- The total Shiba Inu that burned in April was over 1.6 billion.
- SHIB maintained the second-largest market cap.
The volume of Shiba Inu [SHIB] burned in April amounted to billions. Yet, this substantial burn did not translate into a noticeable impact on the price. Additionally, a significant decline was observed in the number of active addresses associated with Shiba Inu during the same period.
Billions of Shiba Inu taken out of circulation
Recent data from Shibburn indicated that in April, over 1.6 billion Shiba Inu tokens were burned across 204 transactions. Further analysis revealed that a substantial number of SHIB tokens, over 410 trillion, are currently held in null addresses.
In contrast, approximately 582 trillion tokens remain in circulation.
At the time of this writing, the total number of tokens burned was 2.3 million. Despite this significant burn rate, it appears that the reduction in the volume of SHIB tokens in circulation has not notably impacted the overall volume remaining in circulation.
