Trump on Middle East Chaos: ‘It’s Possible We Could Get Involved’ as Markets Brace for Fallout

Shiba Inu has seen a surge in burn activity, with the burn rate climbing by 
3,194% in the last 24 hours. According to data from burn tracker Shibburn, 
over 521.6 million SHIB tokens were permanently removed from circulation 
during this period. This sudden and sharp rise in burn rate has raised 
optimism within the SHIB community, although the token&#8217;s price action is 
struggling with bullish sentiment. Large Transactions Dominate SHIB Burn 
Activity As shown by data from Shiba Inu&#8217;s burn tracking website Shibburn.com, 
the latest burn wave was dominated by a few large transactions. A notable 
contributor was the wallet address beginning with &#8220;0xdb6,&#8221; which alone 
facilitated burns totaling over 500 million SHIB across multiple transactions 
to the BA-1 burn address. One of its largest single burns reached 310,744,788 
SHIB, followed closely by another 107,333,061 SHIB, and then another 
103,276,575 SHIB. Related Reading: Billionaire Snaps Up $100 Million Of Trump 
Coin – Details Other wallets also participated, including &#8220;0x28be&#8221; and 
&#8220;0x6176,&#8221; with each sending SHIB tokens into various burn addresses such as CA 
and BA-2. These contributions, although not on the same scale as the primary 
whale wallet, collectively helped elevate the day’s total burn count to over 
521 million SHIB. Together, these burn events reflect a push within the Shiba 
Inu community to increase SHIB burns, which had otherwise been short of 
noteworthy burns in recent weeks. Despite Burn Efforts, SHIB Supply Still 
Faces Uphill Battle Although 521 million SHIB tokens is a significant figure 
for a single day, it barely makes a dent in the meme token’s vast circulating 
supply, which currently sits above 589 trillion SHIB tokens. This context 
relays the challenge faced by the current Shiba Inu tokenomics. Despite 
periods of aggressive burns like the one witnessed in the past 24 hours, the 
token’s massive supply continues to weigh on its long-term price appreciation 
goals. However, the spike in burn rate is still a positive signal, 
particularly from a sentiment standpoint, especially now that the Shiba Inu 
price is struggling with sentiment. With SHIB currently trading within a tight 
range between $0.00001225 and $0.0000119, more Shib burns in the rest of the 
new week could bode well for its price action moving forward. As of the time 
of writing, Shiba Inu is trading at $0.00001192, down by 1.7% in the last 24 
hours. Despite the massive uptick in burn activity, market response is 
somewhat muted. However, there may be more happening behind the scenes.

Connection A Shiba Inu community member recently posted on the social media 
platform X, hinting that the project’s lead developer, Shytoshi Kusama, still 
has “several aces up his sleeve” for the Shiba Inu community. Although no 
further details were shared, past developments like the launch of Shibarium 
have influenced price trends. Hopefully, any new announcements could reignite 
interest and drive the Shiba Inu price token to new highs. Featured image from
