The Shiba Inu coin community has burned 410.74 trillion tokens from the initial supply. The circulating supply has dropped to 584.01 trillion amid the recent burn rate jump. While the relation between Shiba Inu burn rate and value is complex, the recent rally was supported by a massive increase in SHIB burn. Developer Kaal also burned a significant amount of tokens.

Meanwhile, Shytoshi Kusama has hinted at TREAT token launch and SHIFU coin launch, adding to investor curiosity on the matter.

Shiba Inu On-Chain Data

Shiba Inu coin sentiment for further upside has waned amid a drop in the broader crypto market. This has led to SHIB price fall this week.

The Exchange Netflow Total metric from on-chain data platform CryptoQuant indicates that net deposits on exchanges are high compared to the 7-day average. The deposits on crypto exchanges rose in the last few days, indicating higher selling pressure.

In addition, the number of active addresses fell by 7% in the last 24 hours. The recent decline in SHIB price due to profit booking and whale activity likely triggered negative sentiment.

SHIB Price Looks Weak After Recent Selloff?

Shiba Inu price fell more than 2% in the past 24 hours, with the price currently trading at $0.00002755. The 24-hour low and high are $0.00002741 and $0.0000288, respectively. Furthermore, the trading volume has decreased by 13% in the last 24 hours, indicating a decline in interest among traders.

The technical chart shows weakness amid the change in trend and signals from indicators such as Ichimoku cloud, RSI, and exponential moving averages. SHIB will likely touch the 50-day EMA at $0.0000275.

Moreover, The Fibonacci retracement analysis indicates Shiba Inu price will hit the 0.382 Fib Retracement level. However, the direction depends on trading volume and sentiment in the market as Shiba Inu coin burn rate also dropping. Notably, $0.000024 is the strong support level for the dog-themed meme coin.
