The burns come at a time when Shiba Inu whales have gone all in on the dog-themed token. During the weekend, two different whales purchased 701.70 billion SHIB tokens worth a staggering $8.62 million.

Data from Etherscan.io shows that the second whale is a new entrant into the SHIB fold. The newly born whale purchased 541.32 billion SHIB tokens worth $6.65 million in a single transaction. However, the identity of the mysterious new whale remains to be unknown due to the nature of the decentralized world.

Shiba Inu Price Rise Incoming?

Shiba Inu experienced a phenomenal price rise as it shot up 1,000% in the indices in 30 days in October 2021. The latest ‘burn’ rate indicates that its price might see a positive momentum as millions of tokens are removed from circulation. However, SHIB has fewer chances of repeating its October 2021 feat as the crypto markets are now under bearish grips.

In addition, skyrocketing inflation, the upcoming CPI report, and the FOMC meeting next week could dampen the market’s growth. Therefore, despite the massive amount of ‘burns’, Shiba Inu’s price might either trade sideways or begin to dip this month.
