Shiba Inu (SHIB) has begun the week with noticeable upward momentum, with key measures showing robust growth. Leading the trend is a huge increase in the burn rate, which has increased by 544.55%, moving 5,166,319 SHIB tokens to burn wallets. This token-burning habit has contributed to a shift in opinion within the Shiba Inu community, which previously saw greater burns as a good sign of price appreciation.
So far, the total supply of SHIB tokens has been steadily reduced, with 410.7 trillion SHIB burned from the original supply. Therefore, 583.5 trillion tokens are still in the market, which has a deflation view that positively affects the value of tokens with time.

Deflationary Process Fuels SHIB Price Stability
Token burns, as seen with SHIB, aim to reduce the circulating supply, which could lead to higher prices over time. While burning Shiba Inu tokens is not constant, the overall deflationary process has contributed to price stability. As of press time, SHIB is trading at $0.00001799, reflecting a 3.59% gain over the past 24 hours, though the token has experienced a slight weekly loss of 1.91%. The community-wide support for token burning has helped stabilize the coin’s price, with expectations of continued upward movement as more people engage with the ecosystem.
