Shiba Inu Coin price forms extremely bullish pattern as key metric jumps

Shiba Inu Coin price continued rising on Tuesday, reaching its highest point since Oct. 27 as the burn rate and derivatives market activity soared.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) token was trading at $0.0000093, up by 35% from its lowest level this year. This surge has brought its valuation to over $5.5 billion. 

SHIB increased as key metrics continued to trend upward. Data compiled by Shibburn show that the token burn rate jumped by 278% in the last 24 hours to over 15.2 million. This token burn has increased the total token burn to over 410 trillion and the circulating supply to over 585 trillion tokens.

A token burn is a process in which cryptocurrencies are removed from circulation to improve tokenomics and reduce inflation.  

More metrics were highly bullish on Shiba Inu. For example, Nansen data indicate that the supply of Shiba Inu tokens on exchanges has continued to decline over the past few weeks and is now at its lowest level in months. A decline in exchange supply indicates that investors are not selling their tokens and are instead moving them to self-custody.

Meanwhile, the futures market has been highly encouraging, with the open interest soaring to the highest level since October 10. It reached a high of $145 million, substantially higher than the year-to-date low of $79 million. The volume of Shib tokens traded on centralized exchanges has soared.
