Shiba Inu Burn is a community-driven initiative intended to minimize the behemoth circulating supply of the second-biggest meme coin. The community members of the SHIB Army pledge to deliberately send some of the tokens in the dead wallets to diminish them from the token supply. It follows the simple idea of demand and supply: the lesser the token supply, the higher the demand, and the higher the token price.
The community has been consistent in burning the tokens since the initiative started. Though the burning activities of last month were among the significant ones, the SHIB token hardly gained any momentum.
In contrast to over 15 Billion tokens burnt, SHIB’s price lost over 15% within the last 30 days, according to CoinMarketCap data.
