Shiba Inu Burn At Christmas Party Removes 1.14 Billion Coins

The Shiba Inu coin burning exercise is expected to reduce the supply of the coin, which may help its price go up.

This Christmas, 239 million Shiba Inu (SHIB) tokens, worth approximately $9,000 were burned at a party organised by Steven Cooper, the CEO of Bigger Entertainment, the world바카라s first crypto-based record label. The SHIB burn was streamed live to the Shiba Army, according to a report in investing.com.

Cooper had announced on December 22 that they have pooled together about 176 million SHIBs and will be burning them at their Christmas party.

바카라We're set to burn 176 Mil #shib & growing at our burn party Dec. 26th. We're burning live. Lets give one final push #shibarmy! Buy a burn ticket on our website for $5. 100% burned. This saves gas fees instead of everyone doing separate burns,바카라 Copper tweeted that day.

A crypto coin-burning exercise refers to the removal of freely floating coins that are in circulation in the market. What is essentially done in this exercise is that the said number of coins are purposefully sent to an unusable or inactive crypto wallet address so that they may never come into public circulation ever again.

When Shiba Inu was created it had one quadrillion coins in total circulating supply. However, about 50 per cent of this supply was gifted to Ethereum바카라s co-founder Vitalik Buterin, who then donated a majority of it towards an Indian privately-held Covid-19 relief fund.

The remaining supply of SHIB was locked in Uniswap. But such a big number of coins circulating in the market was preventing its price from moving further up. It was a classic demand and supply situation. So, to limit this, the creators of SHIB started burning a certain amount of SHIB earlier this year. The most recent burn by the Bigger Entertainment CEO resulted in the burning of 1.14 billion coins so far.

Moving Ahead

Shiba Inu was started as a joke rival to DOGE in August 2020 by someone who goes by the pseudonym 바카라Ryoshi바카라. Since then, SHIB has come along a long way to establish itself.

Listings: The meme coin was listed on the Australian crypto exchange CoinJar just ahead of Christmas. In a blogpost they said, 바카라Starting today you can buy, sell, send and trade Shiba Inu ($SHIB) using your CoinJar Wallet. With CoinJar Card you can even use SHIB to do some last-minute Christmas shopping.바카라 This was a major positive development for the creators of SHIB who are trying to find more use cases of its token.

Shiba Inu was also listed on Taiwan바카라s biggest crypto exchange BitoEx earlier this December, which was announced in a tweet.

Metaverse: Earlier in December, Shiba Inu바카라s core developers (SICD) and its creator Ryoshi announced that they are trying to build their own metaverse 바카라Oshiverse바카라. They were quoted as saying, 바카라We are working on so many parts of Shiba Inu like Shibarium, Shi, Shibanet, The Decentralized Shiboshi Game, Incubator, and much more that won't become visible until the near future.바카라 The metaverse field has become one of the fastest-growing in the crypto industry, ever since the parent company of facebook changed its name to Meta.

Roadblocks On The Way

Last week, Canada바카라s telehealth company 바카라Ask the Doctor바카라, which had earlier bought and continued to hold various cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Cardano, Polkadot, Dogecoin, Floki Inu, and Shiba Inu in its balance sheet, suddenly took a spiteful turn against SHIB.

They have reportedly sold all of their SHIB tokens and alleged that the creators of SHIB are a fraud since they are still anonymous. They were quoted as saying in a tweet by Cryptopotato, 바카라Why is @ShytoshiKusama not revealing himself? Easier for scammers to hide from law enforcement and people coming after you? $shib is a scam #shibarmy, the 1% real is brainwashed and 99% is bots.바카라
