Shiba Inu Burn Rate Ignites 3,674% On Election Day, Will SHIB Move With Dogecoin Price To New ATH?

Shiba Inu (SHIB) recently witnessed a significant increase in its burn rate, surging 3,674% on U.S. presidential election day. Interestingly, this spike has come amid reignited interest in the SHIB price. This surge in activity cuts across the wider industry as traders look to capitalize on the election dynamics. Aside from Shiba Inu, Dogecoin has also witnessed a surge in trading activity and volume, and it is left to wonder if SHIB will rally alongside the Dogecoin price and reach new all-time highs. Shiba Inu Burn Rate Soars The burn rate of Shiba Inu is a measure of how much SHIB is permanently removed from circulation by sending it to inactive wallets. This controlled reduction of supply is intended to create scarcity, thereby potentially boosting SHIB’s price.

Particularly, Shibburn highlighted that over 53.3 million SHIB tokens were burned in the past 24 hours alone. Interestingly, a further look into the data shows that over 28.8 million SHIB tokens were burned in a single transaction. This uptick in SHIB burns has paralleled a notable increase in its market value, with SHIB climbing as high as 10% in the past 24 hours. This allowed SHIB to go on successive breaks above the $0.000017, $0.000018, $0.000019, and $0.000020 in rapid succession. Despite the notable Shiba Inu price uptick, its meme coin counterpart, Dogecoin, has witnessed more gains. Particularly, Dogecoin is up by about 20% in the last 24 hours, having recently crossed above $0.2 again for the first time since April 2024. Can SHIB Continue To Surge Alongside Dogecoin? Historically, both Shiba Inu and Dogecoin have seen simultaneous price movements, particularly when interest in one coin flows into higher trading volumes for the other. SHIB’s recent burn rate spike adds fuel to the debate over which token might lead in upcoming rallies, especially with DOGE seeing a sustained rise in interest.

However, as both SHIB and DOGE continue to experience heightened trading activity, both cryptocurrencies are expected to continue on the upswing for the rest of the month. As such, we could see SHIB creating a new 2024 high alongside Dogecoin in November, before both eventually go to challenge their all-time highs. Both SHIB and DOGE have seen slight pullbacks after their recent rallies, likely due to profit-taking as some holders lock in gains before the next possible upswing. At the time of writing, SHIB has found support at $0.0000183, currently trading around $0.0000188, while Dogecoin is holding steady at $0.197 Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com
