Shiba Inu temporarily saw a period of zero burns before this quickly flipped as the SHIB burn address received fresh tokens.
Earlier on Saturday, Shiba Inu's (SHIB) burn tracker reported $0 worth of SHIB burned over 24 hours, marking a pause in SHIB burns. Shortly after, a single burn transaction of 20,408,894 SHIB by an unknown address given as '0x8172' changed this narrative.
In the last 24 hours, a total of 20.41 million SHIB has now been burned, according to Shibburn data at press time. This caused the daily burn rate to increase by 725%, ending a period of zero activity for the dog coin.
