Founder of Bigger Entertainment, Steven Cooper has tweeted that another 2.75 million Shiba Inu has been burned by his team. Meanwhile, Shiba Coffee Company has taken 11,851,851.85185185 SHIB out of circulation as well.
14.6 million SHIB burned just recently
After the aforementioned 2.75 million SHIB has been sent to the “null wallet”, from which nobody can withdraw or spend coins in any other manner, by the Bigger Entertainment team, the total amount of this meme-based crypto incinirated by them since October 2020 has become equal to 889,483,100 tokens.
Bigger Entertainment sells NFTs, tickets to events and merch for crypto and burns part of the fees earned for letting customers listen to music tracks. On December 26, during one of their scheduled “Burn parties”, they destroyed 239,600,144 Shiba Inu tokens.
Now, with yet another 2.75 million SHIB taken out of circulation, they have incinerated 889,483,100 since late October, when the company announced their SHIB burn campaign.
Besides, at the end of December, Cooper tweeted that in the coming sixty days, his team plan to double their SHIB burn rate as they are seeking new ways to burn Shiba Inu.
Besides, the head of Bigger Entertainment stated that they will be burning more SHIB later today. In late December, they announced that SHIB burn events would take place every month this year. Overall, more than three billion SHIB was burned in December by various members of the Shiba Inu community.
Another 2.75 Million #shib gone forever. Bringing our total burned to 889,483,100 since launching our campaign on Oct. 20th. We're excited for what 2022 will bring!
