'Dogecoin Killer' Shiba Inu Setting Up For 'Inevitable Bull Run' As Burn Rate Soars 297% In Single Day

Zinger Key Points
  • Shiba Inu’s 15% weekly gains have pushed prices toward the $0.00002 mark, prompting traders to predict a bull run.
  • Shiba Inu burn rate in the past 24 hours spiked almost 300%.

‘Dogecoin Killer' Shiba Inu's SHIB/USD constant gains and rising burn rates could lead the meme coin towards an “inevitable bull run.”  

What Happened: Shibburn data shows the burn rate increased by 297.3% in the past 24 hours, with 899,940 coins removed from the ecosystem. Shiba Inu has been consistently burning coins over the past week, increasing the scarcity of SHIB.

Shiba Inu announced that it will be the title sponsor of ETHToronto which is scheduled for Aug.13 to Aug.14. The event is a highlight of the Blockchain Futurist Conference and marks a significant week in Canada's cryptocurrency and blockchain showcase.

In last year's event, Shiba Inu launched its Layer-2 solution, Shibarium, on the Ethereum blockchain. Shibarium has since processed more than 400 million transactions.

Shytoshi Kusama, Shiba Inu’s lead developer, said, "ETHToronto has always been an important event for us when it comes to making news and outlining the steps on our roadmap to becoming the ultimate decentralization hub."
