Whales transfer billions of SHIB

According to the above-mentioned source, over the past few hours, almost 17 billion Shiba Inu coins have been shifted by cryptocurrency whales.

The transactions were mainly conducted as billions of SHIB were withdrawn from Kraken and deposited to OKX.

Upcoming Shibarium hard fork announced

In a tweet published earlier today, the official Shiba Inu X/Twitter account teased the approaching “hard fork” scheduled on May 2. However, this seems to be merely a major upgrade since hard forks traditionally assume the emergence of a new blockchain with an entirely new coin.

The X/Twitter post revealed that the upgrade will allow faster block production on the Shibarium layer-2 blockchain, the transaction fees will become more predictable after the new update is integrated.

Still, nothing seems to have been said about the automated burn mechanism that has been tested on testnet Puppynet since January.

SHIB burns are still being conducted manually, mostly by the SHIB army, with the developer team sometimes joining in when it manages to collect enough BONE off Shibarium transaction fees.

Over the past 24 hours, the burn rate has been negative, going into the red 88.96% with merely 4,422,643 SHIB removed from the circulating supply.
