The meme-inspired cryptocurrency has added over 30,000 holders in a month even as its price spikes.

New holders are adding to the cryptocurrency’s community at a time in which  SHB«s lead developer, Shytoshi Kusama, has suggested there’s an upcoming announcement that will “floor everyone”. The SHIB team has recently revealed  that entertainment industry veteran Marcie Jastrow has joined its metaverse team and will be working on the project, called “Shib: The Metaverse.”  Jastrow has over 20 years of experience working in the entertainment industry and was an “early pioneer in Immersive.”

As stated by the Cryptolifedigital, Kusama has in the past suggested the deal would “break the internet” noting many are unaware it’s happening right in front of them.

New holders as also hopping on board as SHIB burn rates increase, Earlier this week, Shiba Inu’s burn rate spiked 800% in a day to 12.6 billion tokens after the cryptocurrency’s burn commenced distributing $RYOSHI rewards to those who burn tokens.

The team behind the meme-inspired cryptocurrency launched the burn portal on April 23 and from that point on until rewards started being distributed the SHIBArmy burned around 29.5 billion $SHIB. After rewards started being distributed earlier this week, the figure jumped to 51.5 billion tokens at the time of publication.

Significantly, the SHIB community has shown through various polls it supports token burns over its Metaverse as part of the project’s long-term strategy, presumably believing a reduction in the currency’s circulating supply is more beneficial than its Metaverse.
