Token burning means permanently removing coins from circulation by sending them to a “dead wallet” that no one can access. For Shiba Inu (SHIB), burning is used to reduce supply and potentially increase scarcity.
🎯 Why SHIB Burns Tokens
SHIB launched with a massive supply (1 quadrillion tokens). A large supply makes it harder for price to rise significantly.
Burning helps:
Reduce total circulating supplyIncrease scarcity over timeSupport long-term price growth (if demand increases)Strengthen community engagement
🔥 How SHIB Burning Works
1️⃣ Community Burns
SHIB holders voluntarily send tokens to burn addresses.
The SHIB community often organizes burn campaigns.
2️⃣ Shibarium-Based Burns
Shibarium (SHIB’s Layer-2 network) introduced an automatic burn mechanism:
A portion of transaction fees on ShibariumConverted into SHIBSent to burn walletDone periodically
More network usage = more burns.
3️⃣ Developer Initiatives
The Shiba Inu team occasionally supports burn events tied to ecosystem growth.
📊 Does Burning Increase Price?
Burning alone does NOT guarantee price increase.
Price depends on:
DemandMarket sentimentCrypto market trendsUtility & ecosystem growthExchange listings
Burning helps only if demand remains strong or grows.
🚀 Long-Term Goal
SHIB aims to:
Expand ecosystem (DeFi, NFTs, metaverse)Increase Shibarium adoptionGradually reduce supply over years
The strategy is slow and long-term, not a quick pump method.
