The Shiba Inu team confirmed in the latest blog that burning SHIB tokens manually will come to a halt this month. The team mentioned that the Shibarium layer-2 network will soon begin to burn SHIB tokens automatically from January 2024. Shibarium will transition to automation and will be programmed to burn tokens automatically putting an end to manual burns.

The development will aid Shiba Inu to start reducing its circulating supply and help the token to remain scarce. Shibarium will automatically burn SHIB tokens after it collects a total of $25,000 in total fees from users. This could make SHIB sustainably scale up in the indices and reach new numbers in the charts.

The rest 30% of the fees allocated will be used to maintain the layer-2 network’s functionality. Therefore, the Shibarium network works on a 70% – 30% ratio. While 70% of the fees will be utilized to burn SHIB, 30% will be used to maintain the network.

However, the first burns are yet to begin, therefore the number of SHIB tokens that will be sent to the dead wallet remains unknown. Shiba Inu needs to reduce its circulating supply considerably to reach the $0.01 milestone in the future. If Shibarium fails to burn trillions of tokens each year, then reaching $0.01 will remain to be a distant dream.
