One of the main causes could be community-led efforts to decrease the amount of SHIB in circulation, which would increase scarcity and thus increase the token\u2019s value. The <a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/shiba-inu\/\">price of SHIB<\/a> has dropped by 22.3% over the last seven days, dropping from $0.00001027 to $0.000007976 in just seven days.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.igms.io\/2023\/07\/22\/1692695318614-e3ce71e7-ce4c-4ba7-ba12-e420a667c280.jpg\" class=\"fr-fic fr-dib\" width=\"615\" height=\"383\"\/><\/p>\n<h2>Restoring confidence in Shiba Inu<\/h2>\n<p>The Shiba Inu community may have been motivated to take proactive actions to rebuild faith in the token as a result of the recent <a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/news\/shiba-memu-presale-hits-2-1m-as-shiba-inus-shibarium-faces-challenges\/\">disastrous launch of Shibarium<\/a>, in which more than 1,000 ETH became stranded in the project\u2019s ETH Bridge.<\/p>\n<p>However, it is important to remember that while burning tokens can make them scarce, it does not always result in a price increase. Shiba Inu, which was at press time trading for around $0.000007976, has recently endured quite some difficulties and has demonstrated tenacity on the market.<\/p>\n<p>The obvious decline in whale activity on the SHIB network is one of these difficulties. From a peak of 120 large transactions, there are now just 20 large transactions. This decrease in whale activity has potential drawbacks.<\/p>\n<p>On the one hand, it can suggest significant holders lack confidence, which might result in price instability. However, it might also lead to a more decentralized distribution of SHIB tokens, minimizing the price impact of significant sell-offs.<\/p>\n<p>The burn rate and its potential effects on the price of SHIB must be considered in light of other market factors. Although the Shibarium launch failure and the ETH bridge problem that followed were setbacks, the community\u2019s proactive approach to burning tokens shows how committed it is to the success of the meme coin.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-meta\">\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Share this article<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Categories<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Tags<\/h6>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/news\/shiba-inu-burn-rate-up-800-1-8-billion-shib-tokens-burned\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : CoinJournal: Latest Bitcoin, Ethereum &amp; Crypto News ) The Shiba Inu (SHIB) token has been on a bear trend following the unsuccessful Shibarium launch.
