SHIB Lead Kusama Teases Major Breakout with Mysterious Post

SHIB Lead Takes a Stand: Defending DAO and Ecosystem

Shytoshi Kusama, the pseudonymous leader of the Shiba Inu (SHIB) project, recently sent a mysterious tweet to the global SHIB community through his official X (formerly Twitter) account. In keeping with his signature style, which blends Eastern philosophy with anime culture, Kusama shared an anime GIF of a character smirking at their smartphone. The post appears to reflect Kusama’s bullish outlook as SHIB’s price experiences a sharp breakout.

SHIB Surges Over 27% as It Nears a Key Milestone

In the past 24 hours, SHIB has skyrocketed by 27.30%, marking a significant breakout in the meme coin’s price. The surge brought SHIB to a price of $0.00001917, inching closer to removing another zero from its value. 

This price increase comes in tandem with Bitcoin’s overnight jump of 4%, rising from $62,900 to over $65,400. Alongside the price spike, SHIB’s burn rate has seen an extraordinary surge. According to Shibburn, a total of 1,884,288,401 SHIB tokens were burned in the last 24 hours, representing an astonishing 33,818.39% increase.

These tokens were permanently removed from circulation through a series of transactions. This large burn event is rare, with only the SHIB developer team burning such significant amounts in a single go over the past year.

Shibarium’s New Burn Mechanism Boosts Token Burns

The recent hard fork on Shibarium, implemented in August, introduced a new automated burn system. This mechanism uses a portion of the gas fees on Shibarium, paid in BONE tokens, to buy SHIB tokens and send them to unspendable blockchain addresses, effectively removing them from circulation.

Over the past 24 hours, Shibburn recorded eight burn transactions. The largest burned 1.8 billion SHIB, while the others ranged from 1 to 5 million tokens.

SHIB’s price breakout and massive burns reflect strong community activity and continued support from its developers.
