Shiba Inu (SHIB) is one of the most popular cryptocurrency projects in the market. However, the asset’s price has struggled to gain momentum, even after launching a layer-2 network last year. The popular memecoin has been in a downtrend after hitting its all-time high of $0.00008616 in October 2021.

However, the SHIB team is working on a new burn mechanism, rumored to burn trillions of tokens yearly. If the team can reduce the project’s supply, SHIB’s price may begin to generate steam.
