Shiba Inu's deflationary mechanism picked up pace heading into the first week of July, with data from burn-tracking platform Shibburn showing that more than 13.8 million $SHIB were permanently removed from circulation in the 24 hours ending July 5. According to @BSCNews, that figure marks the highest single-day burn total recorded in the past month.
The weekly burn rate also turned positive, with 39.17 million SHIB sent to dead wallets over the seven-day period. Over the past 30 days, a combined 112.16 million SHIB have been taken out of supply.
Shibburn tracks the destruction of SHIB tokens by scanning transaction records on the Ethereum blockchain, where the token operates as an ERC-20 asset. The burn address is a wallet that nobody owns or can access, meaning tokens sent there are permanently removed from circulation.
The burn rate measures how quickly SHIB is being removed from supply, though short-term spikes do not automatically create a lasting price increase. Shibarium, the project's Layer-2 network, has made burning more systematic by linking network activity and transaction fees directly to the burn process.
The scale of the task remains significant. SHIB's total supply still runs into the hundreds of trillions, meaning even large burn events barely dent the overall figure. Even so, burn activity can influence investor sentiment, with higher activity often creating a perception of growing scarcity.
The latest uptick in burns came as SHIB was trading up 1.66% in the 24 hours around the July 4 period, reaching approximately $0.0000044.
