As reported by Shibburn platform that tracks the efforts of the SHIB army in burning this meme coin and occasionally sends some millions of SHIB to a dead wallet as well, over the past 24 hours, the rate at which Shiba Inu is currently being sent to unspendable wallets has increased by almost 260%.

In the meantime, some vague news about the upcoming release of Shibarium has been released.

SHIB army steps on it, burning tokens

Over the past 24 hours, the rate of removing SHIB from the circulating supply has gone up by 259.48% as 22,248,144 Shiba Inu has been sent to "inferno" wallets, i.e., dead addresses from which tokens cannot be withdrawn back or otherwise spent.

This is quite a breakthrough compared to yesterday's figure, when in the previous 24 hours only as little as 7,744,475 meme tokens were moved to dead-end wallets.

On Nov. 1, the amount of SHIB destroyed over the previous day totaled 23,232,755.
