Shiba Inu Burn Rate Hits 26,000% on the Last Day, Destroying 1.4 Billion SHIB in 24 Hours.

The second-largest meme-based cryptocurrency, shiba inu, has burned a substantial number of tokens in the last 24 hours. According to statistics, the network's burn rate has increased by 26,592 percent, resulting in the destruction of 1.4 billion SHIB.

SHIB team member "Archangel" disclosed on February 22 that the project would have a decentralised exchange (dex) dubbed Shibaswap 2.0 with a burn gateway. The gateway is intended to help boost a deflationary supply, and SHIB team members formed Defense Breed, a project defence team, in mid-March.

The Defense Breed intends to improve SHIB's "communication and transparency," as well as "defend the ecosystem from any hostile initiatives or individuals attempting to exploit the community." The shiba inu (SHIB) supply is now burning tokens at an incredibly high rate, significantly quicker than Ethereum's burn rate.

Statistics from shibburn.com show that, 1.4 billion SHIB were burned at a rate of 26,592 percent in the last day. On March 14, SHIB's burn rate reached 6,700 percent, resulting in the destruction of 745 million SHIB in a single day. To put things in perspective, the Ethereum blockchain has destroyed 4,098 ether in the previous 24 hours. With $13.2 million burned in the last day, Ethereum's 24-hour worth is significantly more valuable. On the other hand, the 1.4 billion tokens burned by SHIB are only worth $34,554.

'Burning SHIB Is a Core Aspect of Our Ecosystem,' says a member of the Shiba Inu team.

Three addresses alone burnt 59,998,118 SHIB, or $1,448 at today's SHIB conversion rate, in the last five hours. The meme-token SHIB has had a rough week, losing 7.6 percent in the last seven days. SHIB, on the other hand, has risen 39,795 percent versus the US dollar so far this year.

In terms of market capitalization, SHIB is the second-largest meme-based asset, trailing only dogecoin (DOGE). While DOGE has a market cap of $19.1 billion, SHIB has a market cap of roughly $13.2 billion, ranking 15th out of 13,617 cryptocurrency market caps.

The Defense Breed will be in charge of screening partners, cooperation, and incoming projects, according to SHIB project executives. A SHIB team member known as "Trophias" explained the importance of the SHIB burn gateway in a blog post about the Defense Breed. Trophias remarked at the time, "Burning SHIB is a vital element of our ecosystem, and we are continually researching new techniques to burn SHIB via utility."
