SHIB daily burn rate drops by 63%, threatening long-term supply and deflation progress
Shiba Inu is back in the spotlight but not for reasons that many investors would hope. SHIB, after forming a bearish pattern on the daily chart has broken below a crucial support level, triggering fears about a possible 28% decline.
Despite a noticeable surge of trading activity, the token shows signs of waning momentum, raising alarms for short-term investors. The recent price drop occurs at a time of uncertainty in the market, adding further pressure to already unstable technicals.
SHIB is currently priced at $0.00001257. This represents a drop of 2.90% in the last 24 hour. Trading volume jumped by 88%, indicating heightened interest in spite of the decline. This spike in trading volume could be a sign of a tug-of war between bulls who are trying to buy the dip, and bears who are reinforcing downward pressure. The token formed a bottom locally and briefly recovered, but failed to break key resistance.
Support and resistance levels signal market struggle
The chart shows that a reliable zone of support exists between $0.00001180 to $0.00001200. This level was the base for SHIB’s recent drop and where consolidation began. Around this price range, buyers stepped in to temporarily stop further decline.
On the other side, resistance is building near $0.00001294 – $0.00001300. This range represents the previous daily high that the token was unable to maintain. This level has been dominated by sellers, indicating that SHIB needs a strong push in order to break through.
Indicators point to a weak but shifting momentum
Technically, both the MACD line and the signal line are still below zero. This indicates that the trend is still bearish. The lines are convergent, indicating a possible bullish crossover within the near future. This could slow the decline or even trigger an immediate recovery.
The RSI is at 39.76. This is just above the oversold levels. It is moving closer to neutral. If it crosses over 50, this may confirm a short bullish trend. The sentiment is cautious until then.
Burn Rate and Token Metrics Decline
SHIB’s tokenomics shows that over 410 trillion tokens from the original supply have been permanently burnt. The current total supply is around 589 trillion tokens, with almost 4.75 trillion staked in xSHIB.
In the last 24 hour, the token burning rate has dropped by 63%. During that time, only about 5 million SHIB Tokens were burnt. This slowdown could impact supply reduction efforts in the long-term, especially if demand does not pick up.
