Shiba Inu burn portal revelation excites SHIB holders

Shiba Inu price has displayed some level of activity over the week after the pseudonymous Twitter user “SHIB Informer” shared a preview of the user interface (UI) of the burn mechanism in Shibarium. With the reveal, the entire SHIB army now has an idea of what is ahead.

An evaluation of the burn portal’s interface from the leaked data shows that Shibarium will support swapping accumulated BONE tokens for SHIB. The Shiba Inu tokens will be channeled to the burn address, in line with the original concept of charging transaction fees in BONE tokens. The address will accumulate the fees until it attains a specific threshold before users can initiate the burn transaction.

The authenticity of the leaked images has been confirmed by LucieSHIB, a content marketing specialist within the Shiba ecosystem, clarifying that they represent the alpha version of the mechanism, with openness to alterations upon its official launch. 

Note that it is only the alpha version (not beta yet), so the final version may be different, but it’s good for a look. BONE will convert to SHIB and burn SHIB. Each transaction will add to the burn pool. Then anyone will be able to trigger the burn.

Noteworthy, the burn process will be manual instead of automatic, giving users an integral role in kickstarting the burn transaction upon attainment of the accumulation threshold. The leaked interface is still in the latent stages, with openness for alterations before the public beta sale.

Shiba Inu burning mechanism and its influence on SHIB price

Ahead of the Shibarium’s developments and release, whales have started accumulating SHIB tokens. This is inspired by a hope that Shibarium’s developments could significantly influence Shiba Inu price. Based on data from IntoTheBlock, over 2.82 trillion SHIB tokens have been amassed over the past week alone.

Shiba Inu tokens burning will work well with the burn mechanism under structuring, with the documentation revealing plans to burn 70% of its base transaction fees in SHIB. The other 30% will then be allocated to the network for maintenance.

If it works well, the strategy will influence the token’s supply and, in the process, boost Shiba Inu market value to the psychological $0.00001000 level. At the time of writing, Shiba Inu (SHIB) price is $0.00000857, a daily rise of 0.1%
