The popular Japanese guard dog themed memecurrency Shiba Inu (SHIB) dropped below its crucial resistance line at $0.00001 on Friday, November 11th, 2022. Currently, members of the SHIB Army are contemplating on how to increase the market price of SHIB, as the crypto winter took its toll on the canine coin.
According to the Shibburn portal, the crypto community has to understand that โsupply + demandโ is what drives the price up and equals to holding without the possibility of selling.
Supply + Demand, that's what drives the price up. Burning is equivalent to "someone buying $100" in tokens and never "selling it", since it's locked forever. Imagine a team telling their holders that burning has no effect in price when their supply is in the quadrillions.

What Factors Can Reduce The Supply Of SHIB?
Further on, the Shibburn portal pointed out that the crypto community โcannot make calculations based on whatโs currently burning.โ As much as the SHIB burn rate looks great, with several millions of the token set ablaze every day, the reduction of supply will accelerate once Shibarium launches.

The Layer-2 solution is supposed to transform the memecoin into a self-sufficient ecosystem with a dedicated gas fee token Bone ShibaSwap (BONE). Besides, the forthcoming SB Visa Card that was mentioned earlier this year is going to contribute to the cause. On top of that, SHIB’s Web 3.0 project SHIB: The Metaverse is constantly revealing new pieces of the puzzle in partnership with the Hollywood-based audiovisual studio The Third Floor (TTF).
Itโs still early, several projects are yet to come, including Shibarium, which will significantly reduce supply. Canโt make calculations based on whatโs currently burning. Thatโs just my opinion.
