The popular burn tracker shows that over the last 24 hours, the daily SHIB burn rate made a substantial increase by 162.85%. This rise was reached thanks to 16,210,694 Shiba Inu coins burned in total via nine transactions that took all these meme coins to unspendable blockchain addresses.

SHIB price attempts breakout; new ATH after Bitcoin halving?
Within the period of the last 24 hours, the second largest meme cryptocurrency SHIB has attempted to recover, adding a marginal 2.40%. A decline of 1.2% followed, eliminating the rise attempt.
Overall, SHIB has lost 4.47% since Thursday this week and declined by 11.76% since Monday, April 1. This coincided with the recent major listing scored by the meme coin as Nexo cryptocurrency trading platform added its support and launched trading pairs based on it.
Overall, many analysts, including SHIB team members, expect Shiba Inu to reach a new all-time high in terms of its price after the upcoming Bitcoin halving takes place in late April.
