• SHIB has spiked by 2.45%, over the past 24 hours.

  • The burn rate of SHIB is down by 45.12% in the last 24 hours, 802,246 tokens were burnt.

The meme coin market is priced green, and several meme coins have briefly spiked from their recent lows. Among them, the dog-themed meme coin, Shiba Inu (SHIB), has seen a price recovery of 2.45% over the past 24 hours. 

On the other hand, SHIB’s burn rate has been displaying a decline of over 45.12% in the past 24 hours; approximately 802,246 SHIB tokens have been burned, as per the data. To date, the Shiba Inu ecosystem has burned a total of 410.72 trillion SHIB, leaving over 583.42 trillion tokens left in circulation.

Recently, the Shib project launched an upgrade for its burn mechanism on the Shibarium Layer-2 network. This automation-led upgrade uses 70% of Shibarium’s transaction fees and enables users to convert it into SHIB tokens and burn them. This is presumably one of the anticipated features within the community.
