The aforementioned data source revealed a staggering overnight rise in the daily burn rate of the second biggest canine-based cryptocurrency in terms of market capitalization value, Shiba Inu (SHIB). Per recent tweet, this metric has skyrocketed by a whopping 49,646% with an impressive 175,311,356 SHIB coins transferred to unspendable blockchain addresses.

However, the weekly burn rate is currently in the red zone, floating below zero. Over the past week, the Shiba Inu community has managed to dispose of 195,050,744 SHIB, but the burn rate reading itself has dropped by 69.49%.
Shytoshi Kusama enters "fudder roast mode"
On Friday, the pseudonymous SHIB lead developer Shytoshi Kusama surprised the SHIB community with multiple tweets on their X feed. Among them was a short thread in which the SHIB lead slammed FUD makers, saying that he had entered the “fudder roaster mode.”
Kusama did not name anyone in particular. However, he pointed out that those bad actors often remove their tweets after publishing FUD against Shiba Inu in them: “Watch them delete messages. Now I will screenshot b4 I roast. Go ahead... use all your alts.”
After that, Shytoshi made a few reminders to the community, saying that Shiba Inu remains the number one token on the Ethereum chain and also that the much-anticipated TREAT token that will play a key role in the Shiba Inu ecosystem has not been released yet.
