SHIB's Burn Rate Soars Close to 50,000% as Price Prints a Sturdy 10% Surge Overnight

Data shared by the Shibburn tracking platform in a recently published Twitter post shows that in the past day the burn rate of the popular meme-inspired cryptocurrency has demonstrated a mind-blowing five-digit increase.

The burn rate of Shiba Inu (SHIB) has soared by nearly 50,000% in the past 24 hours, according to data shared by the Shibburn tracking platform in a recently published X post.

This metric has skyrocketed by a whopping 49,646% with an impressive 175,311,356 SHIB coins transferred to unspendable blockchain addresses. There have been five burns so far with the biggest one carrying 169,287,021 SHIB into the burn portal. Three more helped to burn 4,023,335, and two times by 1,000,000 SHIB meme coins.

However, the weekly burn rate is currently in the red zone, floating below zero. Over the past week, the Shiba Inu community has managed to dispose of 195,050,744 SHIB, but the burn rate reading itself has dropped by 69.49%.

Shytoshi Kusama enters "fudder roast mode"

On Friday, the pseudonymous SHIB lead developer Shytoshi Kusama surprised the SHIB community with multiple tweets on their X feed. Among them was a short thread in which the SHIB lead slammed FUD makers, saying that he had entered the “fudder roaster mode.”

I am in fudder roast mode. Go ahead give me more fud to lol at during the podcast.

Kusama did not name anyone in particular. However, he pointed out that those bad actors often remove their tweets after publishing FUD against Shiba Inu in them: “Watch them delete messages. Now I will screenshot b4 I roast. Go ahead… use all your alts.”

After that, Shytoshi made a few reminders to the community, saying that Shiba Inu remains the number one token on the Ethereum chain and also that the much-anticipated TREAT token that will play a key role in the Shiba Inu ecosystem has not been released yet.
