What’s Happening with SHIB This Year?
Shiba Inu’s price has experienced a notable 26% drop within the last 30 days. Additionally, the burn rate has decreased by a staggering 90%, which could potentially lead to further declines ahead.
Another Cause for Concern
Recent data shows that the second-largest meme coin, SHIB, has been underperforming with a price decline of around 26% over the past month. Consequently, its market capitalization has fallen below $8 billion, positioning it as the 16th largest cryptocurrency globally.
- Indicators suggest that this downward trend may continue in the near future.
- A significant example is the burn rate, which has plummeted by over 90% weekly, resulting in less than 13 million tokens burned.
Shibarium’s Recent Update
Shiba Inu’s layer-2 scaling solution, Shibarium, has recently introduced a new burning mechanism known as the “Burn Portal.” This initiative aims to reduce the overall supply of tokens, similar to SHIB’s primary burning program.
- Both SHIB’s burning mechanism and Shibarium’s operate differently but have the same goal of decreasing token supply.
- The original Shiba Inu burn program relies on community involvement and manual burns, where holders can voluntarily send tokens to a null address to remove them from circulation.
- BONE, the governance token in the Shibarium ecosystem, is crucial for validators and delegators. It is used to pay gas fees and interact within the network.
- On Shibarium, SHIB burning is tied to transaction fees where a portion of the fees, paid in BONE, is used to purchase SHIB tokens. These tokens are then sent to a null address for burning when a certain amount of BONE tokens are accumulated.
