Shibburn, The Shiba Inu (SHIB) virtual bonfire, officially announced that there’s been nearly 200 million SHIB tokens set ablaze in the last 24 hours. Interestingly, 139 out of 200 million were burnt in a single transaction. One reason behind this act could be the attempt to trigger a spike in Shiba Inu’s (SHIB) price, but the developers of Shiba Inu definitely added some extra motivation with $BONE rewardcs and the upcoming SB Visa Card.
In the past 24 hours, there have been a total of 174,089,136 $SHIB tokens burned and 15 transactions. Visit https://t.co/t0eRMnyZel to view the overall total of #SHIB tokens burned, circulating supply, and more. #shibarmy
