The total supply of the Shiba Inu token is 999,982,697,981,254, and by burning 410,661,199,268,822 tokens, nearly half of the total cryptocurrency has been burnt.

According to Shibburn’s X post, on October 18, a total of 39,828,715 Shib tokens had been burnt. While comparing the two days’ data, it is evident that the token’s burn rate is remarkably surging.

Incepted in 2020, Shiba Inu emerges as a leading meme coin in the crypto space. While the token is inspired by the Japanese dog breed Shiba Inu, it serves as a mascot for Dogecoin, another significant player. Currently, Shiba Inu is priced at $0.00000674, after a plunge of 2.69% in one day and 1.20% in 7 days. With a $3.97 billion market cap, down by more than 2%, Shiba Inu secures the 19th position in the list of top cryptocurrencies.
