There are two factors driving Shiba Inu’s price rally: the spike in SHIB token burn rate and the upcoming Shibarium beta launch. 

Based on data from Shibburn, the Shiba Inu burn portal, a total of 9.8 million SHIB tokens have been burnt within the past 24 hours. The massive burn came alongside Shytoshi Kusama’s announcement regarding the upcoming Shibarium beta launch. 

These bullish developments are expected to fuel the current uptrend in SHIB, in the short-term.
