The spike in burn rate comes after SHIB developer Kaal Dhairya admitted to making a mistake regarding the Shibarium Beta chain ID after the community accused the team of stealing the Rinia chain ID.

Dhairya, on Thursday, acknowledged his mistake of not rechecking at the time of the PuppyNet network launch and confirmed that the chains were not registered at that time. To rectify this situation, he said he will be redeploying a new version of the Shibarium Beta network with a new chain ID which will take "4 to 5 days."

Price Action: At the time of writing, SHIB was trading at $0.000010, up 2.43% in the last 24 hours, according to Benzinga Pro.
