The Shiba Inu community successfully burned approximately 3.78 billion SHIB tokens in the month of August. The recently launched BEP-20 token ShibaBae, 1Cent token, and Travis Johnson’s SHIB Super Store, have been recognized as the ‘Top SHIB Burners of the Month.’
Considering the large supply of the second-largest dog-themed token, Shiba Inu, the community launched a burn initiative to reduce the circulating supply of the token. More so, to incentivize Shib burning, the Shib Burn Portal reward token, Ryoshi was introduced.
Ever since the start of this initiative, the teeming community members have consistently been sending millions of SHIB tokens to dead wallets. Accordingly, the circulating supply of Shiba Inu has been recording a steady reduction in quantity.
