More than 1.2 billion Shiba Inu tokens were burned over the past week including a single coin burn of 159 million (total of about $30,000). Shiba Inu supporters have been burning coins to inflate the Shiba Inu price ever since Ethereum co-founder burnt 41% of the $SHIB supply in May last year, sending the market cap from the thousands to $14 billion in a matter of days.
EverGrow Coin meanwhile has burned 52.85% of its supply according to bscscan.com. Unlike Shiba Inu, EverGrow Coin actually has a built-in mechanism to buyback $EGC tokens from the open market and burn them permanently from the supply.
According to the EverGrow Coin chairman Sam Kelly the project is set to burn over 5 trillion $EGC monthly from here on out. This is thanks to a huge spike in volume following the listing of EverGrow Coin on DigiFinex and the 14% transaction tax that makes EverGrow Coin the top reflection token on the Binance Smart Chain and a leader in the hyper-deflationary breed of crypto tokens.
A total of 2% of each buy/sell transaction in EverGrow Coin is put aside to once a month buy up $EGC tokens from the market and remove them permanently from the supply (buyback and burn). As Sam Kelly explained, the coin burning puts 5 trillion-worth of buys onto the EverGrow Coin price charts (like on PooCoin), and artificially inflates the price of EverGrow Coin.
EverGrow Coin has already burnt 11% more tokens from supply than Shiba Inu, and with an effective roadmap nearing completion, the extra volume expected in the coming weeks should see well over $2 million collected for buyback and burn this April 2022.
Shiba Inu coin burns have become the top strategy by which SHIB supporters see the token reaching a price of $1 in the future. According to shibburn.com more than 1.4 billion $SHIB tokens were burned in the last week.
This adds to the 313 billion tokens burned in the last year. The burn rate is impressive, however, it's worth noting that EverGrow Coin could burn 5 trillion tokens every month thanks to its built-in mechanism to burn coins and remove them from the supply. Shiba Inu is decentralised, meaning that coin burns are financed from investors' own pockets.
However, coin burns have proved the most effective way to boost the Shiba Inu price – especially at a time when the Shiba Inu relative strength index has fallen below 50. The reduced supply should increase demand for the fewer $SHIB tokens available in crypto exchanges and markets.
