shib Burn Series. The community has been actively finding ways to contribute, hoping these efforts will yield greater rewards.
October’s Slow Start: What’s Next for SHIB?
Despite September's high burn rate, October has started much slower, with only 2.94 million SHIB burned in the first few days. The daily burn rate has plummeted by 92%, leaving some wondering if this is just a lull or if bigger burns are around the corner. The community remains watchful, waiting for the next big move that could set the stage for future earnings.
The Bigger Picture: What's the Plan?
The goal of these burns is clear—reduce the circulating supply of SHIB to drive up its value, giving holders an opportunity to capitalize on price movements. With the token currently trading at $0.00001672, many are keeping a close eye on how these burn efforts could pay off in the long run. The community remains determined, viewing these burns as steps toward stabilizing and growing the token’s worth.
