SHIB Sell-Off: Nearly a Trillion Tokens Unleashed by Whales

A significant decline in the burn rate of Shiba Inu (SHIB) has been observed, indicating one of the lowest levels in recent weeks. According to data from Shibburn, the burn rate has dropped by 88.65% in the past 24 hours, with less than one million SHIB being removed from circulation.

SHIB Burn Rate Dips Dramatically

As per Shibburn’s records, only 606,465 SHIB were transferred to dead wallets in the last 24 hours. The burn involved a single wallet, “0x56f…80b5,” which was recorded 12 hours before the time of reporting.This latest burn brings the total number of SHIB burned to 410,742,905,471,145 tokens. Meanwhile, the circulating supply stands at 584,163,863,061,304 SHIB, highlighting the extensive effort still required to significantly reduce the token supply.

Although a burn of 5,441,220 SHIB was recorded on December 29, accompanied by a 972% surge in the burn rate, the current drop to a multi-week low is not entirely negative. It is believed that this dip could precede a larger burn initiative, potentially impacting the token’s price.
