Can It Reach $0.00945 Any Sooner?

There are about 589 trillion SHIB tokens in circulation right now. The asset’s massive supply is one of the most significant barriers to its price. Vitalik Buterin’s token burn was one of the biggest catalysts for SHIB’s incredible rally in 2021.

Although Buterin received half of SHIB’s supply upon launch, he decided to burn 90% of the tokens he received. Buterin’s decision led to a substantial decrease in supply and, consequently, a price spike.
