Why Is SHIB Burn Rate Increasing?<\/h2>\n

In detail, the number of burnt tokens on the Shiba Inu network did not exceed 1 million SHIB on January 26. Yesterday’s amount was one of the lowest numbers of assets developers has burned on the network. So, the seeming spike in burn rate could be due to a default in the <\/span>SHIB burning<\/span> machine yesterday. <\/span><\/p>\n

According to analysts, this percentage spike wasn’t triggered by increased network activity. Also, it didn’t represent a large number of actually burnt tokens.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Token burns help to reduce the number of coins in circulation. It helps increase an asset’s scarcity and possibly boost the token’s price when increased supply pushes it down. <\/span><\/p>\n

For instance, on January 17, <\/span>the SHIB token burn<\/span> surged by 613% within 24 hours, and the coin broke the bearish traders’ expectations, rising above 20% on the day. However, a surge in price did not accompany the recent rise in the token burn rate.<\/span><\/p>\n
