Shibburn has reported that during the period of the past 24 hours, various burn projects have gotten rid of 134,370,659 Shiba Inu coins in total by moving them to unspendable wallets to be locked permanently.

Burning SHIB through Amazon Audible

Four days ago, game dev Travis Johnson offered the SHIB community to join him in burning Shiba Inu via Amazon Audible on his Travis Johnson Twitter page.

Each registration of a new participant via his referral link gives him a $5 bounty, which equals half a million SHIB.

This Sunday, as part of his weekly burns, the developer of games for smartphones destroyed more than 61 million Shiba Inu, according to a recent tweet.
