414 million SHIB burn expected this month
The @shibburn team also tweeted that so far it has earned $3,900 to buy SHIB with and burn it. This was enough to purchase 179,063,360 tokens. By the end of the month, they expect to increase this fiat amount to $8,000-$9,000, enough to buy 368,324,125 or 414,555,504 SHIB, respectively.
Excellent guys! $3.9k is the total in profits that will be burned once money is cleared, around February 21st. The last two days we had more activity. Going by those numbers we can burn anywhere from $8k to $9k next month with just the website. More to come.
These profits are being made through the aforementioned website that was launched about two weeks ago. One of the ways this website gains profit for burning SHIB is users clicking on advertisements. However, @shibburn warns not to overuse that option in order not to get sanctioned by Google.
56.6 million SHIB gone in 24 hours
According to the same source, over the past 24 hours, overall 56,610,790 have been destroyed. By now, 410,301,843,009,529 Shiba Inu tokens have been incinerated overall, which is 41.03018% of the initial quadrillion SHIB emission.
