Shiba Inu Army Cheers As Burn Rate Soars 172%, Price Rebounds

Dogecoin killer Shiba Inu SHIB/USD has experienced a significant surge in its burn rate, increasing by an impressive 172%.

The surge coincides with a notable rebound in SHIB's market price, marking a promising turn for the dog-themed digital currency.

According to a post by Shibburn on X on Friday, the accelerated burn rate removed 5,221,667 SHIB tokens from circulation, effectively sending them to a "dead" wallet where they can no longer be traded or accessed.

This development follows a period of lackluster performance for SHIB, with its price struggling under broader market pressures.

However, the token has managed to recover, climbing from a low of $0.00001837 on April 13 to fluctuating within a range between $0.0000205 and $0.00002386.
