Overall, the Shiba Inu community, alongside developers, has successfully burned 410.73 trillion SHIB tokens since the project’s inception in 2020, representing nearly half of the original one-quadrillion supply.

Shibarium Layer-2 Blockchain Sees Rapid Growth

Shiba Inu’s layer-2 blockchain, Shibarium, is also making waves, recording new highs in several metrics this week. According to Lucie, the Shiba Inu team’s marketing lead, daily transactions on Shibarium soared to 4.77 million on October 24, compared to 1.7 million just two days prior.

The number of accounts on Shibarium has seen notable growth as well, surging from 127,588 on October 21 to 171,199 by October 25—a 34% increase in just a few days. Lucie expressed excitement over Shibarium’s growth, noting that development teams are working at full speed to support ongoing advancements. 

As SHIB continues to expand its blockchain ecosystem and community engagement, investors are keenly watching for further impacts on its value and long-term sustainability.
